v.c.  20,  Aug.  28,  1913.  I  believe  this  plant  and  Ref.  No. 
81  are  the  same,  in  spite  of  the  rather  narrower  leaves 
of  the  former,  which  may  be  merely  the  result  of  the 
later  stage  at  which  it  was  gathered.  I  distinguish  it 
from  var.  angustifolia  by  its  short-tubed  corolla  of  a 
blue-purple  colour,  smaller  in  all  its  parts  than  var. 
angustifolia,  which  latter  has  flowers  of  a  rose-pink 
colour.  In  these  two  localities  the  plant  is  practically 
pure.  There  are  others  in  the  neighbourhood,  where  this 
form  appears  to  blend  with  var.  angustifolia. — J.  E.  Little. 
G.  angustifolia  Ehrh. ;  approaching  var.  canescens 
(Schultz),  but  between  that  and  the  type. — E.S.M. 
(2)  Ref.  No.  81.  From  the  same  station,  Aug.  16,  1913. 
This  plant  was  sent  to  the  B.E.C.  in  1912.  I  then  named 
it  G.  intermedia  Vill.,  on  the  authority  of  Dr.  C.  E.  Moss 
and  Mr.  E.  W.  Hunnybun.  But  Dr.  Thellung  (B.E.C. 
Rept.,  1912),  writes,  “  G.  Ladanum  L.  sub-sp.  angustifolia 
(Ehrh.)  Gaud.,  forma  foliis  latioribus  leviter  accedens  ad 
sub-sp.  hitermedium  (Vill.)  Briq.”  If  it  does  not  possess  the 
“folia  ovata”  of  Villar’s  description,  yet  certainly  it  does 
show  the  character  “corolla  calice  vix  major”;  in  which 
latter  character  it  is  distinct  from  the  other  British 
plants  that  I  have  seen. — J.  E.  Little.  I  think  this  is 
G.  angustifolia  Ehrh. — E.S.M. 
Plantago  lanceolata  L.,  var.  sphcerostachya  Rohl. 
Upminster  Common,  S.  Essex,  v.c.  18,  July,  1912. — W.  R. 
Sherrin.  This  is  correctly  named  P.  lanceolata  L.,  var. 
sphcerostachya  Mertens  &  Koch. — E.B. 
P.  Coronopus  L.,  var.  pygmcea  Lange.  Sutton,  near 
Southend,  S.  Essex,  v.c.  18,  June,  1913. — W.  R.  Sherrin. 
This  is  allied  to  the  variety  pygmcea,  but  the  type  of  the 
variety  is  fewer-flowered. — E.B. 
Herniaria  ciliata  Bab.  Banks  on  cliffs,  Kennack 
Cove,  W.  Cornwall,  v.c.  1,  June,  1912. — H.  Boy  den. 
Ghenopodium  album  L.,  var.  paganum  (Reichb.). 
Garden  ground  near  Westbury-on-Trym,  Bristol,  W. 
Glos.,  v.c.  34,  Oct.  16,  1913.— J.  W.  White. 
C.  opulifolium  Schrad.  Waste  heap  N.  of  Welwyn 
Tunnel,  Herts.,  v.c.  20,  Oct.  6,  1913. — J.  E.  Little.
