THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF THE BRITISH ISLES. 
Mid-Perth, August, 1888. Varies greatly as to leaf cutting, but never 
assuming the shape of the leaves of the Cairngorm plant, from which 
they differ in texture, colour, and size. The entire stem-leaves so 
characteristic of petrcca, are often developed to a striking extent. The 
flowers are much larger than in the Cairngorm plant. I could not 
see that the plant owed its difference in leaf-cutting to growing in a 
moister or drier situation. One of the most typically entire-leaved 
forms grew on the top of a detached boulder, while one of the most 
deeply cut-leaved forms on Ben Laoigh occurred in a water-course, 
and always wet with the spray from the waterfall ; and this plant, too, 
was very hispid. Although it is difficult to place any varietal 
differences on paper, its appearance is so very different from the 
Cairngorm plant that I think it worth recognition. I have seen 
nothing like it from other localities. After one year’s cultivation the 
plants from the Cairngorm, and var. grandifolia from Ben Laoigh, 
retain their respective characteristics. — G. Claridge Druce. “ Is 
not this near floribunda, Schur., and transsilvanica , Schur. ? but I 
have no specimen.” — Arthur Bennett.

Cardami'ne amara , L., pink flowered form. Hey ford, Oxon, 
June, 1888; see Gren. et Godr., 1 FI. de France,’ vol. i. p. 109. It is 
not the hybrid mentioned in ‘ FI. Oxfordshire,’ p. 28. Mons. Barbey 
says, “Should be a new and interesting variety for England.” — G. 
Claridge Druce. 
C. flexuosa , With. Burghfield, Berks, August, 1888. Luxuriant 
shade-grown form, when the flowering is over having much the 
aspect of C , cunara. — G. Claridge Druce. It will come under the 
var. umbrosa of Gr. et Godr. — Ed.

Erophila proccox , Reichb. Old walls at Stone Easton, N. 
Somerset, 8th May, 1888. This brachycarpous form, known to me 
for some years, has been named prcecox by a Record Club referee. — J. 
Walter White. This is the old Draba brachycarpa. De Candolle 
named it an Erophila before Reichenbach. I send a few specimens 
from Sparsey Bridge, Oxford, with more inflated fruit, but, still, 
rather to be referred to this than to E. inflata , neither of which, in 
my opinion, is worthy of specific rank. Also type brachycarpa 
from Stonesfield, Oxford, May, 1886. — Ed. New County record for 
Vice-county 6. 
Cochlearia officinalis, L., var. Rocky, damp ledges, near a small 
stream, E. side of Ben Hope, Sutherland, 2,600 feet, July, 1888. —

Hesperis matronalis , L. Woods at Amberley, Gloucestershire,
