428 THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF THE BRITISH ISLES. 
already noticed, may be mentioned a useful paper on the ‘ Collec- 
tion and Identification of Roses,’ by the Rev. Augustin Ley and 
Major Wolley-Dod (pp. 247 — 255). A full description of Eu- 
phrasia minima with plate (t. 197a), p. 165, from Devon, by 
W. P. Hiern, F.R.S. Notes on the ‘ Plants of Derbyshire,’ E. 
Drabble (p. 199), of Sutherland (p. 220), and of Somerset, E. S. 
Marshall. ‘ The Nomenclature of the British Melicae,' Dr. C. E. 
Moss (p. 333). Dorset Plants, Rev. E. F. Linton. Two very 
interesting new county records are published in ‘Journ. Bot.’ — 
Saxi/raga aizoides, L., Carnarvon, p. 32 (new to Wales) and 
Selinum Carvifolia^ L., near Mansfield, Notts, (p. 71). 
Other new records of the year include Cerasiium pumilum, 
Curt., and C. tetrandrum, Curt., Berks, Riimex limosus, Thuill., 
Northants, Crataegus oxyacanihoides, Thuill., Selkirk (new to 
Scotland), Festuca heterophylla^ Lam., Peebles, Potamogeton in- 
voluius^ Fryer, P. coloratus, Hornem., and P. angustifolius, Presl., 
for Northants. 
Mr. Pickard has sent a specimen from Yorkshire, which, 
although small and immature, is strongly suggestive of Epilohium 
colli 7 ium, Cm el. 
Engler’s das Pflanzenreich . . . Papaveraceae, by Fried- 
rich Fedde, 21 Dec. 1909. Price Mk. 21.60. This important 
monograph differs in many respects from that on the Carices by 
the ‘ Pfarrer Kiikenthal.’ The ‘ forms ’ of the latter work (to which 
so many of our Carex vars. had been reduced) have no counter- 
part in this, but ‘ sub-vars.’ are given. The colour forms of Papaver 
Rhoeas for instance are termed ‘ vars.’ P. sirigosum^ Boenn., is 
kept as a distinct species, as are P. setigerum DC., P. Roubaei, 
Vig., and P. modestum^ Jord., neither being cited for Britain. 
P. Lecoqii (spelt Lccoquii) and P. collimun, Bogenh., arc reduced 
to vars. of P. dubiu>n, k'edde putting his own name as the authority 
for this grade, but of course wrongly, the reduction being previously 
used by numerous writers. Fedde does not appear to have made 
himself acquainted with British authors, since no notice is taken of 
P. somniferum, var. hispidum, H. C. AVats. ; and Adanson is 
wrongly cited for the genus Glauclum, which dates from Hill, 
‘British Herbal’ of 1756. It is somewhat to be regretted that 
more uniformity should not e.\ist between the various Monographs
