ort of the Botanical ee nae Club the name which 
I used, i.e. R. stenophyllus ey aly said to be incorrect since 
Schur, it was oak described i apo minor var. stenophyllus. li 
one refers to his Hnumeratio Fier Si Transsilvania, it will be 
found that Schur, while expressing a doubt as to the specific dis- 
tinction of oa pari gives it specific rank (as quoted by the Index 
Kewensis), and it is duly indexed as RA cee stenophyllus. 
Man viet would be content to place under R. Crista -galli 
L., as Haag steneyits Drummond- Finke: borealis, and montt- 
cola ; ; they a r to me to have their analogues in the micro- 
species of Dapkrigs ia.
