356 SOME ACCOUNT OF CHESHIRE RUBI. 
in Cheshire at present. (1.) Near Macclesfield, general. (2.) Quite 
local, e. g., tan-yard, Higher Tabley ; more abundant towards Lymon, 
Carrington, Thelwall, and the north.  (3.) General; Weaverham, 
Tarvin, Tarporley. (4.) The prevalent form; Eastham, Hoylake, 
Wallasey, Moston. (7.) Still local in the north of this hundred, but 
occurs at Lower Peover; plentiful near Biley ; Peover, back lane. 
8. R. leucostachys, Sm., B. vestitus, Weihe.—Very fairly general ; 
common round Knutsford. (1.) Observed by the road between 
Stockport and Mottram. (2.) General; Tabley Hill Lane. (4.) Just 
below Heswall hills, in a quarry near the town of Heswall. (7.) Back 
lane, Lower Peover. 
9. R. Salteri, Bab., B. calvatus, Blox.—1 find I use this name to 
include more than Mr. Baker does by it. So, though I suspect this is 
an abundant Cheshire form, I shall, for the present, only record the 
calvatus of Tabley Hill Lane there named on the spot by Mr. Bloxam. 
he plant here bears a strong, markedly flexuous rachis, and is green, 
not white- or grey-felted beneath the leaflets. (2.) About fifty yards 
on Knutsford side of Tabley Hill sandpit. 
. R. ramosus, Blox.—Observed in Tabley Hill Lane, where it is 
m ahuidh, by the original deseriber of this species. I have only 
seen it also in a Plumbley lane towards Arley, some three miles distant 
from the first spot. Both places are in district 2. This form appears 
to me to be allied both to R. calvatus and R. Lindleianus. (2.) Tabley 
Hill Lane; but apparently not more than six or seven bushes. (7.) 
Fairly abundant in a hedge which joins a pathway at Lower Peover 
Heath Green. 
R. — W. and N.—(2.) Ina hedge which meets the 
terpike road een the Grange Farm and the “Smoker Inn,” 
Plumbley ; round phat Tabley, etc.; or, neither place being on Cas- 
sell’s map, say half a mile nearer Northwich than where the Waterless 
Brook crosses the turnpike road. (4.) Observed at Gayton, close 
to the Hall; recorded by me in the * Liverpool Flora’ as R. ampli- 
fieatus, Lees. 
12. R. villicaulis, W. and N.—(7.) A single bush, in a rough 
waste bit by the roadside soon after Lower Peover Heath, towards 
Rudheath. I only added this subspecies to my Cheshire list in Octo- 
ber this year. I had never seen it before in this county. 
13. R. macrophyllus, W., a. umbrosus, Azzh.—R. carpinifolius,
