The following records have been supplied by Mr. Towndrow, 
from the “ Journal of Botany ” :— 
Juncus diffusus. Newland Common, Malvern. Vol. XVII., 1879, p. 278. 
First record. First gathered by the late Rev. J. H. Thompson at 
North Malvern, October 29th, 1849, and in various places about 
Worcester, 1850, 1851. 
Barbarea stricta. Near the Severn, at Worcester, June, 1880. Vol. 
XVIII., p. 874. First record. 
Ranunculus Drouetii. Leigh Sinton, near Malvern. Vol. XXI., 1883, 
p. 214, but previously sent by Mr. Bagnall to Mr. Watson and 
recorded by him in “ Topographical Botany, ” second edition, 1883. 
As the preface to the latter is dated May, and Mr. Towndrow’s plant 
was gathered later, Mr. Bagnall’s is probably the first record. 
Carex muricata var. pseudo-divulsa. Malvern Link. Vol. XXI., p. 246, 
1883. First record. [In Vol. XXII., pp. 38-41, is a paper by the 
writer containing the omissions of Worcestershire plants in the 
second edition of Watson’s “ Top. Botany.” Most of these may be 
found in the reports of the Bot. Record Club. See “Mid. Nat.,” 
Nov., 1892, Vol. XV., page 259.] I must, however, notice
