Symphytum [ densifiorum Bucknall. —S. officinale purpureum 
X peregrinum ], but the corollas were not £ violet but a 
beautiful blue and pale mauve blue. Bank of narrow lane 
near Monkton Combe, but just within N. Wilts., June 2 and 
12, 1933. — H. S. Thompson. This does not agree with 
specimens of the hybrid named by C. Bucknall. From the 
colour of the corolla and the length of the scales and filaments 
I should call it type peregrinum. — I. M. Roper. I see no sign 
of hybridity in this : it seems to be pale-flowered S. peregrinum 
Ledeb.— H. W. Pugsley. 
Pneummia maritima (L.) Hill. ( Mertensia maritima (L.) 
Gray). The Point, Cemlyn Bay, Anglesey, June 23, 1905. —

Myosotis cespitosa Schultz. Coombe Hill Canal, Cheltenham, 
W. Gloster, v.c. 34, June 13, 1933. More glabrous than usual. 
— I. M. Roper. Correct. — A. E. Wade. I agree. Gathered 
rather too young to show the spreading and recurved pedicels. 
— J. Fraser. 
Myosotis palustris L. With abnormal bunches of leaves, 
due probably to the conditions of drought. Chew Magna 
Reservoir, N. Somerset, Sept. 15, Oct. 4, 1933. — H. S. 
Thompson. Yes ; the bunches of leaves are due to short 
branches under the inflorescence. — J. Fraser. M. palustris 
var. memor Kittel. The “ abnormal bunches of leaves ” are 
the barren shoots which have become reduced owing to 
drought. The fruiting pedicels are also rather short, due no 
doubt to the same cause. — A. E. Wade. The adpressed 
pubescence of the stem suggests var. strigulosa (Reichb.). — 
I. M. Roper. Probably various forms were gathered. — H. S. T. 
Atropa Belladonna L. Bedford Purlieus, near Wansford, 
Northants, July 23, 1933. — J. W. Carr. 
Scrophularia aquatica L. Seedlings and young root-leaves. 
Chew Magna Reservoir, N. Somerset, Sept.-Oct., 1933. — 
H. S. Thompson. Correct. — J. Fraser. 
Sibthorpia europxa L. Holford, S. Somerset, July 3, 
Aug. 10, 1933. This now extends to within 50 yards of the 
main road. — H. S. Thompson.
