acillaris Good. A large tuft of this sedge is known to me 
by the roadside half a mile north of Falfield, and I have found 
a good quantity on a ditchbank about a mile from Yatton. 
Mr. Bucknall also observed a little in Berrow Marsh, July 
1890. G. montana L. was discovered near Charterhouse on 
Mendip by Rev. E. F. Linton, in July 1889. It extends about 
150 yards along a hillside, the pale green foliage rendering 
it very conspicuous. Not more than a quarter of the plants 
were in flower in May 1897. G. Hornschuchiana Hoppe has 
been gathered on the moorland below Weston-in-Gordano, 
and in the peaty meadows near Winscombe. G. eu-flava 
genuina Syme is recorded from Failand, and from a bog under 
Lansdown, where the type and var. datior Schlec. grow 
together. Plants from the folloAving locahties have been named 
var. (Ederi Retz : the peat-moor near Shapwick Station, 
Walton-in-Gordano, and Weston-in-Gordano. G. acuta L. 
has been repeatedly identified in the district by Mr. David 
Fry, and the following records are chiefly his : Warleigh 
Ferry and Claverton Ferry near Bath, bank of Avon near the 
lock at Keynsham, withy-bed just above Saltford, the river 
bank at Hanham, and a boggy meadow by the Chew above 
Compton Dando. Mr. Harold Thompson gathered a sedge 
in Leigh Wood some years ago that has been determined by 
Mr. A. Bennett to be G. depauperata Good. The place and 
date were unfortunately not noted. G. foludosa Good. .var. 
suhulata Doell. = G. sfadicea Roth, is very characteristic 
and typical in ditches between Cheddar and Nyeland, and in 
Max Bog.

adjacent to the Channel shore between Avonmouth and 
Portishead. Galamagrostis Epigeios also proves to be more 
widely distributed in both Somerset and Gloucestershire.
