a of Leicestershire issued by the Leicester Literary and Philo- 
mepackl Society in 1886, it seems desirable to bring together in

should be brought out at an early date, giving a more complete 
account of plant stato in Leicestershire than has yet been

noted, 44 of ane i ing Rubi. In a paper respecting the botany 
of the county, read befor the Literary and Philosophical. Society 
in 1900, Rev. T. A. Preston mentions 65 additional species and 
varieties, 40 casuals, nik 22 Rubi, or a total of 127. Since then 
there have been several interesting additions, especially in the 
collections _ its kind. It comprises about 10,000 s

pestris, S. viscosus, Vaccinium Papatacises, Asarum europeun, gener 
geton Zizi, P. undulatus var. Coo pert (P. perfoliatus x crispus), O 
banche elatior, and Alopecurus hiybridus, It will be as well to ieaition 
here that the rotdide | in the Flora of Ranunculus confusus, Fumaria 
densiflora, Vicia gracilis, Galium “secre es at intermedium, and 
Scirpus carinatus have since proved to b ors,
