I see nothing worthy of a varietal name in the Jersey 
vetch. The “ bright rose-purple conspicuous standard ” of this 
var. can he seen in many a large-flowered angustijolia in the 
south of England and in France, particularly when growing 
within maritime influence. The var. Bobartii often has larger 
flowers than those of these upright plants from Jersey, but the 
leaves and habit are not those of the plant we have known as 
var. Bobartii which Rouy places as his var. typica of V. angusti- 
folia (FI. France), v, 213). In its very narrow leaves Bobartii 
approximates to var. uncinata Desv., found in the Channel Isles, 
and “ very common in Normandy ” (Marquand, FI. of Guernsey, 
81). I have gathered uncinata in Provence, but this again was 
reduced to merely a form of V. angustifolia by Reynier (Bull. 
Soc. Bot. France, 1908, 590-4). For a further note by me on V. 
angustifolia forms see Report 1913-14 p. 438. — H. S. Thompson. 
Lathyrus tuberosus L. Rough ground near wood, Ledbury, 
W. Glos., v.c. 34, Aug. 25, 1926. — W. A. Shoolbred. From what 
I know of this beautiful Pea on the Continent and of its 
occurrence in England I am inclined to agree with Mr. Miller 
Christy (Journ. Bot. 1910, p. 170), that it is not indigenous in 
Britain. Though found near Ledbury (Herefords.) it was appa- 
rently within the Glos. border. — H. S. Thompson. 
L. sylvestris L. Lyme Regis, Dorset, 1926. — St. John

L. sylvestris L. Chalky slope near Whitekill, Caterham, Surrey, 
July, 1924. — J. E. Lousley. 
L. mantimus, Bigel. Shingle, Rifle Ranges, Hythe, Kent. I 
send this for the interest of the locality. The public are only 
allowed on these ranges on Sundays ; perhaps that explains why 
this locality is, so far as I know, unpublished. The plant is 
much more abundant here than at Kingsdown, and I failed to 
find it at Dungeness. — J. E. Lousley. 
Prunus insititia x spinosa. [673], Riddy Lane, Hitchin, 
Herts., March 30, Aug. 9, Sept. 17, 1926. — J. E. Little. I 
agree to this. The petals are broader than pure P. spinosa 
usually is ; the peduncles have a short pubescence, the leaves 
are br oader than those of P. spinosa, and the flowers are contem- 
poraneous with them. — J. Fraser. 
Rubus integribasis P. J. Muell. (?) Stem arcuate ; petals pink, 
oval-obovate, clawed ; filaments pinkish, equal to the prominent 
pink-green styles; sepals patent in flower, and very loosely
