long, and with smooth margins, the panicle somewhat diffuse, and 
the pedicels divergent. The plant is from 20-35 ^tm. high. It is 
quite a pretty form and does not blacken in drying so much as 
the type. It grows in very marshy ground with a considerable layer 
of vegetable humus, on the Oxford clay. It may be worth while 
separating it from the type by the above characters as forma angusti- 
folia. — G. Claridge Druce. Leaves mostly six in a whorl, scabrid- 
ciliate ; stems scabrid. A weak state of Withermgii, I think. — 
Edward S. Marshall. 
Galium paluslre, L., var. [ref. No. 2922J. Hurst, Berks, June 
1910. This plant again is not G. Witheringii, Sra.,on account of the 
diffuse panicles and smoooth stem, characters also which take it 
away from G. debile or constrict urn. Neither is it identical with 
6201. We may call it var. serrulatum, mihi. Plant slender, 30- 
40 ctm. Leaves small 5-8 mm. long (5-6 in whorl), narrowly 
lanceolate, margin minutely serrulate^ panicle diffuse, pedicels 
divergent. — G. Claridge Druce. Neither typical palustre nor 
good Witherifigii, but about lialf-way between the two. — Edward S. 
Marshall. 
Asperula taurina, L. Banks of the Ettrick near Selkirk,

Asperula taurina^ Linn. [ref. No. 41]. Wood near Abercorn, 
Linlithgow, v.-c. 84. May 28, 1910. — McTaggart Cowan, jun. 
Bidens cernua, Linn., var. radiata (DC). Swamp in field be- 
tween Mickle Trafford Station and Plemstall Church, near Chester, 
v.-c. 58, Sept. 29, 1910. — Charles Waterfall. 
Matricaria suaveolens^ Bueh. Waste ground, Pentre, N. Corn- 
wall, August 1910. — H. E. Fox. 
Artemisia Stelleriana, Bess. Sandy shore, Mount’s Bay, W. 
Cornwall, August 1910. — H. E. Fox. 
Senecio vulgaris^ L., var. radiatus, Koch. Sand dunes, Fresh- 
field, v.-c. 59 S. Lancs., May i, 1910. — W. G. Travis. Correct. 
The specimens are rather small, but otherwise quite typical. I have 
on several occasions seen the plant in this locality, where it is quite 
indigenous. — C. E. Moss. No doubt correctly named, but de- 
pauperate. Also, I believe, coming near to erectus. Neither of 
these could be placed under lanuginosus, which is based on 
the very hairy radiate type of the Channel Islands. — A. H 
Trow. I once found this dwarf state of the variety on coast 
cliffs near Bigbury, S. Devon, undoubtedly native. — Edward S. 
Marshall.
