Centaurea nigra L , sensu latiore. Ivythorn Hill (Liassic) near 
Street, Somerset, July 31, 1922. — H. S. Thompson. C. nemoralis 
Jord.— C.C.L. 
C. nemoralis Jord., var. nevadensis Gugler. Chalk pit, Downton, 
S. Wilts., v.c. 8, June 17, 1922. — Ida M. Roper. I do not like 
this determination. I do not agree with Gugler or Mr. Britton 
in identifying some of our English individuals with the plant of 
the mountains of southern Spain. The specimen is by no means 
typical nemoralis , and seems to me about intermediate between 
pratensis and nemoralis. It is obviously radiant. — C.C.L. 
Taraxacum erythrospermum Andrz. (1) Limestone rocks and 
slopes, Penpole Point, Avonmoutb, W. Glos., May, 1922. — H. S. 
Thompson. The outer phyllaries in this species are often more 
or less adpressed, and this, I think, has occasionally led to its 
being mistaken, when young, for T. palustre DC.— H.W.P. 
( 2 ) Durdham Down, Clifton, May, 1922. Achenes dark red. — 
H. S. Thompson. (3) Cricket Field, Hitchin, Herts., v.c. 20, 
June 2, 1922. — J. E. Little. 
Lactuca Serriola Linn. [592]. By the railway near Penrhyn- 
dendreath, Merioneth, v.c. 48, Sept. 8, 1922. — W. C. Barton. 
No record of L. Serriola known to us for v.c. 48. — G.C.D., C.E S. 
Jasione montana L., forma. Porlock Weir, Somerset, July, 
1922. — H. S. Thompson. The sheet sent shows fragmentary 
pieces of what is probably a secondary growth, but I think from 
the rather broad leaves and bracts, as well as the coarse calyx- 
teeth, that the plant belongs to my variety latifolia although it is 
not characteristic. — H.W.P. 
Limonium vulgare Mill., var. pyramidale Druce. Wells, W. 
Norfolk, v.c. 28, Aug. 22, 1922. — j. E. Little. 
L. binervosum C. E. Salmon. Wells, W. Norfolk, v.c. 28, Aug. 
22, 1922. — J. E. Little. Yes; Statice binervosa G. E. Smith. — 
C.E.S. 
Omphalodes verna Moench. Copse, Wallington Park, W. 
Norfolk, v.c. 28, May 7, 1922. Coll. Anna Luddington. The 
plants flower freely in dense copsewood, and closely cover about 
eighty square yards. I could find no fruit on June 15, 1922. 
Possibly they spread by their creeping stems, and do not set 
seed. I am indebted to Mr. E. G. Baker for help towards the 
above determination. — J.E.L. 
Symphytum orientate L. Garden weed, Winchmore Hill, 
Middlesex, June 5, 1922. — L. B. Hall. Yes. — H.S.T.
