handsome  form. — W.  Bell.  V.  obtusifolia  Jord.  The 
smaller-flowered  plants  are  typical ;  some  of  those  sent 
are  unusually  large-flowered. — B.D. 
V.  arvensis  Murr.,  var. - .  Plentiful  in  potato  field, 
Knighton,  Leics.,  v.c.  55,  Sept.,  1909.  A  very  pretty  form, 
unlike  any  I  have  hitherto  seen. — W.  Bell.  F.  arvatica 
Jord.  The  intermediate  and  upper  leaves  are  less  acute 
than  in  the  majority  of  the  plants  of  this  species  that 
I  have  seen,  but  the  general  habit  is  typical.  I  have 
previously  seen  arvatica  collected  in  Leicestershire  at 
South  Knighton  and  at  Cadby  by  Mr.  Bell.— E.D. 
V.  arvensis  Murr.,  var.  subtilis  (Jord.).  Hellingly,  E. 
Sussex,  v.c.  14,  June,  1908. — Coll.  Miss  E.  Bray.  Comm.

V.  arvensis  Murr.,  var.  agrestis  (Jord.).  Saltby,  Leics., 
v.c.  55,  Aug.  27,  1909.— A.  R.  Horwood.  Not  agrestis. 
I  should  refer  this  to  V.  subtilis  Jordan. — E.D. 
Polygala  calcarea  F.  Schultz.  Hilly  pasture  near 
Combe  Hay,  N.  Somerset,  v.c.  6,  June  7,  1909.  This  was 
pointed  out  to  me  by  my  brother,  Mr.  Prank  Samson,  and 
is  the  subject  of  a  note  in  Jl.  Bot.,  Jan.,  1910,  by  Messrs. 
C.  Bucknall  and  J.  W.  White. — Ida  M.  Roper.  Typical 
P.  calcarea—  A.B.J. 
Tunica  Saxifraga  Scop.  At  the  foot  of  a  land  cliff  on 
ground  adjoining  a  public  path  near  the  Railway  Station, 
Tenby,  Pembrokesh.,  v.c.  45,  Sept.  2,  1909.  First  sent  to 
me  for  naming,  in  the  summer  of  1908,  by  Mr.  G.  Ginger, 
a  Manchester  botanist.  I  visited  the  spot  in  the  summer 
of  the  following  year,  and  found  the  plant  in  great  plenty. 
It  had  evidently  been  established  there  for  many  years, 
and  had  most  likely  escaped  from  a  garden  at  the  top  of 
the  cliff.  Mr.  S.  H.  Bickham  tells  me  he  saw  the  plant  in 
this  station  about  three  years  ago,  and  that  it  occurs 
elsewhere  in  the  same  neighbourhood.- — C.  Bailey. 
Tilia  platyphyllos  Scop.  Limestone  rocks,  Craig 
Cille,  near  Crickhowell,  Breconsh.,  v.c.  42,  Aug.  23,  1909. 
(Alt.  about  1300  ft.).  In  a  position  in  which  the  tree 
could  not  possibly  have  been  planted.  See  Ji.  Bot.,  1909, 
p.  432. — A.  Ley.
