26 THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF THE BRITISH ISLES. 
Rhinanthus minot\ Ehrh. Small coast form, St. Anne’s, W. 
Lancs. (6o), July 1903. — J. A. Wheldon. Alecforolophus minor, 
J, von Sterneck. Rhinant/ius Crista-galU, Linn — G. C. D. 
Rhinanthus minor, Ehrh. ? Sea coast, Wallasey, Cheshire, 
July 1903. — J. A. Wheldon. Atedorolophus minor, J. von Sterneck. 
R. Crista-gaili, Linn. — G. C. D. The Rev. E. S. Marshall was 
disposed to refer this and the preceding to R. sienophyllus. 
Rhmanthus sienophyllus, Schur. Warminster, S. Wilts, June 
1903, named Alecforolophus sienophyllus by Dr. J. von Sterneck, 
who added that the internodes are remarkably long. This seems to 
be the rule in our British forms of the plant. Not previously known 
from Wilts. — E. S. Marshall. Also from Braemore, W. Ross., 
and from Winslow, Bucks, July 1902. — G. Claridge Druce. 
Orobanche Picridis, F. Schultz. St. Margaret’s, Kent, July 
1903 — G. Claridge Druce. 
Mentha . Spontaneous weed in garden at Sellack, 
Herefordshire, 21 August 1903. — Augustin Ley. This is practi- 
cally identical with the plants I distributed from Shotover 
Hill, Oxfordshire (see ‘Report’ for 1888), the differences 
being such as would be caused by the place of growth. I name 
it Mentha cardiaca, which is the plant M. Briquet in ‘ Bull. 
Herb. Boissier,’ iv. (1896) p. 776, calls M. gentilis, var. car- 
diaca, and is considered by him to be a hybrid. See Wildeman 
and Durand’s ‘Flore de la Beige,’ fasc. 12, p. 686 (1899). In 
my note in the ‘Report ’ for 1888 I suggested that it was a hybrid 
of M. viridis with possibly M. rubra, and I still think that may be 
the case, the mint smell strongly predominating ; it is probably 
a fixed hybrid which has been long in cultivation. M. Briquet 
considers M. rub?’a itself to be a hybrid resulting from a cross 
of M. aquatica-arvensis with M. viridis. — G. C. D, M. rubra, Sm. 
I believe. — E. S. Marshall. 
Salicornia herbacea, Linn, var. appressa (Dumort.). South wick, 
Sussex, Sept. 1900. — G. Claridge Druce. 
Ruj/iex acutus, Linn. {R. crispus x obtusifolius). Brackley 
Gorse, Sept. 1900. — G. Claridge Druce. Correct. — E. G. 
Baker. 
Euphorbia Peplis, Linn. Crabby Bay in the Island of Alder- 
ney, 25 August 1902, coll. Cecil P. Hurst. Mr. Hurst favoured 
me with these specimens for the^nembers of the Club. Members 
will please add the Alderney locality and date to my labels. Mr. 
Hurst found the same species on the shell beach at Herm twelve 
days earlier. — Charles Bailey.
