REPORT FOR 1900. 
637 
Hieracium caledonicum , F. J. H. Coast cliffs, Kyle of Tongue, W. 
Sutherland, 23rd July 1900. — W. A. Shoolbred. And from Betty 
Hill, W. Sutherland, 30th July 1888. — E. F. Linton. 
H. caledonicum , F. J. Hanb. Brecon Beacon range, 31st July 
1900. Seen by Mr. Hanbury, and pronounced by him “typical 
caledomcumP This plant grows at many stations in the higher parts 
of the Brecon Beacon range, but never apparently in great abundance 
at any one station. I have never found it at a lower elevation than 
about 1600 feet. — Aug. Ley. 
II. rubicundum , F. J. Hanb. Cwm Idwal, Carnarvonshire, 16th 
August 19.00; with Rev. W. R. Linton.— Aug. Ley. 
H. argenteum , Fr., var. septentrionale , F. J. H. Coast, Skirray, 
VV. Sutherland, 28th July 1900. — W. A. Shoolbred. 
H. nitidum , Backh., var. siluriense , F. J. H. Cliffs of Brecon 
Beacons, July 1900. Mr. Hanbury has pointed out to me that this 
plant, which I had sent out as H. diaphanum , Fr., var. cacuminum , 
Ley, is in reality H. nitidum , Backh., var. siluriense , F. J. Hanb. I 
cordially agree, and have altered the labels in accordance with this 
correction. — Augustin Ley. 
H. scoticum , F. J. Hanb. Coast, Skirray, W. Sutherland, 28th 
July 1900. — W. A. Shoolbred. 
H. hypochceroides , Gibs., var. Cyathis , A. Ley; small form. Graig 
Cille, Breconshire, 5th June 1899. 14th June 1900. On mountain 
limestone, abundantly. — Augustin Ley. 
H. hy p o cheer o ides , Gibs., var. saxerum, F. J. Hanb. Llyn-fan- 
fechan, Carmarthenshire, August 1899. These specimens do not, I 
fear, represent the variety very well, but I feel sure belong to it. They 
are further from type H. hypochceroides than the var. saxerum usually 
is. The blotched root-leaves are hardly shewn upon these specimens, 
but were always present upon the young seedling plants, and wherever 
the younger leaves still remained upon the older plants. — Augustin 
Ley. 
H. aggregation, Backh. Rocks, Glen Einach, E. Inverness, nth 
August 1890. — H. Groves. “Yes.” — F. J. H. 
H pollinarium , F. J. Hanb., var . platyphyllum, Ley. Taren Esgob, 
Brecon, 12th July 1S97. Coll. A Ley; comm. E. F. Linton. I send 
these specimens, which Mr. Ley kindly gave me, labelled with his 
name for the plant. They are undoubtedly Mr. Ley’s var. platyphyllum ; 
but I cordially endorse Mr. Hanbury’s opinion (‘ B. E. C. Rept.,’ 1897) 
that it cannot be left under H. pollinarium . — E. F. Linton. 
IP. murorum , var. lepistodes , Johanss., teste Rev. W. R. Linton. 
Ash wood Dale, Buxton, Derbyshire, 13 th July 1898.— W. H.
