Derbyshire, 12th August, 1902. A few bushes of this grow in the

with many shining white hairs on the veins; the many fine yellow 
crabs on the rachis; the sepals long-pointed, with red glandular 
hairs and yellow acicles ; the styles, as in Sprengelii, are longer than 
the short stamens and green, Me petals broad and pink. Dr. Foeke 
remarked on its resemblance to his R. cimbricus, 4 this is only in 
the foliage, and in all other othe it is distinct. ogers agrees 
that it is connected with R. Sprengelii, and yet in many features 
different, and suggested a hybrid origin as the explanation. ae

R. radula Weihe. Almond Park, near Shrewsbury, July, 1901, 
and August, 1902.—W. Hunt Painter. ‘A strong form of my 
subsp. anglicanus, frequent in the north, and in its armature one 
step nearer to typical radula than the common South England form 
described in my Handbook of British Rubi, p.63. Several sheets sent 
with anglicanus from Almond Park by Mr. Painter are R. rosaceus

in Carey Woods, Herefordshire, and in a copse in Brockhampton 
parish. It was mentioned in Journal Hoteny 1896, p. 217, as 
‘*‘R. radula var. anglicanus Rogers is w placed Me ainlg

ny foliosus Wh. & N. Rough ground between Bow Brickhill and 
Woburn Sands railway station, Buckinghamshire, 15th August, 
1902. A form of stiff soil. In its stout greenish stem, thick leaves, 
and white petals nearer to the typical German plant than is usual 
with us, but also somewhat recalling forms of R. scaber. Whole 
plant unusually greyish, and leaves ‘italy 5-nate. Quite like 
R. foliosus and R. saltuwn in the conspicuously shining upper sur- 
face of leaves (in living plant), and in the long narrow flexuose 
drooping panicle with strongly reflexed sepals. —W. Moyte Rocers.
