14th June, 1900. This seems to be quite a different station from 
the one reported by Mr. Hussey, 1886; from what the Rey. W. 
Moyle Rogers tells me, they would be nearly two miles apart. 
my Flora of Bournemouth I followed the Flora of Dorset, charac- 
terizing the species as ‘‘alien?” in the county, but, after seeing 
the plant in situ, I am satisfied that it is native, and it is easy to 
account for its having been overlooked. I send out single specimens 
rather than full sheets, in order to distribute as widely as may be 
these Dorset vouchers.— Linton. 
Rubus Newbouldit Bab. Form with exceptionally acuminate 
leaflets. Burwardsley, Cheshire, 23rd July, 1900. I send this 
, p. 74, under R. macrostachys P. J. M.: ‘* not always 
distinguishable without difficulty from R. Newbouldii.” After seeing 
this plant in preference to R. macrostachys P, J. M., formerly sug- 
gested by me; because, after studying it side by side with your 
perfect knowledge as I hay macrustachys solely from dried 
specimens of British plants for which Dr. Focke has suggested that 
name. These last, so far as judge from dried specimens,

growing plant, in colour and facies, does not in the least recall 
fi. fuscus.—A. H. Wottry-Dop. 
fi. Bucknalli J. W. White. “Near Mordiford, Herefordshire, 
July and August, 1899. The above name was suggested for this 
plant by Rev. W. M. Rogers, after inspecting a large number of 
dried specimens. Mr. Rogers writes to me on the Mordiford plant 
as follows: ‘“ Hardly differing from R. Bucknalli J. W. White 
described as reflexed after flowering, and ‘a fructu laxe reflexis 
(My specimens show no fruit.) In the Mordiford plant they are 
erect in fruit. witho “nat 
panicle leaves which are rather frequent in the former. In stem, 
flowers, outline of panicle, ete., they seem practically identical ; 
but, of the two, your plant seems rather nearer to R. corylifolius.” 
Mr. Rogers adds: ‘*On further comparison of your plant with Mr. 
White's R. Bucknalli, I see that your stem is much less densely 
hairy tl an his, and apparently without the ‘resinous or glan 
exudation’ of which he speaks. Still, they seem too near to make
