( G .  pedicellata  Towns.).  Leaves  broader  than  in  pure 
fluitans _ E.S.M.  I  think  this  is  G.  spicata ,  var.  subspicata.

88,  July  27,  1912. — McT.  Cowan,  junr.  Material  too  far 
advanced;  it  looks  like  a  weak  state  of  G.  fluitans,  Br.,  var.

fluitans ,  var.  loliacea  Aschers.). — E.  Hackel.

Edinburghsh.,  v.c.  88,  June  16,  1911. — McT.  Cowan,  junr. 
Nearer  var.  fallax  than  anything  else  I  know  ;  the  flowers 
are  much  tinged  with  violet,  probably  owing  to  a  sunny 
situation. — E.S.M.  F.  rubra  L.,  var.  fallax  Hackel. — E. 
Hackel.  (2)  (Ref.  No.  110).  Shore,  Dalmeny,Linlithgowsh.,

loliacea  Hackel ;  but  I  do  not  know  that. — E.S.M.  A  reduced 
state _ A.B.  This  is  an  anomalous  state  of  F.  arundinacea 
Schreb.,  with  reduced  panicle. — E.  Hackel. 
Bromus  hordeaceus  L.,  var.  glabratus  Doell.  Blackford

These  specimens  are  B.  tectorum  L.  In  aspect  B.  tectorum 
is  more  like  a  reduced  madritensis,  while  patulus  is  like  an 
open  reduced  mollis  or  commutatus. — A.B.  B.  tectorum. —
