REPORT FOR 1907.

noted this form in European collections, and I do not think it 
bears a varietal name. — J. C. Melvill. A small form, which (as 
far as I can make out) is apetalous. I know of no definite name 
for it. — E. S. M. 
• Arenaria norvegica. Gunner. At about 230 feet above sea level 
near Inchnadamph, W. Sutherland, July 1907. Very rare. — 
G. Claridge Druce. 
Speri^ula arve 77 sis, L., var. nana., Linton. This plant I had 
described as var. praecox, and as such have it included in my 
‘British Plants,’ which was printed off in July of 1907, but not yet 
published, and the name therefore must give way to Mr. Linton’s 
name nana, which has been published in ‘ Journ. Bot.’ The chief 
points of interest are its small size, its very early flowering, Jan. 
to March, and its habitat, which is not cornfields, but aboriginal 
turf-ledges on sea-cliffs, and also grassy commons. Mr. Marquand, 
in the ‘ Flora of Guernsey,’ long ago drew attention to it. As I have 
said, its point of interest is in its growing in natural turf, this proving 
it to be native of the Channel Isles, and not to have been brought 
in with cornfield weeds. The seeds are papillose, and the plant 
has the habit of Sabina procumbens. March 1907. — G. Claridge 
Druce. S. arvensis, L., var. nana, Linton (‘Journ. Bot.,’ 1907, 
p. 380). — E. F. L. This is the small plant recently described in 
‘Journal of Botany’ as var. nana, Linton. — E. S. M. 
Tilia cordata, Mill. Swithland Wood, 7th Aug. 1907. Hitherto 
this has been recorded under parvifolia, but at nearly all the stations 
it is known to have been planted, so that the indigeneity of Tilia 
cordata in Leicestershire has been locally questioned. Professor 
A. G. Tansley and Dr. Moss, who were here with the British 
Association, state that, “ judging from the ground flora Tilia cordata 
is undoubtedly indigenous at Swithland.” — W. Bell. This differs 
from all the other Limes in having an erect, not drooping inflores- 
cence, a character not mentioned in the books. — A. B. Jackson. 
Geranium Robertianwn, L., var. modestum (Jord.), on shingle, 
Kingsdown, near Walmer, E. Kent, v.-c. 15 ; 9th July 1907. — 
F. L. Foord-Kelcey. This plant occurs frequently on the southern 
coasts of England, and I have seen it in Co. Kerry. It is usually 
called var. picrpureum (Vill.); but it is, perhaps, too near to var. 
modestum (Jord.) to deserve separate rank. Rev. R. P. Murray 
once told me that he regarded the two as identical. — E. S. M. 
Erodium ciciitarium, L’H^rit, var. glandulosum, Bosch. Deal 
Sandhills, E. Kent, v.-c. 15, 2 July 1907.— F. L. Foord-Kelcev. 
Yes ; originally recorded from this station, the specimens having
