lished name), and ‘Irish Nat.’ 1903, p. 289; both publications 
are ignored by Williams in ‘ Prod. FI. Brit.’ p. 54, where he writes 
‘ Lappa intermedia, var. Newbouldii, Mihi.’ Williams says of Netu- 
bouldii that the specimens first collected by Newbould at Llan- 
beris “ do not agree with nemorosum as understood by continental 
authors, nor have they been satisfactorily matched with any con- 
tinental form of Z. intermedia. It seems, therefore, reasonable to 
name them after their discoverer.” In my “ List ” I unfortunately 
followed Williams, but raised Newbouldii to a species. This name, 
if Mr. Beeby be correct, must be replaced by A. nemorosum, Lej., 
and Mr. Beeby says A. intermedium, Lange, consists partly of 
A. niajus x minus, and partly of A. minus, var. purpurascens. 
A. piibens, Bab., is at present ambiguous.

Valuable paper on the flora of Shetland, a group of islands whose 
flora has been so assiduously studied by Mr. Beeby (‘ Ann. Scot. 
Nat. Hist.’ pp. no — 117), several new species and varieties of 
Hieracia are described. By the writer's kindness in allowing me 
sight of the MSS. most of these were incorporated in the List of 
British Plants ; the above variety is, however, additional. 
Crepis taraxacifolia X Taraxacum vulgare. Mr. 
Towndrow records this from Malvern Wells (‘Journ. Bot.’ p. 365), 
but as bigeneric hybrids are quite unusual, it may be well to await 
the results of Mr. Towndrow’s promised observations before 
definitely including it in the ‘ List.’ 
1^22 bis. Statice alpina, Poir. Under the name Armeri a 
ALPINA, Wind., Mr. F. N. Williams, in an interesting paper on 
“The High Alpine Flora of Britain” (‘Ann. Scot. Nat. Hist.’ 
p. 248), identifies some thrifts from summit of Ben Lawers (W. 
Gardener, 1842), Snowdon (J. F. Young, 1839), and of Cam Tual 
(H. N. Ridley, 1883), all in the National Herbarium at Cromwell
