Festuca temiifolia Sibth. var. 7, North Wilts. ; dry gravel ]iit, Spye 
Park, 8th June 1949. — J. D. Grose. “ Under the present accepted 
Rules of nomenclature it would appear that this grass should now be 
named F. rnutica Retz. ad var. hirtuUi (Hack.) How. vergens. In my 
recent synopsis 1 had it under F. tenvifolia Sibth.” W. 0. Howarth. 
Agiopgron repens (L.) Beauv. var. gUmcum Doell. Form with the 
lemmas awned. 41, Glamorgan; cultivated ground, Bute Park, Car- 
diff, 8th July 1949.^ — A. E. AVade, comm. Nat. AIuseum of Wales. “This 
seems to be correctly named. The variety is de.scribed as having glau- 
cous spikelets and short awns. There is, however, no constant correla- 
tion between awn length and glaucous spikelets as these characters are 
apparently inherited sejiarately; var. glaucum Doell., is therefore de- 
fined by just one of the possible combinations of characters selected 
arbitrarily out of the whole range.” — T. G. Tutin.
