F.  Townsend,  but  it  does  not  quite  agree  with  that  plant  in 
that  it  is  more  robust  in  habit.  1  send  a  few  sheets  for 
determination.^ — W.  Bell.  A  form  of  E.  nemorosa,  with 
fewer  branches  than  usual. — C.B.  E.  curta  Wettst.,  var. 
glabrescens  Wettst. — E.S.M. 
E.  nemorosa  H.  Mart.,  forma.  Bagworth,  Leics.,  v.c. 
55,  Aug.  1911.  This  form  was  plentiful  on  the  railway 
bank  near  Bagworth  Station.  The  hairs  do  not  agree 
with  those  of  typical  nemorosa ,  but  it  does  not  appear  to 
be  referable  to  any  other. — W.  Bell.  This  is  typical 
E.  nemorosa. — C.B.  No;  this  is  E.  curta ,  var.  glabrescens 
Wettst.  E.  nemorosa  is  glabrous  according  to  Wettstein.

Odontites  rubra  Gilib.,  probably  var.  rotundata  Ball. 
Field  near  the  Spey,  Nelty  Bridge,  E.  Inverness,  v.c.  96, 
Sept.  1909. — Coll.  E.  Armitage.  Comm.  S.  H.  Bickham.  I 
have  no  description  or  specimen  of  Ball’s  variety  for 
reference ;  but  the  leaves  are  mostly  rounded  at  the  base, 
not  narrowed,  as  in  B.  serotina  Dumort.  Is  not  Hudson 
an  earlier  authority  than  Gilibert  for  the  specific  name  ? 
—E.S.M.  Dr.  F.  N.  Williams,  in  his  “  Prodromus,”  gives 
“rotundata  Ball”  as  a  synonym  of  “serotina  Dum.”  The 
specimen  looks  interesting,  but  better  material  is  necessary 
for  critical  forms;  there  seems  hardly  a  true  leaf  left! 
Ball,  apparently,  described  his  plant  in  “  Ann.  &  Mag.  Nat. 
Hist.”  1849,  p.  30.  I  hope  Miss  Armitage  will  collect  this 
again. — C.E.S. 
Rhinanthus  stenophyllus  Schur.  (Ref.  No.  3556). 
Plentiful  in  grassy  ground  near  the  Calder  River,  E. 
Inverness,  v.c.  96,  July  22,  1911.— Edward  S.  Marshall. 
Orobanche  amethystea  Thuill.  (Ref.  No.  325).  On 
Eryngium  maritimum ,  St.  Helen’s  Spit,  I.  of  Wight,  v.c. 
10,  July  2,  1911. — Coll.  Miss  Coles.  Comm.  S.  H. 
Bickham. 
Utricularia  ochroleuca  Hartm.  Growing  in  6-10  feet 
of  water,  Coniston  Lake,  N.  Lancs.,  v.c.  69,  Aug.  1911. — 
J.  Comber.  I  suppose  correct. — A.B.  Apparently  correct. 
Agreeing  with  Hartman’s  description  in  the  points  by 
which  he  separates  it  from  U.  intermedia.  Very  nice 
specimens  as  far  as  the  vegetative  organs  go,  but  one
