272 40. E. CORYLIFOLIUS. 



If the specimen had any felt on its leaves I should refer it 

 with certainty to R. corylifolius; but the underside of the 

 leaves is very hairy on the veins and pale green in colour. 

 Nevertheless, in my opinion, it is a feltless form of R. 

 corylifolius. It seems to connect R. tuherculatus (Bab.) 

 with R. corylifolius. As far as the single specimen will 

 show, the barren stem is that of R. tuherculatus, but the 

 panicle more resembles that of R. corylifolius. Can it be 

 the R. Holandrei of Miiller and of Chaboisseau {Etude du 

 Rub. 29), to which the latter author refers the R. Wahlhergii 

 of Godron and Boreau, the R. jMcatus of Holandre "? 



Mr J. G. Baker, on the authority of specimens received 

 from Wii'tgen and Genevier, refers the following species of 

 Miiller to R. corylifolius : viz. 



K. discriminatus, E,. permiscibilis, 



K. malacophyllus, R. ambiferius, 



K. leucopliEeus, K. dubiosus; 



and also all the specimens received by him from Silesia 

 as R. dumetorum, as well as the R. dumetorum of Wirtgen 

 and the R. 'patens of Mercier.
