P.  decipiens  Nolte.  Above  Forteviot  Bridge,  Perthsh., 
v.c.  88,  Sept.  20,  1915. — W.  Barclay.  Mr.  Barclay  certainly 
gathered  P.  decipiens  at  this  place  and  date,  as  I  have 
specimens  from  him,  but  this  specimen  is  too  poor  and 
indefinite  to  be  sure  of. — A.B. 
P.  crispus  x  alpinus.  River  Earn  above  Dalreoch 
Bridge,  Mid  Perthsh.,  v.c.  88,  Sept.  22,  1915.  This  hybrid 
was  discovered  by  Mr.  J.  R.  Matthews  and  myself  whilst 
botanising  on  the  bank  of  the  river  Earn  above  Dalreoch 
Bridge,  nearly  opposite  the  village  of  Dunning,  on  26th 
Aug.  last.  Not  being  able  to  identify  it,  I  sent  specimens 
to  Mr.  Arthur  Bennett,  who  determined  it  to  be  the  above 
hybrid,  saying  at  the  same  time  that  it  has  hitherto  been 
found  only  in  Denmark,  and  possibly  in  Bavaria.  There 
were  two  or  three  distinct  beds  of  it,  and  on  a  subsequent 
visit  another  was  found  about  a  mile  below,  on  the  opposite 
(left)  bank,  a  short  distance  below  the  bridge. — W.  Barclay. 
Eriophorum  gracile  Roth.  (Ref.  No.  4225).  Wet  bog 
on  Britty  Common,  above  Staple  Fitzpaine,  S.  Somerset, 
v.c.  5  (at  nearly  900  feet),  July  1,  1915.  New  for  the 
County. — Edward  S.  Marshall. 
Rynchospora  alba  Vahl.  (Ref.  No.  4226).  Wet  bog, 
Shapwick  Heath,  N.  Somerset,  v.c.  6,  Aug.  26,  1915.  This 
is  sent.,  as  being  unusually  tall.  Edward  S.  Marshall. 
Carex  chordorhiza  Linn.  fil.  (Ref.  No.  4140).  Wet 
bogs,  Altnaharra,  W.  Sutherland,  v.c.  108,  July  24,  1915  ; 
associated  with  C.  limosa  and  C.  lasiocarpa.  Owing  to 
the  drought,  apparently,  it  did  not  fruit  so  freely  as  usual. 
— Edward  S.  Marshall. 
C.  contigua  Hoppe.  Roadside,  Headley  Lane,  near 
Headley,  Surrey,  v.c.  17,  June  16,  1914.  The  name  has 
been  confirmed  by  the  Rev.  E.  S.  Marshall.— C.  E.  Salmon. 
C.  humilis  Leysser.  Durdham  Down,  Bristol,  W. 
Glos.,  v.c.  34,  Apr.  10;  foliage,  July  17,  1915.  No  fruit 
visible. — H.  S.  Thompson. 
C.  depauperata  Curt.  Bank,  near  Axbridge,  N.  Somer¬ 
set,  v.c.  6,  June  23,  1915.  Mr.  Pugsley’s  station,  which  I 
found  independently.  In  fine  condition  this  year,  with 
many  fruiting  spikes. —  H.  S.  Thompson,
