REPORT FOR I 890. 305 
glandular plant, frequent in Derbyshire, for which a name was much 
wanted. — E. F. L. 
Hieracium diapha?ioides , Lindeb. Ballidon, Derbyshire, 12th 
August, 1889 . — Wm. R. Linton. “Dr. Lindeberg did not accept 
this as his H. diaphanoides. It is the same plant, I think, after 
allowing for the character given it by growing in limestone debris, as 
the Shirley plant that M. Arvet-Touvet has named H. vulgatum , var. 
sciaphilum (H. sciaphilum , Uechtr.)”— E. F. Linton. 
H. diaphanoides , Lindeb., or near. Atlow, S. Derbyshire, August, 
1890 . — Wm. R. Linton. “ Same as the Yeldersley vulgatum .” - — - 
E. F. L. “ I concur with you in calling this a dark-headed vulgatum 
form, — a form that I have from several stations from the same part of 
England. There is too much stellate pubescence on the involucre for 
H. diaphanoides .” — F. J. Hanbury. 
H . diaphanoides , Lindeb. Kepier Wood, Durham, July, 1889. — 
H. E. Fox. “ H. vulgatum , Fr.” — F. J. Hanbury. 
H. protractum, Lindeb. Rocks by the Loch of Cliff, Unst, 
Shetland, 27th July, 1886 (No. 610 ) ; Low sea cliffs, Mid Yell Voe, 
Yell, Shetland, 25th July, 1886 (No. 61 1). Dr. Lindeberg fully con- 
firms Mr. Hanbury’s naming of these two gatherings. I send, also, 
some cultivated examples of No. 610, as I believe most of the members 
will prefer a garden specimen of a new British plant to none at all. 
I cannot, however, avoid remarking that garden specimens accom- 
panied by labels (such as are sometimes sent to the Club), which do 
not state the locality whence the wild root or seeds were originally 
obtained, are quite useless to botanists, and should not be issued by 
the Distributor. — W. H. Beeby. 
H. sparsifolium , Lindeb. Bank of Ogwen River, near Bethesda, 
Carnarvonshire, August, 1890 . — Jno. E. Griffith. “Right.” — 
E. F. Linton. 
H. lapponicum , Fr. Stream side, Brecon Beacons, 8th Aug., 
1888. I send a few specimens of this plant from the original station 
recorded in Journal of Botany, 1889, p. 73. I fear no more specimens 
of this form will be available for distribution, until it is discovered in 
some fresh British localities. — A ugustin Ley. 
H. tridentatum , Fr. Dolbenmaen, Carnarvonshire, 2nd July, 
1890. — W. H. Painter and J. Ll. Williams. “Very nearly 
identical with Lindeberg’s No. 76 Hier. Scand. exsicc., H. rigidum , 
Fin., var. latifoliumP- — E. F. Linton. “ N’appartient, selon moi, ni 
au rigidum , ni a sa variete tridentatum. Par ses feuilles basilaires 
subpersistantes et ses petits poils glanduleux des pedoncules, c’est 
une plante appartenant a la sect. Pulmonarioidea , groupe Vulgata, 
et non une accipitrine. C’est tres-exactement mon H. septentrionale. 
Voyez la description et la synonymie que j’en donne ‘ Hier. Alp. 
Franc.,’ p. 86. Impossible de faire une description plus exacte ; 
tous les caracteres concordent ! ” Arvet-Touvet. “I think this is 
rightly placed to a form of H. rigidum, Htn., and if so, Lindeberg’s 
name takes priority of Arvet-Touvet’s.” — F. J. Hanbury. 
H. salicifolium , Lindeb. Root from Carnarvonshire : cult, hort., 
28th July, 1890 . — Augustin Ley. See last Report, p. 265.
