bridge, Dartmoor, ‘South Devon, v.-c. 3, 1902, per A. O. Hume and 
W. Barratt. Coll, and Comm. C. C. Vigurs, 1907 and 1908. In 
general appearance this seems much nearer G. sylvaticum and G.

list. — C. C. V. The arrangement in ‘ The British Plant List ’ is 
based on Nyman’s ‘Conspectus.’ In this instance Nyman has 
followed Boissier’s arrangement, in which macyorrhiziim is put in the 
‘ Unguiculata,’ while G. sa^iguincum first in the ‘Batrachia.’ 
'Phe latter doubtless in facies resembles macrorrhizum more closely 
than does sanguineum. — G. C. D.
