tember, 1888 . — Eyre de Crespigny. Also named on label A. 
triandra , L. 2 var. ? contorta. The leaves are green on both sides, 
and the catkins paler, wanting, as do also the leaves, the yellow tinge 
of colour noticeable in the typical form ; moreover the scales are 
pubescent, as in undulata , but in a less degree ; and they are not 
nearly so silky ; the young shoots are .furrowed, as in Crowe’s contorta. 
Is it Trevirani , Spr. ? I have never met with any other form of 
triandra by the Thames-side but the above, and the hybrid undulata , 
which is frequent enough. — E yre de Crespigny. “ The young 
fruiting catkins are clearly A. undulata , Ehrh ; the foliage is not so 
typical, the leaves tapering less than usual in my specimen ; but the 
shoots supplied are weak, subsidiary branchlets, without a developed 
stipule.” — E. F. Linton. “A mixture of specimens. The leaf 
specimens belong to <S. triandra , L. The flowers to A. lanceolata, 
Sm. Too great care cannot be taken to make certain that leaves 
and flowers are taken from the same bush.” — Dr. Buchanan-White. 
A. lanceolata , Sm., is a synonym, I believe, of A. undulata , Ehrh. 
—Ed. 
Salix purpurea , L., var. Offord, Hunts, 28th April, 4th Septem- 
ber, 1884. — W. R. Linton. Also from Swanbourne, Bucks, April, 
October, 1883. — W. R. Linton. “Are S. purpurea, L.” — Dr. F. 
Buchanan-White. New record for Vice-county 31. 
A. purpurea, L., var. Turvey, Bed., April, September, 1888. — - 
W. R. Linton. Also Elstree, Middlesex, April, July, 1885. — “Are 
A. rubra , Huds., var. purpureoides, Gr. et Godr. A. rubra being a 
hybrid between A. purpurea and A. viminalis, frequently shows 
affinity with one rather than the other of its parents. These 
specimens exhibit greater resemblance to A. purpurea than to A. 
viminalis, but they are not such extreme forms as, e.g., well developed 
A. Forbyana , which also belongs to the var. purpureoidesP — Dr. F. 
Buchanan-White. 
A. viminalis , L., var. intricata. I wish to answer the question 
asked by Dr. F. B. White in the ‘Report’ for 1887, p. 189. The 
smaller leaved specimen from Wilton was certainly gathered from the 
same bush as the larger. — A ugustin Ley. 
A. daphnoides , Vill. Hort. Sprowston. — E. F. Linton. “Yes.” — 
Dr. F. Buchanan-White. 
A. cinerea, L., f. gyjiandra, and f. androgyna. Holme Fen, Hunts., 
May, 1888.— W. R. Linton. “ Monstrosities, probably of A. cinerea, 
but, in the absence of leaves, the species must remain a little 
uncertain.” — Dr. F. Buchanan White. 
A. aurita, L , f. gynandra. Shirley, Derbyshire, 1 ith May — 9th 
June, 1888. — -W. R. Linton. “ A monstrosity, probably of A. aurita ; 
but the leaves are too young. Monstrosities of the catkins occur in 
almost all willows, but are not worthy of being distinguished by name. 
Mature leaves as well as flowers should always be sent.” — Dr. F. 
Buchanan White. New record for County 57. 
A. sphacelata, Sm. Near Settle, Yorks., Co. 64, July, 1888. — W. 
H. Painter. I suggested to Dr. F. B. White that this was only an 
exstipulate form of A. caprea with more entire leaves. He remarks
