major , Lejeune. M. parietaricefolia mult, auctor. (non M. Allionii, 
Bor.).” — E. Malinvaud. 
Mentha arvensis , L., var. parietaricefolia ? Damp field side near 
Bradley Wood, S. Derbyshire, 25th Sept., 1890. — E. F. Linton. 
“ M. arvensis , L. M, ovalifolia , Timbal-Lagrave (non Opiz), 
Boreau classait cette forme dans son M. Hostii , mais ce n’est point le 
type,” — E. Malinvaud. 
Ballota nigra , L. A form with more gradually acuminate calyx 
teeth, but scarcely typical B. ruder aUs (which I gathered this year in 
the Prater at Vienna.) Road side, near Loddon bridge, Berks, July, 
1890.— G. C. Druce. I have much the same form as this from 
Paxton, Hunts, but should place it near the type ; also a form which 
approaches B. ruderalis much more nearly, from the Woodstock 
Road, in the suburbs of Oxford, — E. F. Linton. 
Atriplex (No. 1). Mudflats by R. Stour, Sandwich, Pegwell Bay, 
E. Kent, 8th October, 1890. — J. Cosmo Melvill. “Under this 
label, three of the specimens appear to be a prostrate seaside form of 
A. angustifolia, Sm., not uncommon ; one, fragmentary and gone 
over, is A. hastata , L., ; the remaining two are a plant which I have 
collected in the Isle of Wight, but for which I know no name ; these 
have rather spathulate leaves, with the blade broadly ovate. When a 
name is wanted for a plant, greater care should be taken in the 
selection of the specimens.” — E. F. Linton. 
Atriplex (No. 2). Salt marshes between Sandwich and “ The 
Salterns,” Pegwell Bay, E. Kent, 8th October, 1890. — J. Cosmo 
Melvill. “ A. hastata , L.” — E. F. Linton.

Arthur Bennett. 
Polygonum aviculare , L., var. microspermum , Jord. Cornfield, 
Whitnash, Warwickshire, August, 1890. — H. Bromwich. “Far too 
large in all parts for var. microspermum. I should call it small 
rurivagumP — A. Bennett. One specimen that I have kept is the 
var. arenastrum ; but I think the rest was as Mr. Bennett has named 
it.— E. F. L. 
P. mite , Schrank, var. umbrosa , Soeland. Roadside, Marston, 
Oxon, Sept., 1889. — G. C. Druce. The specimens are labelled 
P. mite , Schrank, of which they appear to be a weak few-flowered form ; 
the varietal name being added in a note sent by Mr. Druce for the 
Report. — E. F. L. 
P. Persicaria , L., var. elatum , G. et G. Cultivated ground, 
Milverton, Warwickshire, August, 1890. — H. Bromwich, “Seems
