leaves of the September specimens, from below Compton 
Dando, are affected with a rust which “ seems to be Coleos- 
porium Senecionis Fr.” (Dr. Ivimey-Cook). — H. S. Thompson. 
Cirsium eriophorum Scop, sub-sp. britannicum Petrak. 
Rough pastures on Lower Lias, N. of Compton Dando, N. 
Somerset, Sept. 15, 1932. See Report, 1922-23, with photo- 
graph. (Before Dr. Petrak’s monograph on Cirsium was 
published he altered the name “ anglicum ” to britannicum). 
— H. S. Thompson. 
Cirsium heterophyllum Hill. Near Killin, Perthshire, July 
15, 1930. — K. D. Little. Comm. J. E. Little. 
Hieracium . Witley, Surrey, June 23, 1932. — R. J. 
Burclon. A form of H. serratifrons Almq. near var. lepistoides 
(Johans.). The whole rootstocks of several of these specimens 
have been pulled up. In these days, when phyllopodous 
hawkweeds are sadly diminishing in numbers, it would be 
better to cut off the shoot with the radical rosette, to avoid 
destroying the plant. — H. W. Pugsley. 
Hieracium . Shady bank under beech trees, Oxton 
Hill, Nottinghamshire, July 1 and 29, 1932. — J. W. Carr. 
I think H. chlorophyllum Jord., formerly included in H. 
sciaphilum Uechtr. — H. W. Pugsley. 
Lactuca Scariola L. Waste ground, Avonmouth Docks, 
W. Glos., Sept. 19, 1929.— J. W. White. 
Lactuca Scariola L. var. dubia (Jord.). [985]. Brick-pit, 
Wootton Pillinge, Beds., Sept. 28, 1932. — J. E. Little. This 
plant with entire leaves agrees with Jordan’s var. dubia : 
“ Feuilles oblongues — obovales ou spatulees indivises, a borcl 
denticulees tout-autour,” which appears also closely akin to 
var. integrata G. and G. : “ Feuilles entieres, denticulees, 
largement lanceolees, allongees.” (Rouy FI. Fr.). — J. E. L. 
The grey achene is relatively narrower than in L. virosa, 
and more bristly with short cilia at the top. Achenes to show 
this are enclosed, but it was difficult to collect them in quantity 
as the habit of the plant is to ripen only a few heads at a time. 
— J. E. Little. Yes, var. dubia (Jord.). It agrees with the 
French material at Brit. Mus. so named. — A. J. Wilmott and 
E. Drabble. I think var. dubia (Jord.), with nearly entire 
leaves. — H. W. Pugsley. Messrs. J. Fraser and J. E. Lousley
