REPORT FOR 1901. 
15 
Artemisia Stelleriana, Bess. In considerable plenty on the coast 
of the North Bull, Co. Dublin, August 1901, where it was first dis- 
covered by Mr. C. Moffat. I subsequently found it on the coast 
between Marazion and Penzance; and in 1900 I found a single 
specimen on the shore of Lunan Bay, Forfar. For further information 
see ‘Journ. Bot.,’ 1894, pp. 22, 70-75, and 104-106; ‘Botan. Notiser,’ 
1892, p. 197; ‘Bot. Soc. Edin.,’ 1900, pp. 307-313; and ‘Ann. Scot. 
Nat. Hist.,’ 1900, pp. 104-105. — G. Claridge Uruce. Also sent by 
Mr. Riddelsdell from the same station. 
Senecio squalidus y. vulgaris. Originally from Cork, 1897 ; Cam- 
bridge Botanical Gardens, July 1901. Comm. A. B. Jackson. See 
‘Irish Naturalist,’ 1897. — A. B. Jackson. “In this I can see nothing 
but S. vulgaris, L. ; and Mr. Bennett writes; ‘I agree with you.’ ” — Ed. 
S. spathuhefolius, DC. Cliffs near Holyhead, June 20th, 1901. — 
J. E. Griffith. 
Carduus arvensis (Curt.), var. mitis, Koch {teste Ar. Bennett). 
Casual on ballast by the canal, Aintree, v.-c. 59, S. Lancashire, 28th 
July 1901. — J. A. Wheldon. “'I'his plant, with leaves quite flat, is 
very unlike our common I.ancashire form. Mr. Williams states that 
Cirsium arvense, Scop., a, normale, Williams ( = var. genuinus, Syme), 
corresponds with var. / 9 , mite of Koch. I should consider the spinose 
undulate-leaved plant (? var. horridiim, Wimm.) to be our commonest 
form. I only recollect seeing this flat-leaved plant on two or three 
occasions, and then mostly as a casual. A few plants in the vicinity 
had practically entire leaves, and were probably var. setosum, C. A. 
Mey. 'I'hey flowered later (September is given by Babington for his 
setosus), and were cut down before they were in a condition to 
gather.” — J. A. ^Vheldon. ^‘‘Cnicus arvensis, var. mitis, Koch. So I 
name it.” — E. F. Linton. 
Cnicus arvensis, Floffm., var. setosus (Bess.). Canal bank, Aintree, 
S. Lancashire, 1 2th September 1901.— S. G.vsking. “Looks abnormal; 
abnormally ill-dried.” — E. F. Linton. “Well, I give it up; plant 
guessing is too unsafe.” — Ar. Bennett. 
Hieracium aurantiacum, L. Railway bank, near Melsey Road, 
Aigburth, S. Lancashire, loth June 1901. — S. Gasking. Only four 
specimens were sent. 
H. lingulatum, Backh. Fersit Forest, v.-c. 97, W. Inverness, 24th 
July 1896. — W. A. Shoolp.red. “Right.” — Ed. 
H. anglicum, Fr. Rocks on Penyghent, West Yorkshire. On the 
limestone ranges this and other hawkweeds were abundant, the sand- 
stone ranges close beside being bare, 26th July 1901. Confirmed by 
Mr. F. J. Hanbury. — Augustin Ley. “Typical.” — Ed. 
H. lima, F. J. Hanb. Cheddar Gorge, N. Somerset, 17th Sep- 
tember 1901. In abundant flower at this date. The early-flowering
