E. palustre L. Ippolyts Common, Herts., v.c. 20, Aug. 3 and 
30, 1921. — J. E. Little. I think that the .sheets now sent all 
come under type. E. parviflorum was growing intermixed, and 
E. hir&utum close at hand. Some plants, reserved for further 
study, suggest E. palustre x parviflorum ; they vary much in their 
combinations of the characters of the two species. — J.E.L. 
E. tetragonum Curt. Beaton, Hitchin, Herts., v.c. 20, Sept. 
20, 1921. — J. E. Little. This agrees, particularly in the long 
“pods,” with the excellent plate in Curtis, “FI. Londin.” new 
ed. Vol. I. (1817), and with specimens in my herbarium. — H.S T. 
Apium nodiflorum Reichb. hi. var. pseudo-repens H. C. Watson. 
Small stunted plants among rushes at foot of Sandhills, Berrow, 
N. Somerset, July 9, 1921, after long drought. See “Journ. 
Bot.” 1906, p. 186.— H. S. Thompson. The small bits with 
broad leaflets and stalked umbels well represent Watson’s var. 
pseudo-repens , but, as H. S. T.’s pregnant note suggests, this is 
only a form due to situation and special conditions of moisture. — 
FI. J. Riddelsdell. Mr. E. G-. Baker has seen this, and agrees. —

Fceniculum vulgare Mill, (seedlings). Tickenham Hill, N. 
Somerset, Aug 31, 1921. — I. M. Roper. 
Oenantlie pimpinelloides L. In pascuis humidulis circa Swan- 
age, et alibi in agro Dorsetsiensi habitat, Julii 16, 1889. — Jas. W. 
White. 
Oe. Lachenalii C. Cmel. Dwarf, salt-marsh form. Mouth of 
R. Brue, Somerset, v.c. 6, July 7, 1921. — H. S. Thompson. 
Galium boreale Linn. Falcon Clints, Teesdale, Durham, v.c. 66, 
Sept. 1843. Coll. H. Ibbotson. Comm. S. H. Bickham. 
G. erectum Huds. Quarry near Hovingham, N.E. Yorks , v.c. 
62, July, 1860. Coll. H. Ibbotson. Comm. S. H. Bickham. 
G. palustre L. forma. Dry side of shady lane near Whit- 
church, N. Somerset, July 2, 1921. Stems weak, rough, shortly 
glandular. Leaves 4 — 6, blunt, oblong-lanc, slightly ciliate. 
Flowers very small ; 4 petals, 4 purple anthers. Turns black on 
drying. — H S. Thompson. G. Witheringii Smith, “Eng. Bot” 
t. 2206; “Eng. FI.” i. 200. Note the forwardly-directed bristles 
on the leaf-margins, of which there is no mention in Syme, 
“Eng. Bot.” We have the same form on Wimbledon Common, 
and it gave me trouble, as it did not fit the descriptions of either 
G. palustre or G. uliginosum. — A. J. Wilmott. Now usually con- 
sidered a var. of palustre , Rouy places Smith’s plant as var. fi of
