pasture land, the habitat given in White's “ Flora of Bristol.” 
j. D. Hooker says “salt marshes and meadows” (“Student’s 
Flora”); Hooker & Arnott (1850) gave “sale marshes " as the 
habitat; and even Babington gave “muddy salt marshes.” In 
Cornwall, Davey said it. grew on “ Roadsides and waste p aces 
near shipping. Very rare.” — H. S. Thompson. 
T. repens L., var. Townsendii Bab. This occurred, in 1903, in 
Moccas Park, near Hereford, whence a root was brought to 
Underdown, Ledbury, where it flourishes and retains its colour. 
July 20, 1916. — S. H. Bickham Mr. N. E. Brown, in the Sup- 
plement to “ English Botany,” ed. 3, gives var. rubescens Seringe 
as an earlier name. — E.S.M. 
Lotus corniculatus L. Worle Hill, Weston-super-Mare, N. 
Somerset, v.c., 6, June 13, 1916. Large spreading clumps, the 
foliage small and pale green, distinct in appearance from type, 
with which it grows. A depauperate form or state is mentioned 
in “FI. Derbysh.” (1903), p. 107. — Ida M. Roper. Under the 
type.— E.S.M'. & J.W.W. 
L. vliginosus Schkuhr., var. glabriuscuius (Bab.). Freshwater 
Gate Marsh, I. of Wight, v.c. 10, Sept. 16, 1916. (Cp. B.E.C. 
Report, 1914, p. 136). Further study of this plant inclines me to 
think it more than a form due to situation. It was in great 
abundance in the marsh and constant in character. A mile away 
on wet ground in Freshwater Marsh the hairy form (var. villosus) 
was growing, and there I could not find the less hairy plant’. 
Not mentioned in “FI. Hants.” 1904. (See B.E.C. Report, 1914, 
p. 136.) — W. C. Barton. Very well marked, I should sav. —

Vida Uthynica L. Station-yard, Portishead, N. Somerset, 
v.c. 6, June 2, 1916. — Ida M. Roper. An alien there. — H S.T. 
Iiubus latifolius Bab. Near Ty Croes Station, Anglesey, v.c. 
52, July 25, 19.16. — J. E. Griffith. Undoubtedly right, I should 
say. I once gat' ered it in the same locality. I think, however, 
that the panicles are too unequal ; some might with advantage 
be eliminated before distribution. Most of the gathering, how- 
ever, is beautifully representative. — H.J.R. I agree. Some (a 
few) of the panicles are so poorly developed that the 23 sheets 
might with advantage be partly re-arranged and reduced tc 18 
or 20. Dr. Focke is answerable for the naming of this Anglesey 
plant. While accepting his determination as probably correct, l
