Rumex scvigumeus, L. Hort., Oxon. Root from St. Samp- 
son’s, Guernsey, Aug. 1908. This plant originally came from 
Guernsey, where it appears to be frequent, and perhaps a native 
species. I have sent it as a seedling and as fruiting from my 
garden. It is closely allied to R. ?temorosus, Schrad., of which it is 
usually treated as the type ; but it certainly differs in several 
respects besides the leaf-colouration. For topographical purposes 
the advantages of keeping the two plants separate are great, since 
the names are so often used in the wrong sense. According to 
Hieracia standard they are good enough species. — G. Claridge 
Druce. 
Euphorbia Cyparissias, L. Hillside, near Hillsley, W. Glos., 
5th Aug. 1908. — J. W. White. 
Ulmus campesiris, L., in part, var. corniibiense, Loudon, U. 
stricta, Lind. The prevailing elm about Trelossick and Truro, v.-c. 
I, Aug. 1908. — A. B. Jackson. It is difficult to see why this 
should be connected with U. campesiris, L., Sp., PI. and Herb., 
although perhaps equally difficult to find the specific name under 
which it should be put. — G. C. Druce. 
Urtka dioica, L., var. angustifolia, W. and G. Glen Collwng, 
Brecon, at about 850 ft., 24th Sept. 1908. Apparently a very 
distinct variety. — A. Ley. Not good, I believe, even for this slight 
variety : the lower leaves on my specimen at any rate are decidedly 
cordate. — H. J. R. The leaves much too broad for angustijolia , — 
G. C. D. 
Salix fragilis, L., forma. Pond near Quenby, Leicester, v.-c. 
55, loih May, and leaves August 1908. This differs from type in 
the catkins, which are much more compact, and very much more 
downy and erect than is usual in typical S. fragilis. The leaves 
also are more downy. Perhaps it is a hybrid of S. fragilis and 
S. alba, with less of the latter than is found in S. viridis, Fr. — 
A. R. Horwood. 
S. My?-siniies, L., forma proatmbens (Forbes). Near Inchna- 
damph, W. Sutherland, v.-c. 108, 15th July 1908. — W. A. Shool- 
bred. 
Orchis Q) [ref. No. 3240]. Plentiful on a limited area on 
limestone, at Inchnadamph, v.-c. 108, W. Sutherland, 21st July 
1908. Allied to O. macula/a, L. ; but very distinct-looking when 
fresh. Plants more slender, leaves unspotted, or very rarely indeed 
with a few faint ringlike markings. Spikes usually narrow, often 
elongate. Flowers pure white or more often with some rose- 
coloured lines and spots on the labellum, which has three sub-equal
