REPORT FOR 1909. 
443 
two specimens have the leaves somewhat ciliate, and are thus not 
glabrous ; I think that I can also detect one or two minute stalked 
glands. They appear to me to be starved and rather drawn-out 
6". Reuteri ; restricted S. apetala seems to be always much more 
glandular, with larger flowers. — Edward S. Marshall. Sepals 
seem right ; material poor but I think correctly named. — C. E. 
Salmon. 
Manila fontana, L., Herb, and Spec. Plant. M. lamprosperma, 
Chamisso. Near Pandy Mill, Carnarvonshire, v.-c. 49, June, 1909. 
Some specimens come under var. boreo-rivulai'is (Lindb.), other are 
the drier land form, but in all the seeds are reticulate and shiny, not 
dull-black and sharply tubercled as is the case in M. verna, Necker, 
which is the common form of southern England. See ‘ Rep.’ for 
1908, p. 331 ip'- reticulate" should be tuberculate" in line 6 from 
bottom) as the character of M. verna^ Necker. — G. Claridge 
Druce. 
Tilia platyphyllos, Scop. Wenlock Edge, near Longville, 
Salop, v.-c. 40, July 23, and September 2, 1909. See ‘Journal of 
Botany,’ 1909, p. 356. The situation of the tree was near the top 
of a steep wooded bank, where it was quite unlikely to have been 
planted. A second tree of this species was found in a similar 
situation at about two miles distance, near Presthope. The fruits 
appear very hairy for this species, and I regret that they are not 
mature enough to shew the specific characters plainly. — Augustin 
Ley. Apparently right, if the foliage may be made the test : the 
characteristic five-angled fruit is not, however, developed even in 
the September specimens. — H. J. Riddelsdell. 
E radium cicutarium, L’Herit, var. glandulosum, Bosch. Broad 
Sands, S. Devon, v.-c. 3, Aug. 23, 1909, No. 1845. Named for me 
by Mr. Marshall. A very frequent form in sandy turf by the shore. 
It is always prostrate and much more grey-green than the type, 
besides being glandular and having much closer, more obtuse pinnae 
and lobes. Its flowers seem to be almost as frequently rose as they 
are wliite. The petals are unspotted. It is not the same, I think, 
as my No. 1351 garden grown in 1905, from seed of a Shoebury- 
ness plant and distributed through this Club, but I am growing the 
two side by side for comparison. — A. H. Wolley-Dod. I think that 
this comes under the variety as understood in Britian. — E. S. 
Marshall. Agreeing very well with specimens so named, from 
Deal, and from various parts of the Glamorgan coast. The 
glandular and jointed hairs which supply the form with its name 
are numerous and are mingled with the ordinary eglandular hairs 
of the species. — H. J. Riddelsdell.
