Cytisus scoparius Link. var. prostratus Bailey. [A 52]. 
Gue Graze Valley, near Lizard, West Cornwall, June 1st, 
1929. This form, creeping over the rocks, and never lifting 
itself away from their friendly shelter, with its silvery leaves 
is of very different appearance from the normal inland form. 
Probably it is only an extreme state, owing its form to the 
very strong winds which blow at the Lizard. — J. E. Lousley. 
I have not previously seen this from a wild habitat, but pros- 
trate forms arise from seeds in cultivation. The branches 
of the specimen sent me are all in one plane, and obviously 
had been prostrate when gathered. — J. Fraser. 
Lotus tenuis Waldst. et Kit. Foot of Blackdown, W. Sussex, 
Aug. 13, 1929. — R. J. Burdon. 1 agree. The leaves and 
their stipules are very narrow in this species, and the flowers 
few on a stem. — J. Fraser. Yes , it seems a scarce plant, 
at least in Surrey. — E. C. Wallace. Mr. Wallace’s comment 
is apt. Though apparently widely spread in Britain and 
more or less on the Continent, “ rare and perhaps always 
introduced ” in Ireland, I have very rarely seen it either 
in the British Isles or in central or western Europe. It is 
synonymous with L. tenuifolius Reichb. — H. S. Thompson. 
Anthyllis Vulneraria Linn. var. coccinea Linn. [A 19]. 
Cliff above Kynance Cove, West Cornwall, England, May 25, 
1929. This variety grows intermixed with plants with normal 
coloured flowers and intermediates ; while plants which 
would appear to pass for “ coccinea ” may sometimes be 
found right off the Lizard rocks as at Gunwalloe. To my 
mind it is not a very convincing varietv. — J. E. Lousley. 
Mr. Wallace asked me to write a note on this plant, but we 
are hoping to be further enlightened on the group when Mr. 
Barton is able to continue the work he started a few years 
ago. — H. S. Thompson. 
Prunus Cerasus Linn. Wood near the Quell, Lurgashall, 
W. Sussex, April, 1929. — R. J. Burdon. Yes. — J. Fraser. 
Rubus . Burgh St. Margaret, Norfolk, July 23, 1929. 
R. J. Burdon. The panicles are R. Lindleianus Lees ; 
some of the stem pieces are too. Most of the stem (returned 
separately) comes from three other forms, and should be 
destroyed. I do not think R. vulgaris Whe. and N. is identical 
with Lindleianus Lees, so far as I have seen specimens. — 
H. J. Riddelsdell.
