Fumaria [Bastardii Bor.]. Sandy potato field, Parkstone, 
Dorset. Aug. 12, 1927. L. B. Hall and J. E. Little. This 
is a weak form of F. Boraei Jord. H. W. Pugsley. 
Fumaria . Ref. 1401. Edge of field near Shere, 
Surrey. July 31, 1927.— E. C. Wallace. This is a form of 
F. officinalis L. best referred to var. elegans Pugsl. It 
is not typical of the variety owing to its rather long bracts and 
small sepals. — H. W. Pugsley. 
Cardamine amara L. var. rubescens Peterm., Ham Haw, 
Weybridge, Surrey, v.c. 17, May 8, 1927. The above is a 
very old colony as known to me. There is a good deal of 
colour on the back of the petals, but this colour is rather 
fugitive, and much of it is lost in drying and afterwards. — 
J. Fraser. A long note on C. amara L. var. erubescens 
Petermann appeared in W.B.E.C. Report, 1904-05, p. 8, and 
was published on the suggestion of the late W. B. Hemsley, 
F.R.S., from information supplied by myself then at Kew 
Herbarium. It referred to specimens gathered, May 15, 
1905, by Miss K. Fitzgerald “ in abundance between Black 
Boy Wharf and New Head Bridge, on the canal, Addlestone, 
N.W. Surrey. . . . Otto E. Schulz, the author of the 
monograph of Cardamine in Engler Jarhb. XXXII (1903) 
p. 501, who has seen a specimen, calls it C. amara L. var. 
erubescens Petermann, or more exactly C. amara L. var. 
subglabra Schur. sub-var. erubescens Petermann, and he thinks 
it the first British record, though there is said to be a very 
similar plant in Herb. Brit. Mus. from Lodsworth, Sussex, 
(Rev. E. S. Marshall) named C. amara, the flowers of which, 
however, are less coloured than in the Surrey plant.” — H. S. 
Thompson. 
C. bulbifera Crantz. Wood near Watford, Herts, v.c. 20. — 
I. Helsby. 
Erophila verna E. Meyer, var. majuscula (Jord.). [Y107], 
Cow Green, Widdy Bank Fell, Upper Teesdale, Durham, 
Alt. c. 1700 ft. July 14, 1927. Plants from this spot have, I 
understand, been so named by Dr. Druce — I think my speci- 
mens agree.— J. E. Lousley. Two plants on this sheet have 
the narrow silicules narrowed at each end, and the slender 
pedicels of E. stenocarpa Jord. = Dr aba lanceolata Neilr.— 
J. E. Little.
