CORRECTION IN NAME. 



The plant which was circulated last year among members of 

 the Watson Botanical Exchange Club under the name Ruhus 

 foliosus, by the Rev. E. F. Linton, from Sprowston, Norfolk, E., 

 is now shewn to be a distinct species, and is described in the 

 Journal of Botany (Vol. xxv., p. 82) under the name Rubus 

 lucejis, Linton. This name, however, is preoccupied by a 

 Himalayan Rubus, and the Norfolk Rubus will be known as 

 R. IcBtus, Linton. 



THE BRITISH LINN^EA. 



The British Branch of Linnsea numbers now rather over 

 twenty members, of whom twelve contributed some 6,000 

 exemplars last autumn. The annual distribution of plants is 

 now going on. Any wishing to join may communicate with the 

 Secretary, Rev. W. R. Linton, Shirley, Derby.-
