DiaTlUBUTOR’a REBOJAT FOR 1947 (1949) 
Sahx repens J.. 62, N.E. York; Pilmoor, May lUth and July 7th, 
1947. — C. M. IloB (lief. No. 279). 
Fotamogeton (jrainineus L. 70, Cumberland; margin of Overwatei, 
Ireby, Aug. 3rd, 1947.— Misa C. W. Muirhead, comm. Carli8LE Museum. 
Putaiaugeton BerclUoldii Pieb. 70, Cumberland; Ellerbeck Quail y 
Pond, Brigham, July 1st, 1947. — J. D. Hinde, comm. Carlisle Museum, 
det. J. E. Dandy and G. Taylor. 
Potuniogeton filiformis Pers. x F. pectinatus L. {xF. saecieus 
llicht.). 64, M.W. York; in stream between Foster Flat and Newby, a 
tributary of the li. Ure, July 24th, 1943. The occurrence of this plant 
in the Copgrove-to-Newby brook was of interest to Dr G. Taylor who 
visited the locality subsecjiiently. I am indebted to him for the It. 
Wharfe locality and for seeing the plant in the Ure at Boroughbridge. 
These two gatherings, now contributed, were held back until the pub- 
lication of Dr Taylor’s paper on the occurrence of this hybrid in Eng- 
land published in 1947 (Trans. Bot. Soc. Edin., Si, 348-360). E. C. 
Wallace (Ref. No. 5138). 
Fotamogeton filiformis Pers. x F. pectinatus L. (xP. suecicus 
Richt.). 64, M.W. York; River Wharfe, Weeton, near Hareivood, 
Aug. 3rd, 1943. — E. C. Wallace (Ref. No. 5139). 
Ruppia maritima L. 70, Cumberland; creek near the Wath Farm, 
Skinburness Marsh, near Silloth, Oct. 1st, 1947. — Miss C. W. Muirhead, 
comm. Carlisle Museum. 
.Tinicus compressus Jacq. 105, W. Ross; stony foreshore, Ob Mheal- 
laidh, Shieldaig, Upper Loch Torridon, July 22nd, 1947. Growing in 
patches with -J. Gerardi, but conspicuous at a distance by its colour, 
much more of a fulvous brown as contrasted with the dark chestnut- 
broAvn of the heads of J. Gerardi. J. com.pressus is given for “ 105, 
Ross W. (Druce)” in Top. Bot. Supp. 2, but Druce (1928, El. West Ross, 
84) expresses doubt as to the correctness of identification of the speci- 
mens from Attadale, the only locality given. The Torridon plants are 
therefore the first definite record for West Ross. — R. Mackechnie and 
E. C. Wallace (Ref. No. 5974). “ This is J. Gerardi Lois. Mr Wallace 
sent me two gatherings of J. Gerardi from Torridon, one of them from 
Ob Mheallaidh w’ith very dark blackish heads. By contrast the present 
gathering no doubt appeared very different in the field but the charac- 
ters are all those of Gerardi. The capsules somewhat exceed the perianth 
segments but not more so than in the other two gatherings referred to, 
while their shape and above all the characteristic long style are typical 
of Gerardi. The plant moreover has a creeping rootstock and as is 
usually the case in J. Gerardi the inflorescence exceeds the bract. Tn 
J. compressus the reverse is usually the case.” — W. A. Sledge. “ 1
