majority  of  the  leaf-sheaths  are  hairy,  in  the  upper  part, 
in  my  specimens _ C.E.S. 
Agrostis  nigra  With.  (Ref.  No.  8819).  Grassy  banks 
of  the  River  Lyon,  Fortingal,  Mid  Perthsh.,  v.c.  88, 
July  15,  1918.  This  agrees  very  well  with  Babington’s 
description,  and  Mr.  Bennett  thinks  it  correct _ Edward 
S.  Marshall. 
Peschampsia  setacea  Richter.  Margin  of  Hatchet 
Pond,  near  Beaulieu,  S.  Hants.,  v.c.  11,  Aug.  1918.  -J. 
Comber.  Rightly  named. — E.F.L. 
Molinia  ccerulea  Moench.,  var.  major  Roth.  Damp 
shady  places  by  roadside,  near  Milton,  S.  Hants.,  v.c.  11, 
Aug.  1913.— J.  Comber.  “Correct _ E.  Hackel”  (B.E  C 
Rept.,  1913,  p.  509). 
Poa  annua  L.,  var.  Prittlewell,  near  Southend,  S. 
Essex,  v.c.  18,  June,  1913 — W.  R.  Sherrin.  This  may  be 
vai.  reptans  Hansch,  but  I  have  not  seen  specimens 
authentically  named _ A.B. 
P.  nemoralis  L.,  var.  ccesia  Gaud.  ?  (Ref.  No.  3821). 
Cliffs  above  Fortingal,  Mid  Perthsh.,  v.c.  88  (at  1000  to 
1200  feet),  July  9,  1913.  Intensely  glaucous.  Mr.  Arthur 
Bennett  writes  :  “  I  do  not  know  Gaudin’s  plant ;  but, 
judging  by  description,  I  should  think  your  specimens 
must  be  very  near  it.” — Edward  S.  Marshall.  I  do  not 
know  what  ccesia  Gaud,  is,  or  where  he  described  it. 
Neithei  Richter,  Ascherson  and  Graebner,  or  Nyman 
mentions  any  P.  ccesia  of  Gaudin.  There  is  a  P.  glau- 
cantha  Gaud.,  an  alpine  plant,  and  a  var.  caesia  of  Mert  & 
Koch  Deut.  FI.  I.  619  (1823)  =  P.  Gaudini  Roemer  & 
Schultes  “Syst.  veg.”  II.,  548  (1817).  Perhaps  it  is  a 
mistake  for  var.  glauca  Gaud.  Agrost.  Helv.  I.  189  (1811), 
which  is  the  same  as  Mertens  and  Koch’s  caesia _ A.B. 
(See  also  B.E.C.  Rept.,  1913,  p.  511). 
Agropyron  pungens  R.  &  S.,  [var.  littorale  (Reichb.)l . 
Bank  of  Avon,  Sea  Mills,  Bristol,  W.  Glos.,  v.c.  34,  Aug. 
8,  1913 — Ida  M.  Roper.  I  should  have  named  this  A. 
repens  L.,  var.  Leersianum  Reichb.  (=  Triticum  Leer- 
sianum  Wulf.,  Schreb.  &  Kutz _ A.B.
