BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB. 
Malca burealis, Wallm. Near Antony village, E. Cornwall. It 
would be curious to trace the mode in which this plant got to 
Cornwall. 
Trifolium agrarium, Schreb. Bagby Fields, near Thirsk, N. 
Yorkshire. — T. J. Foggitt, There is extreme confusion in the 
naming of these plants by different authors. I think with Koch 
and Des Moulins that ayrariimi = procumhem of Smith, and has 
two forms, A. canipestre, DC., and if. procumbens, DC.; the campestre 
and pseudo -procumbens of Boreau. The differences between them 
are exceedingly small, scarcely, in fact, enough to enable Boreau 
to distinguish them. 
Rubus Leesii. BogatWoodloes, near Warwick. 1875. — H. Bkom- 
wicH. I have little doubt about its being the Idceus anomalus of 
Arrh., and probably will enable us to reduce Leesii to that species, 
as I shall be glad to do. 
Hieraciwn dubium, Linn., Fries. I agree that this is pratense. 
See both of Fries’s books on the genus, and also the colUnum of 
Keich. Icon. FI. Germ., xix., t. 116. 
Atriplex rosea," Linn. This is A. farinosa, Dum., which is the 
oldest name that I know for it. Dum. Florida Belgica, 20 (1827.) 
I do not know Hoffm. Deutschl. Flora, and so cannot say what his 
sinuata may be. There is a Cape sinuata of Thunberg FI. Cap. 
(1823), but I do not know it. It is quoted by Moquin Tandon, 56. 
Koemer and Schulti; consider it quite distinct, and call it (the Cape 
plant) Thunberg ianinn, vi., 281. I think it best, therefore, to hold 
to Du Mortier’s name, which is certain. — C. C. Babington, m lit. 
13 Nov. 1876. 
Thalictrum maritimum. Hedgebanks between Barton Mills and 
Lakenheath, West Suffolk. July, 1876. — A. Bennett. The fruit is 
too immature to enable me to decide its name, but I suspect it to 
be small T. fiexuosum. Without perfectly ripe fruit, it is impossible 
to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion. — J. T. Boswell. 
T. fiavum, var. riparium. By the Codbeck, below Thirsk, Y’ork- 
shire. July 27, 1876. — T. J. Foggitt. Probably rightly-named, 
but all the full-grown capsules are changed into galls. One of the 
specimens has the leaves very narrow, though not so narrow as in 
a plant sent me from Oswestry, Salop, by Miss E. Jones, in July, 
1875. This I believe to be the T. jiaoum (3. angustifolium of 
Grenier and Godron’s ‘Flore de France,’ = T. nigricans, DC. 
T. angustifolium, “ Linn.,” Koch, has the root not at all creeping. 
T. angustifolium, “Linn.,” Grenier, has aj)iculate anthers. — J. T. 
Boswell. — Of the plants referred to by Dr. Boswell, Miss Jones was 
only able to send a few unsatisfactory specimens to the Club last 
year. The habitat is a hedge at Llansilin, near Oswestry, and in a 
letter to me Miss Jones says, “.I wished to have got a good many 
specimens, but I left the flowers to go to seed ; and to my great 
disappointment, a man cutting the hedge cut all the flowers off.” 
A. Thalictrum sent by Mr. Bagnall from Aston, Warwickshhre, is 
spharocarpum : not riparium, as he supposed. — T. R. A, B,
