angustifolia , Koch, are: ‘elatior foliis omnibus lancelolatis obscurius 
serratis vel integerrimus.’ ” — E. G. Baker. “See ‘Report’ for 1892, 
p. 373, where I have said that the true angustifolia of Gaudin is a 
plant with narrow lanceolate leaves, whose margins are entire or 
obscurely crenated, with which Mr. Ley’s specimens do not agree.” — 
G. Claridge Druce. “ The lower leaves are too broad for angustifolia ; 
it is var. (a), vulgaris , Koch.” — J. Freyn. 
Aster salignus, Willd. Wicken Fen, 30th August 1892. I have 
also since distributed this plant as A. Novi-Belgii. I learn from 
Mr. Goode (in a letter to Mr. C. E. Salmon) that it was originally so 
named by Mr. A. Bennett, who had it on the authority of Prof. Asa 
Gray that our Wicken Fen plant was wrongly named and should be 
called A. Novi-Belgii. Mr. Bennett grew specimens received from 
Mr. Goode, and no doubt 'his examination of them decided him to 
retain the name A. salignus in ‘Lon. Cat.’ Unfortunately Capt. Steuart 
died before the question was settled, and as I know he had submitted 
the plants to an American authority, I distributed them under the 
name I found attached to the packet. I send these specimens as they 
are on the list of Desiderata, and also that those members of the Club 
who have received specimens named Novi-Belgii from Capt. Steuart 
or myself may correct the labels. The specimens were collected by 
Mr. G. Goode. — J. A. Wheldon. 
Filago apiculata , G. E. Sm. Near Taplow, Bucks. New county 
record. — G. C. Druce. 
F minima , L. In the open part of the Clydach gorge, between 
Bryn Mawr and Clydach, Breconshire, nth June 1897. New county 
record. — Charles Bailey. 
Gnaphalium undulatum , L. Thoroughly naturalised and abundant 
in several localities in Jersey, July 1897. It prefers dry sunny rocks. 
The species was first determined, I believe, by Prof. Babington, though 
it does not appear in his ‘Flora Sarnica’ of 1839. Liegard (‘Flore 
de Bretagne’) says: “Plante originaire du Cap de Bon Esperance et 
naturalised aux environs de Brest.” — L. V. Lester. “Agrees per- 
fectly with the cultivated specimens of the University Herbarium of 
this place (Prag).” — J. Freyn. 
Anthemis tinctoria , Linn., ‘Sp. PI.,’ 896 (1753). By the railway 
near Maidenhead, Berkshire, on the high embankment, July 1894. — 
G. Claridge Druce. 
Cotula coro?iopifo!ia , L. Near Leasowe, Cheshire, September 
1897. This plant now appears to be thoroughly established, is very 
abundant, and has obtained a footing in several ditches a considerable 
distance from the original locality.— J. A. Wheldon. 
Artemisia Absinthium, Linn., ‘Sp. PI.,’ 848 (1753). Near Cothill, 
Berkshire, September 1894. — G. Claridge Druce. 
Se?iecio campestris, DC., ‘Prod.,’ vi. (1837), 361. Near the White 
Horse Hill, Berks. — G. Claridge Druce.
