QLderi, auct. ang. = C. Jiava, var. cyperoides, Marss. It would 
probably be called var. lepidocarpa by Mr. H. C. Watson and 
botanists of that era, as until recently Tausch’s plant was mis- 
understood. Although not precisely agreeing with the plant, at 
present I see no better way than putting these plants to C. flava, 
var. minor, Towns., (though it may be var. GEderi, Lilj., of which 
it appears to be a shade grown form) ; doubtless this name will be 
found to be antedated. I append a description of C. lepidocarpa, 
Tausch, in ‘ Flora’ 179, 1834. “Spica $ solitaria longe ex.serta, $ 
2, — 3 remotis ovatis, infima pedunculata bractea lineari elongata 
vaginanite suffulta stigmatibus 3, fructibus inflato-tumidis subor- 
biculatis compressis nervosis rostro 2 dentatis retrorsum dense 
imbricatis, culmo subfiliformi scabro.” — G. C. Druce. 
Panicum glabrum, Gaudin. Sandy ground, Telford, Surrey, 
Augu.st, 1892. — E. S. Marshall. 
Setaria viridis, Beauv. Didcot, Berks, August, 1892. — G. C. 
Druce. Casual only. 
A. glauca, Beauv. Abundant on Foss Island, York, growing with 
S. viridis. August, 1889. — J. A. Wheldon. 
Alopecurus fulvus, Sm. Near Wokingham, Berks, August, 1892. — 
G. C. Druce. 
Phleum alpinuni, L. Aonach Mor, Easterness, August, 1891. — 
G. C. Druce. 
P. pratense, L., var. stoloniferum, Bab. Cromer, Norfolk, 25th 
July, 1892. This grows mixed with P. a 7 'enariu 7 u, Linn., at the 
extreme edge of the cliff, smothered in blown sea sand, but it seldom 
flowers. — H. D. Geldart. “ I have not seen Prof. Babington’s 
plant, this may represent it, one cannot determine the colour of 
anthers in the specimen.” — Arthur Bennett. “ Is not a true variety, 
but depends only on casual conditions of growth. It has no true 
stolons, but the base of the culm is ascendant and a little creeping.” — 
E. Hackel. 
Agrosiis canina, L., var. pallida. Fish pool, Cheshire j coll. G. A. 
Holt, July, 1892; comm. — J. H. Steuart. Said to be named by 
E. Hackel, as was the following. 
A. canina, L., var. inutica, Doll. Oakmere, Cheshire ; coll. 
G. A. Holt, July, 1892 ; comm. — J. H. Steuart. 
A. ca 7 iina, L., var. scotica. Hack. Ben Eay, W. Ross, August, 
1889. — G. C. Druce. Still in cultivation at Oxford, and now scarcely 
differing from tj^pe. 
A. canma, L. Bog form with roots and capillary leaves at the 
lower nodes. See ‘Rep. Bot. Ex. Club,’ 1884, p. 118. Festiniog, 
Merioneth, August, 1892. — W. R. Linton. “Var. mutica, Doll.” 
— E. Hackel. Apparently one or two plants of Descha 7 /ipsia discolor 
have been mixed with this, since the Rev. E. F. Linton tells me the 
sheet sent to him belonged to that species. 
A. alba, L. An erect form growing profusely on the barren sand 
east of the embankment to the north-east of Southport, S.W. 
Lancashire, 27th August, 1892. — Charles Bailey. Is vda. coarctata 
Koch, ad. mariti 77 ia 77 i vergens, teste E. Plackel.
