Caithness. D. Lillie. (2) “The slender stems seem to have 
entire leaves and the few stout stems with large leaves have 
the serratures nearly obsolete. In Whitehead’s herbarium is a 
Lancs, coast specimen with entire leaves labelled v. elatum. (3) 
This must be var. elatum in the narrower sense and not M. 
Sdigeri (though I saw a stem like the latter). Intermixed is 
Ain. subglobosum ( Af. punctatum var. elatum being a possibility). 
In some of the packets a single young seta of the latter, but one 
seta did not encourage an inquiry into the inflorescence. There 
are not a few other more or less attenuated intruders suggesting a 
boggy habitat and a struggle for existence ; had these been picked 
out the unfortunate referees would have been saved the risk of 
yielding to the temptation to the use of unparliamentary language.” 
—J. Barker. “(2 and 3). —I am inclined to refer both of these to a 
poor form of the var. datum. They differ from one another in the 
serratures of the leaves ; and they have not the proper habit of 
var. elatum. 1 am not sure that it would not be more accurate to 
describe Mr. Wheldon’s plant as labelled, i.e ., ‘ approaching the 
var. elatum ’ and the Watten plant as ‘a poor form of var. elatum 
or approaching it.’ ”—H. N. Dixon.
