REPORT FOR 1 882. 
73 
Loch, Edinburgh, August, 1882 . — Charles Bailey. I should call 
this H. nodiflorum , genuinum. It is the same form as H. nodiflorum 
var. Worlaby, North Lincoln, 1882 — G. Webster. 
CEnanthe silaifolia , Bieb. Meadows, Lugg Mills, Herefordshire, 
13th June, 1882. — A. Ley. 
Selinum Carvifolia , L. Near Brigg, No. Lincolnshire, 14th 
Sept., 1882. See Proceedings of the Manchester Literary and Philo- 
sophical Society, 1882-3, p. 44. — F. A. Lees. (Coll. : Charles Bailey). 
Fordham, Cambs, August, 1882. — A. Bennett. (Coll. : W. Cross.) 
Carduus pycnocephalus , Jacq. Slope under the Hoe, S. Devon, 
2nd June, 1882. T. R. Archer Briggs. See Flo., Plymouth, pp. 
191, 192. 
C. nutanti-crispus. St. Weonard’s, Herefordshire, 10th Oct., 
1882. — A. Ley. This I call acanthoides. — C. C. Babington. I would 
name accordingly (i.e., nutanti-crispus ), also the plant from “Cumnor, 
Berks, August, 1884. G. C. Druce.” — J. T. Boswell. 
C. crispus, var. polyanihemos. St. Weonard’s, Herefordshire, 2nd 
September, 1882. — A. Ley. Is probably right, but has the leaves 
more tomentose than usual, consequently it approaches the normal 
form of C. crispus. J. T. Boswell. 
C. crispus, var. litigiosus. St. Weonard’s, Herefordshire, 10th Oct., 
1882. — A. Ley. Seems to me the same as the previous plant, 
gathered later in the season when the peduncles have elongated. — 
J. T. Boswell. 
Arctium intermedium , Lange. Banks of the Wye, Little Doward, 
Herefordshire, Sept., 1882. — A. Ley. (Coll. B. M. Watkins.) I 
think correct ; but why cannot collectors gather perfect specimens, 
especially of difficult plants like these ? A root-leaf is wanted. — 
C. C. Babington. Seems to me eu-minus , but it is a side shoot, and 
consequently difficult to pronounce upon. — J. T. Boswell. 
Gnaphalium luteo-album , L. Wells, Holkham, W. Norfolk, 18th 
Sept., 1882. On a wild piece of ground near the sea, away from 
cultivated ground ; if not native, at least well-established. — E. F. 
Linton. 
Senecio spathulifolius , D.C. Near Holyhead, Anglesea, June, 
1882. — J. E. Griffith. 
Chrysocoma Linosyris , L. Berry Head, Devon, June, 1856. — 
A. W. Bennett. (Coll. E. T. Bennett.) 
Petasites vulgaris \ Desf., var. hybrida. Claverdon, Warwick, 
May, 1882. — R. L. Baker. Tussilago hybrida , L. Sp. P. 1214. 
“ Eng. Bot. ed. 1, vol. 6, t. 430. Smith, Eng. FI. var. b. Hooker 
and Arnott’s Brit. FI. ed. 8, p. 249, var. b. florets nearly all fertile 
Tussilago hybrida , L.” In other words it is really a fertile form of 
P. vulgaris, though supposed by Linnaeus to be a separate species. 
It seems much rarer than the ordinary plant, but more plentiful in 
the Midland and Northern Counties than in the South. Mr. G. 
Nicholson told me that it grows in several places in Yorkshire. — 
Arthur Bennett. 
* P. albus , Gaert. Near Warwick, April, 1881. — E. Lomax. 
Leontodon autumnalis , var. pi'atensis. Clova, Forfar, July, 1882. — 
J. E. Sunderland. 
Picris hieracioides , var. arvalis. Low cliffs, near Southwick, W.
