J. Fraser. Mr. Lousley reports that “ no panicles are present 
on the plant received, which is not var. Witheringii which has 
lanceolate leaves and conspicuous prickles on the stem.” He 
doubtless had a weak piece (which I observed had few if any 
bristles), from the single large piant on the wall. I purposely 
did not take it all. Smith says ( English FI. I, 1828, p. 200) 
leaves “ on the branches but 4,” as in my gathering. Moreover 
he described the leaves as “ small elliptic-lanceolate.” May 
I again recommend Smith’s most useful and too little known 
English Flora. There are 4 leaves also on lower part of the 
stem figured in Smith Eng. Bot. Ed. 1 and 2. — H. S. T.

Centaurea . Near Hereford, July, 1933. — R. J. 
Burdon. (I have seen no label. — Ed.). A rather small- 
headed form of C. obscura Jord. with deep-brown phyllaries. 
— C. E. Britton. Fairly pure C. nemoralis Jord., and the 
/. radiata C. E. Britton. — J. Fraser. 
Centaurea . Newton Abbot, S. Devon, July 22, 1933. 
— R. J. Burdon. Probably a form of C. nemoralis Jord. but 
approaching C. pratensis Thuill. in the broad roundish 
phyllaries at the upper two-thirds of the capitulum. Further 
gatherings, especially if rayed, might be conclusive. — C. E. 
Britton.
