elsewhere. Also on rocky waste ground on the hill at

 Baker, who says that this bramble is also abundant at

299.* PyrUS SCandica, Bab. P. latifoUa, Pers ? 



On p. 67 we mentioned a variety of Pyrus Aria which 

 formerly had been known in Leigh Woods, but which 

 we had been unable to rediscover ; nor could we find 

 any specimen. We could not therefore assign it a 

 place in the Flora. However, in June, J886, we were 

 so fortunate as not only to see specimens gathered by 

 Mr. T. B. Flower, but also, & few days afterwards, to 

 come across the large tree from which they had been 

 taken. This, the solitary representative of the species 

 in North Somerset, grows on the rocky verge of Nightin- 

 gale Valley.
