ocrnotes:	Potamogetonffuitans, Roth. Cultivated plant from Hunts., Co. 31, 28th July, 1887. The poor condition of the plant sent is due to none having been gathered until all hope of obtaining fruit was gone. Some were picked up in a withered state after the weed-cutters, and the others were gathered from a rapidly drying up pond. After this pond became quite dry the already formed foliaged branches of P. fluitans died away, and the surface of the mud soon became studded
Filing note:	BEC Report 1887
