Galiwn . Sandy pasture, Chilworth, Surrey, 27th May, 1894. 
— S. T. Dunn. G. erectiim, Huds. 
G. Mollugo?, var. (i) Malborough, S. Devon, 9th July, 1894. 
Leaves glabrous, coriaceous, dark green, punctulate, with rather 
revolute margins, patent. Infloresence lax and rather few flowered. 
Petals with an apiculus about half as long as their limb. This looked 
very different from the ordinary form of Mollugo in Surrey. — E. S. 
Marshall. “ A narrow leaved form for which I know of no exact 
name.” — A. Bennett. (2) Near Churchstow, S. Devon, 9th July, 
1894. Leaves lanceolate or linear-lanceolate, awned, dotted, 
scarcely veined, dull (palish) green, mostly declining. Petals dull 
white, linear-oblong, with an apiculus one-quarter the length of 
the limb, or thereabouts. A very different looking plant from 
the Malborough one when fresh. — E. S. Marshall. “Very 
near G. elatum, Thuill., var. Bakeri^ Syme, if not identical.” — A. 
Bennett. I do not think anything can be made of the length of the 
apiculus of the corolla lobe. In my series of specimens of G. Mollugo^ 
the apiculus runs from quite short in a plant from E. Derbyshire 
to one as long as that of the Malborough plant in a specimen from 
Spetisbury, Dorset. It is noticeable that the apiculi of corolla and 
leaf mostly vary together, and that a large apiculus goes with a narrow 
leaf. I consider (i) to be a glabrous and rather narrow-leaved form 
of G. Mollugo, with ascending branches, (2) being another form 
characterised by distant patent branches. — W. R. L. 
G. Mollugo X verum. Sandy ground at the mouth of the Avon, 
Bigbury, S. Devon, 29th June, 1894. Fairly intermediate, perhaps a 
little on the Mollugo side. — E. S. Marshall. 
G. Mollugo X verum. (Approaching verum.) Sandhills of Bigbury 
Bay, near Bantham, S. Devon, 3rd July, 1894. This is an extreme 
form of the hybrid, which I found in several stations hereabouts, 
varying greatly. The parents grow together abundantly. The present 
plant greatly resembles G. verum in size and habit, but I have no 
doubt whatever as to its hybrid origin ; it occurs in profusion over a 
considerable extent of ground. Prostrate ; flowers small, pale yellow. — 
Edward S. Marshall. 
Asperula taurina, L. Root from Yarrow banks below Selkirk, 
naturalized: legit Boyd, 1892. Garden, Milford, 5th May, 1894. — 
E. S. Marshall. 
Valerianella olitoria, Moench. var. lasiocarpa, Reichb. Bigbury, 
S. Devon, 19th June, 1894. I am indebted for the varietal name to 
Mr. Arthur Bennett, who vox. pubescens, Coss. and Germ., as a 
later synonym. This seems to answer to the var. mixta of V. dentata. 
It was the only form of the plant which I saw in S. Devon last 
summer. — Edward S. Marshall. 
Filago germa 7 iicax minima} Boar’s Hill, Berks., Oct., 1894. Speci- 
mens were sent to Dr. Focke with an enquiry as to whether the plant 
was a hybrid, F. germanica x minitna. Dr. Focke replied, “I am not 
quite sure about your curious Filago. In the parts of the flower I see 
no difference from ger?nanica, but the disposition of the flower heads
