626 THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF THE BRITISH ISLES. 
“This is the type with spines of the pods shorter and the stipules 
slightly more foliaceous and less laciniate than usual.” — E. F. Linton. 
Melilotus indica , All. On ballast, Fleetwood, W. Lancashire, 3 1st July 
1900. Also cultivated at Walton from Fleetwood seedlings, with more 
advanced fruit, October 1900. — J. A. Wheldon. “Correct.” — Ed. 
Trifolium arvense , L., var. strictius , Koch. In ‘ FI. Deutsch,’ 
v., 270, Herr Freyn suggested this name, which he says is synonymous 
with T. Brittingeri of Weitenweber. It grew in great plenty on the 
slate debris at the quarries near Llanberis, Carnarvonshire, July 1900. 
— G. Claridge Druce. 
Ornithopus perpusillus , L. Llanwrtyd Wells, Breconshire, June 
1900. — W. H. Painter. “New record for v.-c. 42.” — Ar. Bennett. 
Vida gemella, Crantz. Growing with V hirsuta , Gray, on a 
hedge bank on the road from Ayton to the Victoria Jubilee Bridge, 
north-east Berwickshire, 12th July 1900. Not recorded for county 81 
in ‘Top. Bot.,’ p. 124.— Charles Bailey. 
V gemella , Crantz., var. tenuissima , Druce. Swithland Reservoir, 
v.-c. 55, 28th August 1900. — A. B. Jackson. “Correct.”— G C. 
Druce. 
V. villosa, Roth., var. glabrescens , Koch. Near Aberdare, 
Glamorganshire, September 1900. “It has much resemblance to 
V Cracca, but the prolonged and almost gibbous base to the petals at 
once distinguishes it from that species.” — G. C. Druce in ‘ Journ. of 
Bot.,” September 1897, p. 362. — H. J. Riddelsdell. 
V. Orobus, DC. Dolygear, Brecon, nth June 1900. In two 
spots one and a half miles apart.— H. J. Riddelsdell. 
V. lutea , L. Near Mont Orgueil Castle, St. Martins, Jersey, 29th 
May 1900. See ‘Journ. of Bot.,’ vol. 38, p. 278. — Stanley Guiton. 
Spircea Ulmaria , L., var denudata , Boenn. Llwydcoed, Glamor- 
ganshire, September 1900. This form is to be found almost whenever 
looked for in the counties around the Severn. I have had it from 
many localities. It seems to me to be a weakened state of the type, 
with which it usually grows. The quantity of bloom is usually smaller 
than with the type, and is frequently diseased, and the fruit does not 
ripen freely. The contrast between type specimens and the weak, 
unhealthy denudata form is very striking, especially at Llwydcoed. — 
H. J. Riddelsdell. “Correct.” — E S. Marshall. 
Rubus fissus , Findley. Road west of the railway station, Moffat, 
Dumfriesshire; altitude 450 feet; 26th September 1898. Record for 
county 72. Named for me by Rev. W. Moyle Rogers, to whom I am 
also indebted for the names of all the other brambles which I have 
sent for inclusion in this report.— Charles Bailey.
