Augustin Ley. “ Is eu-Aria^ — J. Gilbert Baker. “ I cannot see 
in what way these differ from P. eu-Aria. I have undoubted eu-Aria 
(seen in flower and fruit) from the Surrey Downs that have the base of 
the leaf as rounded and as tapering as any of these, and even more 
rounded than any of the leaves figured by Mr. N. E. Brown in ‘ E. 
B. Supp.’ t. 483a, as P. rotundifoiia^ Bechst. { = P- latifolia^ Syme.) so 
much so, as almost to be called subrotund, but the tomentum and 
veining that of eu-Aria. The cutting of the leaves of Mr, Ley’s 
specimens is also to be matched in eu-Ariai' — Arth. Bennett. 
Similar specimens were named P. Aria by Syme. Ehrhart appears 
to be the authority. See the ‘Beitr.,’ vol. iv., p. 20, 1 789. — G. C. Druce. 
Saxifraga rivularis, Linn. Aonach Mor, Westerness, August, 
1891. Cairngorm, Easterness, not Banff, August, 1891. — G. C. 
Druce. 
6". Sternbergii, Willd.? On rocks near Blackhead, co. Clare, 19th 
May, 1892. — H. C. Levinge. “Yes.” — J. G. Baker. Mr. N. E. 
Brown says this name should be replaced by that of S. decipiens, Ehrh., 
with which he says it is synonymous, but I have yet to be convinced 
that the Irish plant distributed above is identical with the Welsh S. 
decipiens. — G. C. Druce. “A saxifrage which I have in cultivation 
side by side with the Brandon forms, from all of which it differs 
markedly in habit. It appears to me to be a new variety or species.” — 
W. R. Linton. 
Ribes ?iigru 7 H, L. Pangbourne, Berks, July, 1892. — G. C. Druce. 
Callitriche obtusa?igula^ G^W. Marcham, Berks, July, 1891. — 
G. C. Druce. 
Prosera obovata, Mert. et Koch. Near Kinlochewe, W. Ross, 
August, 1890. — G. C. Druce. 
Ly thrum hyssopifolium, L. Waste damp ground, Foss Islands, 
York, August, 1889. — J. A.Wheldon. Linnaeus wrote Z. PPyssopifolia. 
Smith changed it to Z. hyssopifolium. The plant, a single specimen 
in bad condition, was only of casual origin. — G. C. Druce. 
Epilobium hirsittum^ L. Flowers nearly white. Southport, 28th 
August, 1892. — J. A. Wheldon. 
E. hirsutum^ L.,var. Near Kennington, Berks, September, 1892. — 
G. C. Druce. “A very villous form.” — E. S. Marshall. 
E. montanum x roseuni. These two parents were growing 
as weeds in a damp kitchen garden, and the specimens forwarded 
come from two roots of a good intermediate hybrid. Swansea, 
Glamorgan, July, 1892. — E. F. Linton. Rev. E. S. Marshall assents 
to this name. 
E. . Railway bank, Lydbrook, West Gloucestershire, 
15th August, 1892. I cannot name this Epilobium with any satisfaction 
to myself. It does not appear to agree with any form of E. roseum, 
Schreb., which I possess, nor with specimens of E. montanum x rosejim. 
In the locality from which I send it, it was in company with Eiysimum 
orientate, R. Br., and other aliens ; but a precisely similar plant grew 
on a bank about half a mile away, where no circumstances suggested 
introduction. — Augustin Ley. “Z". roseum, a state of poor dry soil.
