useless. — A.B. ( 2 ) Hedge banks near Brislington, N. Somerset, 
v.c. 6, May 28, 1922. Growing with the quite glabrous form 
called var. umbrosa (Opiz). — H. S. Thompson. 1 believe correctly 
named. — C.E.S. 
S. negleda Weihe, var. umbrosa (Opiz). (1) Near Brislington, 
N. Somerset, May 28, 1922. Calyx and pedicels shortly hirsute, 
immature seeds bluntly tubercled. — H. S. Thompson. Excellent 
umbrosa in good fruit. — C.E S. Yes. — A.B. ( 2 ) Boadside bank, 
Sidcot, N. Somerset, May 15, 1922. — H. S. Thompson. This is 
umbrosa ; calyx finely tubercled as is often the case in this 
plant. — C.E.S. ( 3 ) Woods near Porlock, Somerset, v.c. 5, June 
25, 1922.— L. B. Hall. 
Arenaria serpyllifolia L., var. viscidula Roth. Roadside, 
Knowle Hill, near Winsley, Wilts, June 3, 1922. — H. S. Thompson. 
Roth’s plant, but the few glandular hairs found on the specimens 
sent me will not, I consider, bring them under Koch’s glutinosa. 
I should have thought Mr. Thompson’s plants would come under 
scabra Fenzl., i.e. the usual state in Britain. — C.E.S. 
Sagina ciliata Fr. (1) The Rough, near Coates, W. Sussex, 
v.c. 13, July 13, 1922. — J. E. Little. Yes: S. ciliata Fr. = S. 
ambigua Lloyd. — C.E.S. Yes. — W.H.P. ( 2 ) Wolferton, W. 
Norfolk, v.c. 28, Aug. 23, 1922.— J. E. Little. Yes. — W.H.P. 
Spergularia campestris (Kindb.) Willk. & Lge. Par Harbour, 
Cornwall, July 1921. — W. R. Sherrin. The specimen sent is 
very fragmentary, but there is sufficient seed to show that it is 
S. salina Presl. — H.W.P. 
Malva moschata L. in great variety of form and colour. Copley 
Wood, near Butleigh, Somerset, v.c. 6, Aug. 2, 1922. About the 
old Woodman’s cottage, one of the classic sites for Althcea hirsuta. 
This wood should never have been called (by J. G. Baker) 
“ Butleigh Wood,” which is strictly a smaller enclosure nearer 
Street and Butleigh. — H. S. Thompson. 
Tibia platyphyllos Scop. ( T. grandifolia Ehrli.). Fruiting in 
cultivation at Stoke Bishop, Bristol, Sept. 1, 1922. — J. W. White. 
Thinly hairy below, but rightly named. Planted trees in Surrey 
are often densely pubescent on both sides of the leaves, and the 
species sows itself in plantations. — J.F. Yes, the typical form. 
This species varies a good deal in degree of hairiness, and 
Schneider has divided it into five sub-species, which do not 
appear, however, to be very well defined. The most pubescent 
forms are said to occur in northern Germany, France, and Scan-
