AppITIONS AND CORRECTIONS. 
n this “Key” I have thought it best to make no attempt to 
deal exbastivel with county distribution. I have merely, in the 
case of some of the less-known forms, given within brackets the 
names of fash counties as I iee for them at the time of writing. 
ing so as a rule. 
op 111 189). Rh. Cariensis Rip. & Genev.—I have now reason 
to believe the toni referred to under this name to be rather widely 
spread in N. Devon. I have also seen it (ora very nearly allied 
form) in one Dors. locality; but a closer acquaintance with the 
Somers. plant. men _ een it to be different. 
112. R. Dumnoniensis Bab. — The lts., I find, are not un- 
frequently quite green one oaly thinly hairy beneath. 
.118. RB. nemoralis - Muell.—There is reason to fear that 
aggregate, ‘f. wmbrosus Arrh.” Dr. Focke has recently placed 
nemoralis a8 a subordinate form nearly allied to R. macrophyllus, 
and described it as having ‘Its. green on both sides, . . . . inflores- 
cence drawn out, with many flowered branches, large bracts, and 
falcate prickles; fl. handsome, pink.” This will hardly suit our 
aggregate. Probably our best course at present would be to 
aside the names nemoralis and wmbrosus, and make dumosus our
