[with] much shorter segments, peduncles shorter, flowers very small, 
rarely fertile; allied to Batrachium hirsutissimum, Prahl, ‘Krit. FI. Sch, 
Hols.,’ 1890, p. 4, and R. phellandrifolius, ‘FI. Danica,’ t. 2357.” Mr. 
Arth. Bennett kindly tells me that Herr Freyn thinks it is Batrachium 
carinatu/H, Schur., but although he does not agree with this determina- 
tion prefers to leave it under Freyn’s name until he convinces him of 
its distinctness. My first acquaintance with the plant was made in 
July, 1875, when searching for Elaiine Hydropiper in Llyn Coron, 
Anglesey. I sent specimens to Dr. Boswell, who thought it was R. 
duitans^ var. Bachii. Other critical botanists suggested var. penicillatus 
and var. salsuginosus as probable names. According to Herr Freyn 
Batrachium carinatuni^ Schur., belongs to aquatilis because of its 
papillose stigma, not as Schur. himself placed it near R. Baudotti . —

Ra?iunculus trichophyllus^ Chaix, var. demersum, N. E. Br. Rescobie 
Loch, Forfar, July, 1882. The R. confervoidcs oi ‘ Journ. Bot.,’ 1880, 
p. 344, not of Fries. — G. C. Uruce. 
R. tripartitus, DC., c. intermedins, Knaf., near Penrhoslligwy 
Church, Anglesey, May, 1892. — J. E. Griffith. In ‘E. B. Suppl.,’ 13, 
Mr. N. E. Brown says this is merely a condition of growth, i.e., having 
no submerged leaves, and is not a distinct variety of R. tripartitus, 
DC. — G. C. Druce. 
R. acris, L., var. vulgatus, Jordan. Aonach Mor, and neighbour- 
ing corries, on the hills west of Glen Spean, Westerness, August, 
1891. On these specimens (which Dr. Wettstein and Prof. A. von 
Berner agree in naming as above) Herr Freyn reports : — “They have 
very slight covering of hairs, and such forms have not been noticed 
before. In habit they remind one of the northern forms of R. acris. 
The rhizome is also very weak as compared with that of typical 
vulgatus, no doubt in consequence of the more damp climate.” — G. 
C. Druce. 
R. acris, L. (sens, lat.), var. pimilus, Wahl. Corrie Sneachda, 
Easterness, August, 1891. This extreme form of W. vulgatus, Jord., I 
have only seen on the Cairngorm. The plants of Glen A’an and 
Braeriach belong to the forms of R. vulgatus alluded to above by 
Herr Freyn. I still think it is a good variety. Dr. Lange agrees 
with the name. — G. C. Druce. 
Papaver Rhoeas, L. var. Pryorii. Sandy fields between Abingdon 
and Wootton, Berks, July, 1892. By the above name is intended 
any form of P. Rhoeas which has crimson hairs on the peduncle. 
The variety, equally with the type, shews considerable diversity of 
leaf form. — G. C. Druce. 
Corydalis bulbosa, DC. Shrubbery at Totteridge, Herts, May, 
1892. — A. H. Wolley-Dod. The record was published in the 
‘ Phytologist,’ 1855-56, p. 391, by the editors, W. Pamplin and A. 
Irvine, under the name of C. solida. The same wood (Puget’s Wood, 
which according to the ‘Flora of Herts’ is a shrubbery) yielded Crocus 
vernus and the red primrose. In ‘ Supp. E. B., add. iii.,’ Mr. N. E. 
Brown suggests that this should be called Neckeria bulbosa, N. E. Br., 
but Adanson’s genus Capnoides, although faulty as an adjectival
