think  this  gathering  was  a  mixed  one,  and  that  they 
received  different  plants.— G.G. 
S.  [ salina  Presl] .  Mud-flats,  Axmouth,  S.  Devon, 
v.c.  3,  June  20, 1912 — Ida  M.  Roper.  Apparently  perennial; 
also  too  large  and  coarse  for  S.  salina.  The  specimens 
were  gathered  too  early;  but  they  appear  to  be  S.marginata, 
var.  glandulosa  Druce _ E.S.M. 
Hypericum  humifusum  L.  [var.  magnum  Bast.]  (1) 
St.  Andrew,  Guernsey,  Aug.  5,  1912 _ W.  C.  Barton.  Two 
small  plants  were  received;  one  has  strongly  revolute 
leaves,  and  appears  to  be  very  stunted  H.  linariifolium 
Vahl  :  the  other  I  should  name  H.  humifusum ,  type _ 
E.S.M.  (2)  Castlemorton  Common,  Worcs.,  v.c.  37,  June 
1912 — A.  J.  Crosfield.  One  small  specimen  was  sent  to 
me,  about  four  inches  square.  If  this  is  var.  magnum ,  of 
which  I  have  no  description,  the  name  is  particularly 
unsuitable  !  It  agrees  with  Babington’s  account  of  H. 
decumbens  Peterm.  in  having  the  sepals  more  or  less  (but 
usually  less)  serrate,  with  a  few  black  glands  beneath  ;  but 
not  at  all  well  with  Rouy  &  Foucaud’s,  where  that  is  said 
to  be  robust,  with  stems  from  15  to  35  centimetres, 
diffuse,  numerous,  elongate-prostrate-rooting,  ascending 
towards  the  centre.”  I  can  only  see  in  Mr.  Crosfield’s 
plant  a  very  slight  deviation  from  type _ E.S.M.  (3)  Sandy 
bank,  below  Colyer’s  Hanger,  near  Albury,  Survey,  v.c.  17, 
June  1912 — J.  Comber.  Still  less  “  off  type  ”  than  the 
Castlemorton  Common  specimen  referred  to  above _ E.S.M. 
Erodium  cicutarium  L’Herit.  (Ref.  No.  35).  Sandy 
hedge-bank  above  the  marshes,  Flixton,  E.  Suffolk,  v.c.  25, 
Sept.  21,  1912.  I  have  seen  nothing  quite  like  this  plant, 
which  was  growing  on  a  sand}'  hedge-bank  two  miles  from 
the  sea,  but  just  above  the  marshes,  that  are  now  drained. 
Flowers  large,  light  purple,  without  spots.— W.  C.  Barton. 
E.  cicutarium  L’Herit.,  var.  glandulosum  Bosch.  (1) 
On  sand  among  bracken,  Lihou  Island,  Guernsey  (Ref.  No. 
31),  Aug.  13,  1912.  An  extraordinary  plant,  pointed  out  to 
me  by  Mr.  Marquand  ;  straggling  over  sand  under  bracken, 
especially  at  the  mouth  of  rabbit  burrows-  The  branches 
were  as  much  as  three  feet  long,  with  flowers  and  green 
foliage  only  towards  the  tip _ W.  C.  Barton.  (2)  Sandy
