Sending Smith a 'Chara' allied to 'Chara flexilis' found at Cley, Norfolk, previously sent to [James] Sowerby, and also sending the true 'Chara flexilis' for comparison. Desires Smith's opinion on whether they are distinct species, as he and [Dawson] Turner believe, and suggests amendment to Sowerby's drawing if so. Has found 'Salicornia radicans' and [William] Hooker has found 'Fucus amphibius', both at Cley.
