fine and complete specimen sent me, I would entirely agree 
with Mr. Pugsley. Apart from the existence of the good 
species L. latifolius L., that a varietal name be given to a 
form with some slightly broader leaves than others not 
infrequently growing in the same bush is unfortunate. There 
may be Continental specimens more worthy of the names given 
by Retzius and Petermann. — H. S. Thompson.

Potentilla argentea L. var. dissecta Wallr. [C 2], Ham 
Gravel Pits, near Richmond, Surrey, Ju.y 4, 1931. — J. E. 
Lousley. This seems to be the plant determined by British 
authors as var. tenuiloba Jord., which is accepted as being 
synonymous with var. multifida , Tratt. on the Continent. I 
believe that var. tenuiloba Jord. has a more spreading, lax, 
corymb than the present plant, which I determine as var. 
dissecta Wallr. — J. E. Lousley. I would name this P. argentea 
Linn. var. tenuiloba, (Jord.). I gathered it on the banks of the 
Thames in 1894, while the plants were still small, though 
flowering and fruiting. Later on it got into the Ham Gravel 
Pits where hundreds appeared for a time, but have since 
largely disappeared. See Jordan’s Pugillus Plantarum 
Novarum, p. 07, where he gives a very minute description, 
even to the very finely striate and rugose achenes. The 
radical and lower cauline leaves have five leaflets, with 2-4 
linear-oblong, acute, porrect teeth. Near the top of the stem 
the leaves consist of three leaflets, each with two teeth ; 
finally the leaves are reduced to three, with very short teeth 
or none, and sessile. — J. Fraser. This is the common British 
form of P. argentea, L. — H. W. Pugsley. I should not say so 
of the specimen sent me. — Ed. 
Alchemilla yratensis Schmidt. [C 18]. Crazies Hill, near 
Wargrave, Berks., May 24, 1931. — J. E. Louslej^. This is 
large for A. minor Huds., but that is what it is. A. jJratensis 
has the whole of the inflorescence glabrous. — J. Fraser.
