\ 118 E. CHARLES NELSON As the specimen from Murthly is the only one which includes cones. which Henry certainly studied (see photo in Henry & Flood 1919), it is designated as the lectotype. L. x henrvana Rehd. Like Henry. Rehder cited no specimen in his protologue; he simply made the statement that "plants received from Dunkeld are growing at the (Arnold) Arboretum . . . " In the Arboretum's herbarium there is only one specimen of this plant collected by Rehder before the publication of his description; it is labelled "Larix decidua x leptolepis Arb. (Dunkeld) 6103 Sept. 14, 1917". The accession number 6103 was for "Plants, received from the Marquess of Tullinbardine, LadywelL Dunkeld, Scotland, on 15 December 1910" (annat. S. A. Spongberg, 9 April 1980). Although it does not bear the binomial, it was collected and annotated by Rehder, and it is designated as lectotype. L. x marschlinsii Coaz It has not been possible to trace any type specimen of L. x marschlinsii. It is possible that none was collected and preserved. Specimens cited L. x henryana Rehd. lectotypus: Arb. (Dunkeld) 6103 (ie. cult. Arnold Arboretum ex Bunkeld), 14 Sept. 1917, A. Rehder. A. L. x eurolepis A.

119 Notes and News Long Term Forestry Policy for Britain According to the British Timber Growers Association a longterm forestry policy agreed by all major political parties is now urgently required in Britain. They claim that government inaction is destroying the confidence of private timber growers at a time when imports of timber and timber products are running at £2,754 million per year. The recent report from the Centre for Agricultural Strategy at Reading University urges a planting target of 60,OOOha a year, making Britain 15% self-sufficient by the year 2000. However, present planting rates are well below even this target. In 1979 new planting dropped to 20,OOOha and unless government and politicians underwrite a long-term policy Britain may well fall further behind projected targets, it is claimed. British Timber Growers Association. Massive Loss of Forest Area Emphasises Need to Make the Best Use of Wood "By the year 2000, the world will have lost 320 million hectares of tropical rain forest, an area equivalent to that of Western Europe." This statement was made by Dr. W. E. Hillis of theAustralian CSIR in his keynote address on 'The Efficient Use of the Wood Resource" to the Forest Products Division of the International Union of Forestry Organisations' Conference in Oxford in April. Dr. Hillis commented that the high rate of loss of forest area emphasised the importance of making the fullest use of the available wood, and the need for improved co-operation in research and development if the forests are to continue to provide man with this most versatile of raw materials. He felt that "Conferences such as this playa central role by providing contacts between specialists worldwide and identifying priorities for future research". In Oxford, 170 scientists from 30 countries, spent 7 days in discussions, the major topics being -variations in wood quality and the problems of optimum utilisation -wood processing systems, and the growing importance of the manmaterial-machine interface -the structural use of timber -energy from the forest biomass -the management of technology transfer IUFRO All-Divisions Meeting, Oxford.
