25 
years. — L. B. Hall. A very interesting freak or chimaera. — 
J. Fraser. This was rightly treated by Dr. Rendle as a lusus, 
and he did not give it a name. Surely such lusus or terata 
should not be given varietal names. — Eric Drabble. This is a 
teratological state and not a taxonomic variety. — H. W. 
Pugsley. Mr. Pugsley points out that the second Journ. Bot. 
reference on the label should be 1928, p. 25, not 272 as type- 
written by Mr. Hall. 
Pyrola rotundifolia L. var. maritima (Kenyon). Sand dunes, 
Ainsdale, S. Lancs., v.c. 59. Coll. J. Davy Dean, 1928. 
Comm. Dept, of Botany, National Museum of Wales. 
Primula elatior Jacq. Near Saffron Walden, North Essex. 
April 21, 1901. Coll. A. O. Hume. Comm. S. Lond. Bot. 
Inst. — The broad, oval leaves, suddenly contracted into the 
petiole, are good evidence. I cannot see inside the corolla to 
see the open throat, nor is there a ripe capsule to show the 
seed-vessel projecting from the throat. — J. Fraser. 
Erythraea Centaurium Pers. floribus albis. Ashcott Peat 
moor, Somerset, v.c. 6, in considerable quantity, July 20, 1929. 
— H. S. Thompson. Stamens from top of tube. Yes, a 
pretty form which probably comes true from seed. — C. E. 
Salmon. 
Gentiana campestris L. var. baltica (Murb.) [837]. Annual. 
Foulden Common, Norfolk, 13 Sept., 1927. — J. E. Little. 
Ascherson & Graebner (FI. n. o. deutsch. Flachl. 562) remark 
that the annual plant alone is found over the North-German 
plain, and that the biennial is limited to the mountains and to 
Scandinavia. The census numbers for Britain require re- 
adjustment. For how many vice-counties is the biennial 
recorded ? — J. E. Little. 
Solanum Dulcamara L. var. tomentosum Ivoch.=S. littorale 
Raab. Among bushes on Clifton Down, Bristol, West 
Gloucester, July 15, 1929. A first record for the Bristol area. 
— Jas. W. White. . . . Mr. White’s plant seems to me to be the 
extreme form in hairiness, being tomentose. — J. Fraser. 
Linaria repens Mill. Lodsworth Common, W. Sussex, Aug. 
15, 1929.— R. J. Burdon. 
Veronica hybrida Linn. Gloddaeth Hill, Llandudno, Carnar- 
vonshire, July 13, 1905. Coll. A. 0. Hume. Comm. S. Lond.
