and peduncles are glandular — hairy ; so that these represent 
the glandular form of S. ciliata Fr. 
Saginae frequently grow intermixed ; it is most necessary 
therefore for the collector to look them over very carefully 
before distributing. — J. E. Little. 
My sheet was pure S . ciliata and showed much more 
typical specimens then those of that species on Mr. Little s 
sheet, which I have seen. I am in entire agreement with 
his determinations of the three species on his sheet. W. H.

1406] . Shingle, Pagham Beach, W. Sussex, v.c. 13, 
May 25, 1927. — E. C. Wallace. Correct. — E. G. Baker. 
This agrees with Babington’s brief account (Manual, Ed. 3, 
62) but it is much too hairy to be included under this name as 
restricted by Mr. Wilmott in Journ. Bot., LIX, 99 (1921). —

Geranium purpureum Vill. var. Forsteri Wilmott [Ref.

maritimum of G. Robertianum. I did not find any var. Forsteri 
at Pagham.— E. C. Wallace. Correct : — E. G. Baker.

1, Petals red, conspicuously longer than the calyx 2 
Petals very pale and scarcely longer than the 
calyx ... ... ... ... Boraeanum
