Car ex arenaria , L., coarctata . Marshy sea-shore, Co. Down, 
Jun-e, 1876. — S. A. Stewart. 
C. muricata , L., pseudo-divulsa. Road-side ditch, Pinner, Mid- 
dlesex. — Eyre de Crespigny. This is ordinary C. divulsa. 
C. alpicola , Wahl. Clova Mts., 2,500 ft., Forfar, Aug., 1883. — 
H. E. Fox. “ C. Grypos , Schk.” — A. Bennett. This is merely a 
montane form of C. echinata , Murr. (C. stellulata , Good.) “Surely 
this or curia was sent as well as Grypos .” — W. H. Beeby. 
C. pilulifera , L.? var. Boggy ground, alt. 1, 800ft., Glen Shee, 
Perth, Aug. 4, 1883. — E. F. Linton. This is C Grypos , Schk. 
C. aquatilis , Wahl. Clova Mountains, and near Glas Maol, 
Forfar, Aug. 6, 1883. — W. R. and E. F. Linton and H. E. Fox. 
“ All C. rigida , Good.” — W. H. Beeby. “ Surely mixed — all large 
rigida , Good. Mr. Druce’s and Rev. W. H. Painter’s specimens are 
rightly named — at least mine are.” — Arthur Bennett. 
C. acuta , L. gracilis, Uechtritz. Marshy lake margin, Lough 
Allen, Co. Leitrim, Aug. 8, 1883. — S. A. Stewart. “ C. aquatilis , 
Wahl.” — A Bennett. See “ Journal of Botany.” 
C. aquatilis , Wahl, var. minor, Boott. Whitewater side, Forfar, 
July, 1883. There seems some confusion in the synonymy of this 
sedge which I apprehend should bear Mr. Watson’s name, although 
that is sometimes given to the larger lowland plant. C. minor is 
abundant by all the stream sides on the Clova tableland, such as 
Caness, Whitewater, Fialzoch, and Feulah burns. It was in full 
flower by July 14th, although this season at that time the snow was 
plentiful in the corries, such as Ceander and Callater, and corniced 
Glas Mheal, Carn y Glasha, Tolmount, etc., and had only very 
recently melted from the southern slopes of Tom y Buidhe and. 
Tolmount. There seems little except size and the darker coloured 
glumes to distinguish it from the lowland plant. — G. C. Druce. 
C. Watsoni, Bosw. Wick River, Wick, N.B., Aug., 1881. Coll. 
James Grant ; comm. W. H. Painter. As this is the locality where 
C. salina, var. katiegatensis was discovered, and as, in all probability, 
some of the latter may be already in herbaria under the former name, 
it would be desirable to examine all very northern specimens of C. 
Watsoni. My specimen is, however, what it purports to be, viz., C. 
Watsoni, Bosw. “ And mine is also.” — Arthur Bennett. 
C. vulgaris, L. uliginosa. Swamp near Felbridge, Surrey, June, 
1883. Barren shoots very numerous, flowering stems usually 4 or 5 
from the same tuft. — W. H. Beeby. This is the plant named C. 
vulgaris , var . juncella, by Dr. Almquist. See A. Bennett, in “Journal 
of Botany,” 1885, p. 50. 
C. glauca, Scop., Micheliana. Glen Shee, E. Perth, 1, 600ft.. Aug. 
3, 1883. — E. F. Linton. Is C. vulgaris. 
C. glauca , Scop., stidocarpa. Clova Mountains, August, 1883. 
H. E. Fox. Is also C. vulgaris. 
C. prcecox, Jacq. var. Clayey pasture-like flat on border of rail- 
line, Wyre Forest, one mile east of Wyre station, Worcestershire, 
June, 1883. Habit erect, spikelets two and three exserted, stems 
erect and straight. A tall growing form, more than a foot high. — F. 
A, Lees.
