BOTANICAL NOTES. 
certainly have passed for “ inflata and others for “ maritimci.” 
Bentliam, in his ‘Handbook,’ vol. i. p. 108, 1865, unites the two 
species. Is not he right? 
Trifolium agrarium x procumbens. At Iialvergate, in August, 
I found a Trefoil, which seemed exactly intermediate between the 
two forms known as T. agrarium and T. procumbens both in habit 
and the colour of the flowers. T. agrarium is upright, the stems 
almost unbranched, the heads of flowers oblong but almost globular, 
and the flowers themselves bright orange. T. procumbens is prostrate, 
the stems much branched, the heads of flowers oblong and smaller 
than in agrarium, and the flowers themselves pale-lemon colour. 
My specimens have a branched but not at all straggling upright 
stem ; the heads of flowers are rounder than in procumbens, but 
not so large as in agrarium; and the colour of the flowers is 
a bright yellow. Has not the form known as T. agrarium, and 
which is doubtfully native, been introduced with foreign seeds, 
and then hybridised with the native procumbens ? 
Vicia angustifolia b. Bobartii, Forster, was found at Sherring- 
ham in June, and is an addition for the “nc.” division. 
Centaurea nigra, b. decipiens, Tlmill. One patch was found 
in Holkham Park by Mr. Long, and the name comfirmed by 
Mr. Arthur Bennett. It is an addition to the county list, “nc.” 
division. 
Ajuga reptans, Linn. Metton, near Cromer; is an addition 
to the “nc.” division. 
Scilla nutans fl. albo. White Hyacinths were common 
near Cromer in June, 1891. There were a good many on the 
Lighthouse Hills, and also near the “ Encampment ” at Beeston. 
Bromus erectus, Huds. Sidestrand, in the new churchyard. 
This is an addition for the “e.” division.” 
1892. 
IIydrocharis morsus-ran/E. Early in this year Mr. J. II. 
Gurney sent me to name some small oblong tubers which he had 
taken out of the crop of a Golden-eye Duck : they were from 
a third to half an inch long, with a small nnicro at one end ; dark 
green, but bleached for about a third of their length from the blunt
