June 9, 1905. — A. 0. Hume. Comm. S. Lond. Bot. Inst. 
The specimens received are H. holophyllum W. R. Lint., which 
is another of the rare Hawkweeds o£ Great Orme’s Head. — 
H. W. Pugsley. 
Hieracium [pseudo-sciaphilum]. Stone corner of Reservoir, 
LTpper Llanfairfechan, Carnarvonshire, Aug. 8, 1905. — 
A. 0. Hume. Comm. S. Lond. Bot. Inst. This plant has 
simple hairs mixed with glandular ones on the pedicels and 
involucres, and should be referred, I think, to H. deductum 
Sudre. It used to be common on the wall-tops about Llan- 
fairfechan. — H. W. Pugsley. 
Leontodon autumnale L. [var. sordidum Bab. ?]. Pasture 
on sandstone, near Brislington House, N. Somerset, Aug. 27, 
1933. Gathered because at first thought to be Hypochoeris 
glabra, which I can never find. — H. S. Thompson. Scarcely 
var. sordidum Bab. which has blackish hairs on the involucre 
(absent in these specimens), and is usually found I believe, in 
alpine regions. I have gathered excellent examples of the 
variety on Ben More and Ben Douran in the West Highlands 
at 3,000ft. — E. C. Wallace. Not the variety. — J. E. Lousley. 
I agree to var. sordidum because the leaves are coarsely pilose. 
Both this variety and var. pratense (Koch) have the bracts of 
the capitulum with woolly hairs, rather white in these 
specimens, but sometimes black. — J. Fraser. I observed on 
the ground that the plant varied considerably. — H. S. T. Not 
the variety, which should have the involucres shaggy with 
blackish hair. — H. W. Pugsley. 
Lactuca alpina Hook. f. Glen Doll, Forfar, v.c. 90, July 14, 
1921. Coll. E. M. Reynolds. Comm. Dept, of Botany, 
National Museum of Wales. A beautiful specimen of this 
rare plant, widely known as Mulgedium alpinum (L.) Lessing. 
— H. S. T. 
Gentiana baltica Murb. ? Formby. Sandhills between 
Liverpool and Southport, W. Lancs., Sept. 28, 1905. — A. O. 
Hume. Comm. S. Lond. Bot. Inst. The stem of G. baltica, 
which is an annual, still shows the cotyledons at the time of 
flowering. The allied G. campestris is usually biennial, and 
less lowland. — H. S. T. 
X Symphytum lilacinum Buckn. (S. ochroleucum X pur- 
pureum X peregrinum). By the Land Yeo stream, Wraxall, 
N. Somerset, v.c. 6, June 11, 1932. — J. W. White. Comm. 
Ida M. Roper.
