82 FLORA OF THE LAKE DISTRICT. 



340 — 12. Rubus discolor, W. and N. Not seen in the heart 

 of the Lake district about Keswick, Ambleside, Bowness, and 

 Coniston, but plentiful enough on the outskirts, in Furness 

 and about Arnside, Kirkby Lonsdale, Milnthorpe, and Penrith. 

 I have seen a form with laciniated leaves at Ulverstone on 

 the way to Swarthmore, and good var. pubescens, Bab., which 

 connects this with leucostachys, near Arnside Tower. R. thyr- 

 soideus I have never seen within our boundaries. 



340 — 14. Rubus leucostachys, Sm. The commonest form in 

 all the woods and hedges about Arnside, and also common 

 about Milnthorpe, Newton, Newby Bridge, Witherslack, and 

 Grange-over-Sands. Seen also at Coniston, Bowness, Gras- 

 mere, Colwith Force, Cartmel, Ulverstone, Sawrey, in the 

 Vale of Lorton near Brackenthwaite, and in Borrowdale 

 between Seatollar and Seathwaite. 



340 — 17. Rubus Salteri, Bab. 



Var. R. calvatus, Blox. 



W. Hedges at Holme and Burton in Lonsdale, and near 

 Milnthorpe station. Hillside over Bowness and up the Trout- 

 beck valley. A little out of Ambleside on the Kirkstone 

 road. Witherslack Valley between Witherslack Hall and 

 Townend. I find much difficulty in drawing the line between 

 this and some of the forms of rhamnifolius. 



340 — 18. Rubies carpinifolius, Bab. This, which is a plant 

 I do not understand, is given by Professor Babington as 

 occurring near Keswick and in Stock Ghyll. 



340 — 19. Rubus villicaulis, W. and N. I have notes of 

 two plants that probably should range here, one a large coarse 

 form, growing in Borrowdale in hedges north of Rosthwaite, 

 and the other a form with more finely cut leaves between
