in Spec. Plant., was really C. divulsa, Good. The name C. cane- 
sce?is had better be dropped. I call it C. curta, Good., var. 
fallax. W. R. I>. had this in cultivation for many years ; and, 
although increased in size, it has kept its slender habit very well 
indeed. — E. S. M. 
C. Goodenozvii, Gay, var. Ref. No. 3,221. Ditch, near the 
coast, below Porlock, v.-c. 5, S. Somerset, 27th May 1907. A 
remarkably tall form or variety. Mr. Arthur Bennett believes 
it to be C. vulgaris, Fr., var. elatior, Bonder, ‘FI. Hamb.’ 
p. 493 (1551). — Edward S. Marshall. I call this simply C. 
Goodenoivii. — E. F. L. 
C. vulgaris, Fr., var. recta (Fleischer), Kiik., Sgiath Crom, 
Mid Perth, 4th July 1905. — P. Ewing. 
C. tomentosa, L. From Fairford, 12th July 1907, in a gutter 
by the roadside ; and from a new locality, near Whelford, in Kemps- 
ford Parish, 19th July 1907; both E. Gloster. The Fairford plant 
has narrower leaves and a more wiry habit, though it was in as wet a 
place, and in as long grass, as the Whelford plant. — H. J. Riddels- 
DELL. The length and breadth of the leaves of Carices vary so much 
according to situation, in shade or exposure, short turf or long 
herbage, that there is no need to distinguish such variations even as 
forms. — E. F. L. 
C. depauperata, Curt. In the recorded station from near 
Godaiming, Surrey, in good fruit, but at a later date than usual, 
Aug. 1907. — G. Claridge Druce. 
C. sylvatica, Huds. forma, growing very abundantly and luxuri- 
antly in Grass-wood, Grassington, Yorkshire. This past season I 
noticed for the first time that many of the spikes were branched at 
or close to the base. On examining a large number of living 
specimens in various parts of the wood I found at least fifty per 
cent, had branched spikes. — J. Cryer. The compound spikelets, 
which I have seen even more developed, are due, I think, to 
luxuriance. — E. F. L. Lower spikes branched at the base. It does 
not, I think, deserve a special name. — E. S. M. Rightly named. 
The small spikes at the base of the leading one are very peculiar. — 
D. Fry. 
C. aattiformis, Ehrh., forma. Tregair Moor, St. Newlyn East, 
West Cornwall, v.-c. i, 13th July 1907. About half a mile away 
at Trevemper Bridge on slightly brackish land grows what Mr. A. 
Bennett characterises as good typical acutiformis"' ; this he says is 
abnormal. — C. C. Vigurs. For so variable a species this plant is 
fairly typical. — E. F. L. I cannot separate this from the type. — 
E. S. M. Correct.— D. Fry.
