THE CRYPTOGAMIC FLORA OF KENT. 209 



(a synonym placed under R. coryUf'oUufi y. purpureus in my ' Rubi') ; 

 and they are probably of the same gathering as those which Mr. 

 Warren saw at Kew, and in Mr. Bloxam's collection (' J. of B.,' 

 viii. 172). I see no reason to doubt their being correctly placed in 

 my ' Eubi,' and that Pi. dumetorum var. concmnus is the same as my 

 R. corylifolius y. purpureus. 



23. E. DUiiETORUM var. intensus and var. ferox. — Mr. Bloxam 

 has issued specimens under these names in his " Set." I am 

 inclined to consider them as belonging to the same sx3ecies. They 

 do not seem to me to agree with Mr. Warren's description of his 

 var. intensus ; but if the former of them is really var. intensus his 

 idea of its being the Fi. horref actus, Miill., is fully confirmed; that 

 is if w^e may consider the specimens so-named by Genevier, and 

 distributed by Baker, as correct. Dr. Focke does not notice 

 R. horrefactus, and therefore we are deprived of his valuable helj). 

 Mr. AVarren also refers to plants from Cadeby, in Leicestershire, 

 distributed by Mr. Bloxam under the name of R. diver sifolius 

 (Lindl.), as being his var. intensus. I have one of those specimens 

 before me, and am more inclined to refer it to the var. diver sifolius 

 of Mr. Warren's paper than to his var. intensus. It is, therefore, 

 my opinion that R. diversifolius, Lindl., includes the forms men- 

 tioned by Mr. Warren as R. dumetorum 5. diversifolius and f. inteyisus, 

 and that R. horrefactus, Miill., is the same plant. The nsime ferox, 

 given by Mr. WaiTen, 1869, but declared by him to be wrong in 

 1870, ought not to have been now revived. He says (' J. of B.,' 

 viii. 175) that the R. dumetorum ysly. ferox of the 'Rubi German' 

 is quite different from our R. diversifolius, Lindl., and, therefore, I 

 may add, from the plants now under consideration.
