in locality. In 1794 Sibtliorp found this species on the walls of 
Rewley Abbey. Since that time the Abbey has been demolished, but 
the plant still continues plentifully on the Cemetery walls. It is a 
scarce plant in the county. — G, C. Druce. 
Arenaria trinervia^ L., forma qumqiie 7 iervia, Beckenham, Kent,

Sagma apetala^ L., var. prostrata^ Bab. Gravel walks, Milverton,

Elatine Hydropiper^ L. Frensham Gt. Pond^ Surrey, August, 
1887. — Walter W. Reeves and J. Groves. 
Trifolium agrarium^ Linn. Plentiful in cultivated fields near 
Dunphail and Logie, Co. Nairn, 95 ; also abundant near the Boat 
of Garten, Easterness, 96. It appears to have been sown for fodder. 
It is a beautiful species, vieing with T'. badium or T. aureum . —

Anthyllis Vulneraria^ L. Near Stouting, E. Kent, 3rd July, 1887. 
I send a variety of this plant, in which the stem is very hispid with 
spreading hairs. Dr. Lange names it var. hirsutissima, DC., but as 
that plant is described as having red flowers, I suppose Dr. Lange 
would include under that name also the var. Allionii^ DC., which 
differs only in having yellow flowers, and which, strictly, seems to be 
the name of the plant. This form is certainly not the common one of 
our chalk hills, which usually has the stem, &c. subglabrous, or with 
a little adpressed hair. I have met with the variety in one locality 
in Surrey, as well as about Stouting, in E. Kent, whence I now 
send examples, and where it seems to be abundant. — W. LI. Beeby.

I also send a cultivated specimen. Although but a slight variety, and 
usually found growing with the type, yet the same clump grown at 
Reigate, first in wet peat, and afterwards in the sandy soil of the 
district, has maintained its characters for several years. — W. H. Beeby.

R. cordifolius, W. & N. Overhanging a brook near Harracles 
Mill, Rudyard, Staffordshire, 8th September, 1887. A new county 
record, detected by Mr. J. G. Baker. In a walk of about six miles, 
between Rudyard and Rushton, eight other Rubi^ not previously 
recorded for Co. 39, were noted, viz., Lindleianus^ villicaulis^ umb?vsus, 
Sprengelii, Borreri^ Radula, infestus^ and tuberculatus ( dumetorum ) j 
and the tract traversed was quite as remarkable for the absence of 
forms which might have been expected to have occurred, R. discolor 
for instance. We also collected in the same district, and county, the 
following species, not recorded in ‘ Topographical Botany,’ ed. ii., 
viz. : Ranunculus peltatus^ Potentilla procwnbens^ Epilobium obscunwi^ 
Galium elongatum^ Valeriana Mikanii^ Arctium nemorosuni^ Veyvnica 
Buxbaumii^ Atriplex ei'ecta^ Potamogeion 7 iatans, and Sparganium
