CAREX ERICETORUM, AND P5AMMA BALTICA, IN ENGLAND. 19 
Babington’s record was the first definite application of the 
name, but there is no doubt Sir J. G. Cullum’s* record of 
“ var. floribus violaceis, luteis, et virescentibus,” Bank near 
the Bridewell, Bury,” referred to sylvsstris. In the 3rd ed. of 
the Manual (1851) Babington gives them as two species. 
As bearing on the supposed hybridity, its occurrence in 
Ireland on Portmarnock dunes, f where no trace of falcata 
is to be found (and falcata itself is merely a very rare casual 
in Ireland), Mackay’s record of that plant in 18254 no doubt 
intending sylveslris. not then separated.
