will endeavour to furnish a series from the West of Ireland. G. 
Claridge Druce. “See ‘Rep.’ for 1895, p. 491, where this same 
plant was referred, rightly I consider, to montanumP — W. R. L. 
Utricularia Bre^nii^ Heer.? Pond near Tilston Church, Cheshire, 
23rd August 1899. I have known this plant for several years, and 
have passed the pond where it grows many times for the past twenty 
years, but have never observed flowers. Mr. Ar. Bennett in 1894 
thought it might very likely be U. Brernii^ Heer., and the Rev. E. F. 
Linton concurred in his views, but there can be no certainty without 
flower. — A. H. Wolley-Dod. “ I think U. minor grown in deepish 
water.” — E. F. Linton. 
Mentha rotundifolia, Huds. Near Aberayron, Cardiganshire, 26th 
August 1899. New for v.c. 46, apparently. — E. S. Marshall. 
M. longifoiia, Huds., var. Nichohoniana^ Strail. Near Hereford, 
1 6th September 1899. Identical, I believe, with the original specimens 
from Whitney. — A. Ley. “ No doubt the same form as the original 
plant described from Whitney, but we do not see any characters to 
separate it from the ordinary English form of M. lo?igifolia = M. 
silvestris, Linn., Yar. i. of Baker’s ‘ Monograph.’” — H. and J. CroYes. 
3 f. viridis, Linn., form.? Riverside near Hereford, i6th Septem- 
ber 1899. I suppose this must be simply M. viridis^ Linn., but in 
certain respects it seems to approach M. Nicholsoniana, near to which 
it was growing. Can it be a hybrid viridis x Nicholsoniafia ? I found 
one large root only. — A. Ley. “This appears to be the same form as 
Mr. Dunn’s puzzling plant, labelled J/. silvestris^ Linn., form., etc., from 
Surrey, B. E. C. ‘Rep.,’ 1894, p. 458, on which M. Malinvaud 
suggested that it might be viridis x silvestris. Mr. Ley’s observation 
that his plant was growing near M. Nicholsoniana seems to me to 
justify M. Malinvaud’s and Mr. Ley’s suggestion of this hybrid origin.” 
— E. F. Linton. 
M. sativa, Linn. Aberdare, September 1899. — H. J. Riddelsdell. 
“Yes.” — E. F. and W. R. L. 
M. sativa, var. siihgladra, Baker. Banks of the Hodder, near 
Mytton, W. Lancs, August 1899. — J. A. Wheldon. M. gentilis, 
Linn. The peculiar fragrance of this species is still perceptible in the 
dried specimens.”— W. R. L. 
M. sativa, Linn., var. subglabra^ Baker ? Sellack, Herefordshire, 
1 6th August 1899. A very frecjiient mint on the Wye in Hereford- 
shire ; always recognisable from M. sativa, Linn., by its intensely 
sweet scent, in which it recalls M. gentilis, Linn. Is it not really 
referable to that species in spite of the few hairs on the corolla? Un- 
doubtedly native on the Wye. — A. Ley. “Is this not M. rubra, Sm.? 
The corolla and pedicels are glabrous; although the flowers are rather 
small, I should be inclined to refer it to M. rubra rather than to M.
