Hypericum muiadatun Orantz], fori., with sepals not refiexed. 
Lane loading from Shackleford to Ruttenham, Surrey, v.c. 17, 
July 23, 1916. — E. B. Bishop. This is H dtibivm Leers, var. 
erosum Selling (the common form in Britain). — C.E.S. 
Geranium Roberticmm L., var. mfideslum ( Jord. ), (see Davey’s 
“FI of Cornwall”). Lane-side, Padstow, W. Cornwall, v.c. 1, 
May 25, 1916.. — J. W. White. A beautiful series. — H.S.T. 
Erodium aicutarium L’Herit., var. trkiale Jord. Barrow Hill, 
Newton St. Loe. N. Somerset, v.c. 6, June 7, 1916. Petals not 
spotted. — Ida M. Roper. A robust state, corresponding to 
gmuinum Rouy ; and is, I believe, the most common form of 
the aggregate both in this country and in France. — J.W.W. 
This is a form of Erodium triviale Jord We have compared it 
with Jordan’s type in Herb. Mm Brit. It is more glandular, 
but has the long rostrum to the fruit, the non-spotted flowers, 
the distinct ridge round the foveola, and the acute segments of 
the leaves, which are. distinguishing features of this species. It 
■would greatly facilitate the determination of plants of this genus 
if members would kindly note : (a) colour of stigmas, anthers, 
pollen and petals ; (b) are pe tals equal or unequal, and spotted or 
riot spotted, also the diameter of expanded flower should be 
noted. — E.G-.B. & C.E.S. 
Medicago lupulina L., var eriocarpa Rouy. Railway bank, 
Dullingham, Cambs., v.c. 29, Aug. 14, 1916. — A. J. Crosfleld. 
In good fruit, but the pods are so sparsely hairy that the charac- 
ter is not easily recognised. Not a satisfactory “variety ” to my 
mind. — J.W.W. The pods show some simple hairs upon them, 
so the plant must be labelled, I believe, as Mr. Crosfleld suggests. 
Rouy, however, makes it a sub-war. only. It is often better 
marked than in these examples. — C.E.S. 
M. lupulina L., pedicellate form with falcate pods. Littleton, 
near Guildford, Surrey, v.c. 17, June 24, 1916. — Coll. R. M. 
Kennedy. Comm. E. B. Bishop. This is evidently the plant to 
which Mr. White refers in “FI. Bristol,” p. 229. It may very 
well be a state of var. unguiculata, Ser., which is apparently a 
terafcological growth rather than a true variety. — C.E.S. 
Trifolium squamosum L. (= T. maritimum Hudson). Sub- 
maritime pasture by R. Avon, below Bristol, W. G-los., v.c. 34, 
July 11, 1916, and Sea-bank by roadside at Uphill, N. Somerset, 
v.c. 6, July 28, 1916. This plant does not grow in “salt 
marshes,” at least in the west, of England, but in sub-maritime
