8 THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF THE BRITISH ISLES. 
to the British Isles from the shore near Strangford Lough, Co. 
Down, where it is said to be native. 
Festuca maritima, Linn, (see ‘Journ. Bot.’ p. ^53), has 
been found by the Rev. Adrian Woodruffe-Peacock in Lincoln- 
shire at Carlby, just before the junction of the Cornbrash and 
Great Oolite Clay ; but the plant is a South European species, 
and is scarcely likely to be native there. It differs widely in 
structure from any of our British Fescues, being placed by 
Nyman in the genus Nardurus as N. tenella, but it bears a some- 
what superficial resemblance to some forms of F. sciuroides. 
Glyceria distans, Wahl., var. tenuiflora, Gren. and Godr. 
(see ‘Journ. Bot.’ p. 408), a new British variety from Kent and 
Sussex, has been distributed this year from the former county. 
Arrhenatherum avenaceum, Beauv., var. biaristatum 
(Peterm) (see ‘Journ. Bot.’ p. 408), another new British variety, 
was distributed by the writer last year from Dungeness, Kent, as 
a form of Arrhenatherum. 
PoA ALPiNA, Linn., var. acutifolia (see ‘Journ. Linn. Soc.’ 
pp. 421-9). I'he writer has in the paper quoted given this name 
to the plant from Loch-na-gar, which appears in the ‘ London 
Catalogue ’ as Poa stricta, Lindeb. 
P. LAXA, Haenke, var. scotica. In the same paper cited 
above the writer has given the above name to the plant named 
Poa laxa, Haenke, in Syme’s ‘ English Botany.’ It has only been 
found on Loch-na-gar, and by the Garachary Burn in South 
Aberdeenshire. 
Lepturus filiformis, var. pycnanthum, Hackel in lit. A 
new variety which Professor Hackel has named from plants dis- 
tributed this year from Iver, Bucks, where it is only of casual origin. 
Besides the ‘ Flora of Derbyshire ’ by the Rev. W. R. Linton 
already alluded to, another member, Mr. L. Lester-Garland, 
has published ‘ The Pdora of Jersey.’ To both members the 
congratulations and thanks of British botanists are due for their 
important contributions to Phyto-geography. 
In conclusion, may I thank once more the members for
