Edited by J. G. BAKER. 
Thalictrum saxatiU. Received tins year from Mr. J. H. Jeiiuer 
from Newmarket, and from Dr. Boswell from the Gog Magog Hills, 
the specimens from a plant grown in his garden at Bahnuto. 
Ranunculus Jiuitans. River Eamont, Cumberland, Rev. W. 
Wood ; gathered by W. Hodgson. New to subprovince 25. — A 
form with floating leaves from the Teviot, near Roxbiu’gh Castle ; 
gathered by Mr. A. Brotherston. 
R. intennedius, Hiern. Trevethick Moor, Penzance. — J. Rales. 
Caltha Gueran<ierii. Swampy s^iots in a wood at Lea Mill 
Bridge, South Devon.— T. R. A. Briggs. 
Fapaver strujosum, .My ton, Warwick, H. Bromwich; Wolver- 
hampton, Dr. Fraser ; and Kew, Surrey, G. Nicholson. 
P. Ixcoquii. Roadside at Kelso, Roxburgh. — A. Brotherston. 
Sisymbrium pannonicum. Sandy fields at Crosby, Lancashire. — 
J. Comber. 
Bnrharca stricta was very plentiful this year along the Surrey 
side of the Thames between Richmond and Kew. 
B. intermedia. Wall at Knackersknowle, and near the fort at 
St. Budeanx, S. Devon. — T. R. A. Briggs. 
Viola permixta. Hedge-bank at Merstham, Surrey, W. H. 
Beeby ; and a bank near Woolhope, and a boggy wood at Brunton, 
Herefordshire, Rev. A. Ley. 
Drosera intermedia. “ A curious stalked form of this species, 
which I have named in manuscript subcaul escejis, was found this 
summer in one place near Wybunbury Bog, Cheshire. It grew in 
floating masses in a peat-ditch filled with water, in the very 
wettest portion of the moss, where it was almost impossible to 
walk, the roots in some cases floating also, as in Utricularia, 
and almost or quite free from adherence of earthy matter.” — 
J. C. Melville. 
Folyyala vidyaris var. yrandiflura. Specimens so named were 
sent from Cwm Idwal, Carnarvon, Rev. A. Ley ; and chalk 
dRnis near Dover, A. Bennett. These I asked Mr. A. W. Bennett 
to examine, and he reports: — “The specimens marked Folyyala 
vulgaris var. yrandijiora from Cwm Idwal, collected by Mr. A. Ley, 
are nothing but rather large-flowered specimens of the ordhiary 
form. Those with the same name, gathered by Mr. A. Bennett 
near Dover, more resemble the Ben Bulben variety, both in the 
smaller lower leaves and fleshy habit, and in the apiculate wiry 
sepals. Still, no one who saw them together would say that 
the Kentish plant exhibited more than an approach towards the 
remarkable Irish variety.” 
Lychnis Githayo. Mr. T. Leighton, of Kew, sends through 
Mr. G. Nicholson a form gathered on the chalk downs near Epsom 
in which the sepals are regularly no longer than the petals, both 
being about an inch long.
