REPORT FOR 1890.

it is certainly the plant of Tiselius ! but Fieber so named a variety 
(Nolte’s typical f.) in 1838, so Tiselius’ name must fall, and he will 
probably rename it in his promised account of the species and its 
forms.” — Ar. Bennett. 
Potamogeton Zizii , , Roth., form (hybrid). R. Laune, near Killorglin, 
Kerry, 4th August, 1890. — R. W. Scully. “This is an extremely 
puzzling form, approaching some of the specimens named “P. Lonchites” ; 
as yet I do not see where to place it with any certainty.”— Ar. Bennett. 
P. pusillus , L. Grasmere, Westmoreland, August, 1890. — H. E. 
Fox. “P. obtusifolius , M. and K.” — -Ar. Bennett. 
P. flabellaius, L. Cefni River, Anglesey, August, 1890. — -J. E. 
Griffith. “Correct probably, — unless it really is referable to 
P. vaginalus , Turcz., but there is not sufficient material to decide this.” 
— Ar. Bennett. 
Carex divulsa, Good, form. Swansea, Glamorganshire, 31st May, 
1888, and cult., Shirley, 24th June, 1890. Named C. divulsa by 
Mr. Ar. Bennett, but diverging from the type in the direction of 
muricata , and still more so under cultivation. — W m. R. Linton. 
“ C. divulsa. Shews some approach to pseudo-divulsa ; it varies a 
good deal according to situation. I have seen it very large near Wye 
in Kent.” — Ar. Bennett. 
C. stricta , Good. ? Ditch by canal side between Newbury 
and Kintbury, July, 1890. A tall plant (4 feet) growing in mud, 
slightly creeping, not csespitose, which I doubtfully give the above 
name to, but it does not well answer to the descriptions, Can it be a 
form of C. acuta , L., with larger perigynia? The lower leaves were 
somewhat filamentous. — G. C. Druce. “ C. acuta , L., in the direction 
of var. prolixaP — E. F. Linton. “ C. acuta , L., tending towards var. 
prolixa , as you say.”— Ar. Bennett. 
C. tomentosa , L. The locality of Water Meadows, Marston Maisy, 
North Wilts, has not yielded the above sedge for some years. This 
year it has been gathered in three or four places in East Gloucester- 
shire, near Fairford. These specimens came from an upland pasture 
field near the latter place. They were most plentiful in or rather 
nearly confined to the furrows where C. glauca also grew. Now we 
know that it frequents drier situations than the original locality led 
one to expect, we may hope that it will be found over a more extended 
area, so as to prevent its extirpation. May, 1890. — G. C. Druce. 
C. fulva , Good., var. Hornschuchiana. Moorland, near Aber- 
gwessin, Breconshire, 17th July, 1890 . — Augustin Ley. “Among 
the specimens sent under this label were two (not distributed) of 
C. flava x fulva ( C . xanthocarpa , Degl.), accidentally put in.” — E. F. 
Linton. 
C. fulva , Good., var. xanthocarpal Moorland, near. Abergwessin, 
Breconshire, 17th July, 1890 . — Augustin Ley. “This is C. xantho- 
carpa , Degl., the hybrid between C. flava and C. fulva ; not a variety, 
as printed in the London Catalogue, ed. 8.” — E. F. Linton. 
C. flava , L. x fulva , Good. Near Sway, S. Hants, 5 th June, 
1890. — E. F. and Wm. R. Linton. Moffat, Dumfriesshire, 29th July, 
1890. The hybrid character of this plant may possibly be not so
