PLANT NOTES FOR 19IO, ETC. 
527 
British specimens except in a few instances. Again there seems 
a lack of consistency : under Viola odorata, L., he gives as varieties 
alba^ auct. non Bess.; suhcarnea (Jord.) Pari. 1890; v^r. sordida, 
Zwanz. ; var. siUfurea (Cariot), R. and F. ; var. lilacina (Rossm.), 
Wiesb. ; var. variegata, DC. ; var. hispidula, Freyn { = V. dume- 
torurn, Jord.) ; and var. subodorata (Borb.), Beck. But under V. 
hirla, L. (with which V. calcarea White (sic) is made synonymous) 
he gives 2 sub-species, brevifimbriata, Becker, and longifimbriata 
Becker, the latter having 3 varieties, hirtifolia, pubescentifolia and 
glabrifolia, all of Becker, the last having again 3 sub-varieties. So 
that in one case colour forms are made varieties, in the latter case 
they are not even put as forms although he mentions their 
occurrence. His arrangement of our British Plants is ; — 
I. V. ODORATA, L. (with the vars. already given). 
[2. V, suAVis, M. B. sp. coll. Under this is V. sepincola^ Jord., 
not given as British.] 
5. V. HiRTA, L. Sub-species brevifimbriata^ Becker. 
Stipulae integerrimae vel breviter fimbriatae, disparse ciliatae 
vel glabrae. Eur. med. et bor. 
Sub-species longifimbriata^ Becker. 
Stipulae longius fimbriatae, densius ciliatae interdum etiam 
cum fimbriis. Eur. merid. 
11. V. RUPESTRiS, Schmidt. {V. arenaria^ DC.), not given as 
British. 
12. V. siLVESTRis (Lam.), Reichb. {V. Reichenbachiana^ Jord.). 
Under this are 5 colour forms, and / villosa and /. albido- 
tomcntosa^ one variety only being given, i.e. rotundato- 
crenata from the Faroes. There is also a sub-species 
from the Canaries and Teneriffe— rather out of place in a 
European monograph. For this widely distributed species 
“ Banwell Wood, Loxton (Somerset) ” only is cited for 
Britain. 
He has 6 other species grouped under the spec. coll, from 
Asia, North America, &c. 
13. V. Riviniana, Reichb. 
Under this there is var. nemorosa N. W. M. with f. villosa 
and f. albifiora.
