A. hastata L., ? x Babingtoni Woods. Ref. No. 20'i. On sane 
at Brading Harbour, I. of Wight, v.c. 10, Sept. 8, 1916. All 
these specimens were taken from one plant fi e feet in diameter. 
(In “FI. Hants.” Townsend mentioned a plant of Babingtoni 9.1 
feet in circumference). The Babingtoni influence is not so appa- 
rent as the hastata, but I have seen no hastata like this. The 
above parentage was suggested by Mr. Wilmott. Both parents 
were present. — W. C. Barton. I examined Mr. Barton’s series of 
A triplex before sending to the Club. The naming represents my 
opinion on these forms. The forms which I name A. hastata x 
Babingtoni cannot be referred merely to A. hastata. They are 
never, in my experience, found inland, and are confined to places 
where forms of A. Babingtoni grow. — A.J.W. 
A. Babingtoni Woods. Ref. No. 208. Shingle at Brading 
Harbour, I. of Wight, v.c. 10, Sept. 8, 1916. Ah from one 
plant. The inflorescence, hardened yellowish fruit and rhomboid 
braeteoles put this to Babingtoni , as against the green fruit, brac- 
teoles ovate triangular, with ba3o campanulate, and inflorescence 
leafy to the tip of virescens. I have specimens from Brading 
which match closefy Mr. Beeby's plant in Herb. Brit. Mus. certi- 
fied as virescens by Lange himself. But though extreme plants of 
what Mr. Wilmott in “Camb. Brit. Flora” groups unde: A 
gldbriuscula Edm. can be put with certainty to var. Babingtoni, or 
var. virescens, I have found no specimen of either variety which 
does not bear some fruit tending in the direction of the other. I 
should be glad if any member would send me a series of speci- 
mens showing the complete range of Atriplex in any locality. To 
be of use for critical study it is essential that specimens should 
bear ripe fruit. — W. C. Barton. t

Ref. No. 212. On shingle, Bembridge, 1 of Wight, v.e. 10, 
Sept. 13, 1916. With both parents. Small plants erect, larger 
prostrate. Mr. Wilmott puts these plants to ’-.he series of hybrids 
A. glabriuscula x hastata, var. oppodtifclia. (See “Camb. Brit. 
Flora,” II. p. 178.) The presence of large and small fruits is 
probable evidence of hybridity. — W. C. Barton. 
Salicornia Ref. No. 13. W. end of Great Deep, 
Thorney Id., W. Sussex, v.c. 13, Oct. 11, 1916. Dr. E. J. 
Salisbury remarks about this, “I think it : s very small atypical 
S. ramasissiwa, probably x 8. prostrata , vav. appressa.” The 
plants are certainly not starved specimens. The spikes were 
very fleshy, brightly shining. The root, in ,■ hingle or raul wa
