Summary:

Sending a Lichen resembling 'Lichen articulatus' from Exmouth warren, Devon, some observations. Remarks on classification of 'Agrostis' and 'Milium' following Smith's defintion of 'Agrostis' in "Flora Britannica", suggests that 'Milium lendigerum' should be placed after 'Agrostis setacea', with example terms of description. Alludes to a possible circumstance with 'Panicum dactylon' that may justify Jussieu's arrangement of 'Panicum'. "Flora Britannica" clarified confusion caused by [William] Withering of 'Festuca rubra'.
