Hieracium iricum , Fries. Waas, Hoy, Orkney, August, 1880. — 
J. B. T. Fortescue (sent by Dr. Boswell). 
Hieracium prenanthoides , Vill. Paren’r Esgob, Brecon, 25 th 
August, 1880 . — Augustin Ley. 
Hieracium stnctum , Fries. Hobbister Rocks, Orphir, Orkney, 
August, 1880. — J. B. T. Fortescue (sent by Dr. Boswell). 
Hieracium strictum , Fries ? Approaching H. corymbosum , Fr. 
Shore, near Regal Burn, Waas, Hoy, Orkney, August, 1880. — J. B. T. 
Fortescue (sent by Dr. Boswell). 
Hieracium crocatum , Fries. Banks of the Wear, Bishop Auckland, 
South Durham, 19th August, 1880. — J. P. Soutter. A narrow- 
leaved form of H boreale. — J. T. Boswell. 
Hieracium umbellatum , Vill. Birkdale sand-hills, Southport, S.W. 
Lancashire, 4th September, 1880. Is this H. filifolium of Backh. ? 
Charles Bailey. Certainly a very narrow-leaved form ; but I have 
never seen a specimen of Backhouse’s filifolium. — J. T. Boswell. 
This closely resembles specimens I found between Dorking and 
Guildford, on dry sand ; but neither Mr. Bailey’s plant nor mine is 
the var. of Backhouse, which has a leafy stem, elongated, narrow, 
entire leaves, and looks quite different from ordinary umbellatum. 
(See remarks in his Monograph). — Arthur Bennett. 
Hieracium rigidum , Hartm. Hort. Kew, August, 1880. — J. G. 
Baker. Not H. rigidum of Backhouse, but H t 7 'ide?itatum, Fries. I 
see in the nth Edition of Hartman’s Handbook, in which the 
Hieracia are worked out by Rindeberg, the name H rigidum , 
Hartm., is transferred to a plant called H tridentatum , Fries, in 
the 9th edition; and rigidum , of the 9th edition, is in the nth 
combined with H. Friesii. — J. T. Boswell. 
Monotropa Hypopitys , L., var. hirsuta (H. multiflora , Scop.). 
Beech wood, near Farnborough, Hants, July, 1880. — D. Mc.Laurin

Erythrcea splicer ocepliala , Townsend. Chalk Downs, Isle of Wight, 
13th August, 1880 ( vide Journ. Botany for 1879, p. 327, and paper 
read at Linn. Soc., 2nd December, 1880). — F. Stratton. Mr. 
Townsend, in Journal of Botany for March, 1881, p. 87, describes 
this as E. capitata, Willd., var. a. sphcerocephala , giving Willdenow’s 
type plant as the var. b. Willdenowiana. — J. G. 
Linar ia repenti-vulgaris. Farningham, West Kent, 7th August, 
1880. — J. Groves. This seems most to resemble the form found at 
Bodmin, Cornwall, by Mr. H. C. Watson. — J. T. Boswell.
