188 27. R. SCABER. 



the R. mutahilis, from Cleves, North Yorkshire, which was 

 so named by M. Genevier. But another specimen gathered 

 at the same place in the succeeding year has no felt on its 

 leaves, and is referred to B. scaher with much confidence. 



1 am not acquainted with the var. (3 verrucosus of Lees 

 (BoL Wm^c. 43), which he says grows "in profusion on 

 Bromsgrove Lickey.... mixed Avith no other bramble." The 

 only specimen which I have from that place is named by 

 Mr Lees R. affinis /? effusus. It does not agree with the 

 description of the var. verrucosus^ and is, I believe, a form 

 of R. Sprengelii (R. Borreri). 



It is not likely that much objection will be raised to the 

 position in the genus which is now assigned to R. scaher. 

 The R. Bahingtonii was usually placed amongst the Radulce, 

 and the small R. scaler never seemed to agree with the 

 Bellardiani. 



Several plants have been erroneously called R. Bahing- 

 tonii : that from Great Cowley Park is R. amjjlificatus ; 

 from Monmouth, is R. Colemanni, noticed above under R. 

 Grahowskii; that from Shrawley wood, Worcestershire {R. 

 longithyrsiger, Lees MS.), is R. pyrariiidalis.
