284 NOTES ox SOME PLANTS OF NORTH-EAST CORNWALL. 



P. (lomestica, L. — Hedges about St. Kew ; hedge between 

 Cakeval, St. Kew, and St. Endellion. 



P. Cerasus, L. — Hedge by an orchard at St. Kew; hedge near 

 St. Mabjm Village. 



Ruhm suherectHs, Anders. — By the ri^ilway Ime and m an 

 adjoining wood between the Tresarret and Helland Bridges, in the 

 Camel Valley. 



B. hirtifolius, Miill. — In a hedge between Amble and the 

 Wadebridge and Camelford Eoad; by the road from Bodmin to 

 Camelford, at Pencarrow. These records add to the Cornwall 

 stations for this Piubus, recorded in ' Journ. Bot., ix., n. s., p. 296. 

 " About Bodmin" might well have been added to the other south- 

 western locality, " near Plymouth," given under this in ' Manual 

 of British Botany,' ed. 8. 



R. villicauUs, W. & N., b. adscitus, Genev. — In the Camel Valley, 

 between Tresarret and Helland Bridges. 



R. umbrosus, Arrh. — Pencarrow. 



R. corylifolius, Sm. — Between Denhams Bridge and Hendi-a, 

 St. Kew. 



R. ccBsins, L. — Egloshayle, in hedges. 



Rosa spinusissima, L. — So frequent in many of the hedges lying 

 between the villages of St. Mabyn, St. Kew, and St. Endellion, as 

 to supply one of the most striking botanical features of the tract ; 

 appearing with naked and also with aciculate peduncles, and in a 

 hedge by a road from Amble to Denhams Bridge with light pink 

 flowers, but of this variety only a few bushes. Near Slades Bridge, 

 a short distance from Egloshayle. 



R. tomeiitosa, Sm. — St. Mabyn ; Camel Valley, between 

 Tresarret and Helland Bridges ; between St. Kew Village and 

 Amble. Two of the thinner-leaved forms near Slades Bridge, 

 Egloshayle ; Pencarrow, by the road from Bodmin to Camelford 

 (R. scabriiiscula, Sm.) ; between St. Endellion Church and Port 

 Isaac. 



R. micrantha, Sm. — Between Tresarret and Helland Bridges ; 

 Pencarrow ; Egloshayle ; about St. Kew ; near St. Endellion, and 

 between the church and Port Isaac. Is not this really a common 

 rose in all the counties along the English Channel ? 



Fi. systyla, Bast. — Hedge between Amble and Denhams Bridge. 

 Probably in many places in the tract. My visit to it was too early 

 in the season for the discrimination of many of the brambles and 

 roses. 



/.. leucochroa, Desv. — Camel Valley, between Tresarret and 

 Helland l^ridges ; hedges about St. Kew. This marked, and 

 throughout Devon and Cornwall probably quite common, rose 

 demands more attention from British botanists than it has hitherto 

 received. 



Mespilus fjermanica, L. — In four spots, three of them close 

 together, in a hedge a little beyond the head of the hill you ascend 

 after passing Denhams Bridge, on the way to St. Kew ; also in 

 three or four places in two exposed hedges between St. Mabyn 

 Village and Tresarret Bridge. In the latter locality one of the
