Alisma Planta;io, L., b. lanccolatiwi . Ditches, Lewes, E. Sussex, 
August 25, 1877. — J. H. A. Jennek. 
Juncus covipressus, Jacq. Tweedside, Makerstouu, Koxburgh, 
July, 1873. Growing close to the edge of the Tweed, in fissures 
of igneous rock, above twenty miles from the sea. This is the 
only siDot in the district where I have detected the typical inland 
plant. — Andrew Brotherston. Confirmed by Dr. Boswell. 
Carex ericetonim, PoUich. Icklingham Heath, between Thet- 
ford and Barton Mills, W. Suffolk ; growing plentifully among 
Calluna, with C. prmcox, &c., on high ground, overlying chalk. May, 
1877. More abundant than G. pra^cox^ and easily recognised. I 
also gathered it on the grassy sides of the road beyond the heath 
for 1^ miles, and found one specimen on Eisby Heath. — A. 
Bennett. 
Anthoxanthum ruelii, Lee. & Lam. AVhittington, Staffordshire, 
August, 1877. In abundance in a field, probably introduced with 
grass seeds. Mr. W. .Matthews, of Birmingham, and the Kev. J. 
H. Thompson found it in another grass field near Churchill, 
AVorcester shire, about two miles from this locality. — J. Feaser.

Lough Neagh, June 30, 1877. — S. A. Stewart. 
Acena strigosa, Schreb. Fields, Kelso, Eoxburgh, September, 
1873 ; September, 1877. Besides the typical plant I send a few 
specimens with dark-coloured seeds. Both vars. were equally 
plentiful in 1873, growing intermixed. The difference in colour is 
not owing to the stage when gathered. I sowed some seeds of 
each sort, and both came true. This species is confined to the 
light soils in this district, whilst A.fatua is generally found on the 
heavy soils. — Andrew Brotherston.

moor, on rocks facing north, S. Devon, July, 1877. — AAh Moyle 
Kogers.
