Malua  parviflora  L.  (Ref.  No.  4021).  One  fine  plant 
(alien),  on  sandhills,  Ansdell,  W.  Lancs.,  v.c.  60,  Aug.  10, 
1914.  Procumbent ;  flowers  small,  bluish  white.  I  think 
that  it  is  rightly  named. — Edward  S.  Marshall. 
Tilia  platyphyllos  Scop.  Malvern  Chase,  Worcs., 
v.c.  97,  Sept.  21,  1914. — A.  J.  Crosfield.  Yes. — C.E.M. 
Erodium  cicutarium  L’Herit.,  var.  cheer  ophyllum 
(Cav.).  Hitchin,  Herts.,  v.c.  20,  May  80,  1914. — J.  E. 
Little.  I  believe  so;  a  rather  small  form  of  it. — E.S.M. 
Oxalis  striata  L.  A  weed  in  the  garden,  Edmond- 
sham,  Dorset,  v.c.  9,  Sept.  22,  1914,  which  came  in  three 
or  four  years  ago,  and  has  been  increasing  rapidly  the 
last  year. — E.  F.  Linton. 
Rhamnus  Alaternus  L.  Clifton  Down,  Bristol,  W. 
Glos.,  v.c.  84,  March  16,  1914.  Well  established. — Ida  M. 
Roper. 
Medicago  denticulata  Willd.,  var.  apiculata  (Willd.). 
St.  Leonards-on-Sea,  E.  Sussex,  v.c.  14,  May  27,  1914.— 
A.  G.  Gregor.  Yes ;  a  very  rare  variety  in  Britain,  which 
I  have  never  met  with. — E.S.M.  This  is  M.  apiculata , 
var.  confinis  Koch  “  Syn.  Flor.  Germ.”  I.  164  (1886),  which 
he  describes  as  “  spinulis  in  tubercula,  latitudine  ipsorum 
non  longiora,  abbreviatis.”  His  M.  apiculata  “  type  ”  has 
the  spines  less  than  half  the  transverse  diameter  of  the 
legume,  while  M.  denticulata  has  them  equalling  the  same 
diameter. — A.J.W. 
Lotus  corniculatus  L.  Offley  Hill,  Hitchin,  Herts., 
v.c.  20,  Aug.  10,  1914.  I  have  so  far  failed  to  find  quite 
glabrous  plants  in  this  district.  Plants  with  some 
villosity  are  most  usual _ J.  E.  Little.  This  is  about  as 
glabrous  as  ever  I  remember  seeing  L.  coruicidatus,  but 
there  seems  no  special  name  for  it. — C.E.S.  Type  corni¬ 
culatus  is  often  nearly  glabrous.  This  is  a  luxuriant 
state  of  the  species. — J.W.W. 
Vicici  uillosa  Roth.  Station  yard,  Portishead,  N. 
Somerset,  v.c.  6,  June  1  and  July  14,  1914. — Ida  M.  Roper. 
Correct.— H.S.T. 
Lathy  rus  Apliaca  L.  (Ref.  No.  4023).  Locally 
plentiful  and  certainly  native  on  clayey-sandy  cliffs,
