ocrnotes:Anthyllis Vulneraria, L. Near Stouting, E, Kent, 3rd July, 1887. I send a variety of this plant, in which the stem is very hispid with spreading hairs. Dr. Lange names it var. hirsutissima, DC, but as that plant is described as having red flowers, I suppose Dr. Lange would include under that name also the var. Allionii, DC, which differs only in having yellow flowers, and which, strictly, seems to be the name of the plant. This form is certainly not the common one of our chalk hills, which usually has the stem, &c. subglabrous, or with a little adpressed hair. I have met with the variety in one locality in Surrey, as well as about Stouting, in E. Kent, whence I now send examples, and where it seems to be abundant.--W. H. Beeby,
