REPORT FOR I909. 
485 
“ I have named it in E. B. plate L. alpinum^ var. decipiens P 
we may safely identify the plant from Gloueestershire (which was 
found by Father Reader), and which I sent to Dr. Syme with the 
plate. Mr. Wilson’s specimens are to be referred to this variety. — 
G. C. Druce. Excellent Z. alpinum, L., var. decipiens, Syme; I 
have exactly the same plant from the Cairngorms. It was formerly 
mistaken for Z. coinplanatuin , L. In this extreme form it is usually 
barren, according to my experience. — E. S. Marshall. 
Chara fragilis, Desv., var. verrucosa, Itz. In the river at Toome 
Bridge, especially in shallow water near the weir, in great quantity, 
and singularly constant in character, Co. Antrim and Londonderry. 
Named for me by Messrs. Groves, Aug., 1909. — G. C. Druce. 
Right, I believe. This name was substituted for var. delicatula, 
Braun in ‘ Lond. Cat.’ ed. 10 ; but Messrs. Groves retained the 
name delicatula for some of our Sutherland gatherings of 1908, so 
that the two names do not appear to be quite synonymous. — E. S. 
Marshall.
