R. pubescens, W. and N. High Beech : Essex. 23rd August, 

 1890.— J. T. Powell. R. leucostachys, I think— W. M. R. 



R. rusticanus, Merc? High Beech, Essex, August 13th, 

 i8go. — J. T. Powell. I su-spect of hybrid origin — ruslicanus x 

 pyramidalis ? Certainly not I'usticanus, Merc. — W. M. R. 



R. danicusy Focke. Norton-in-the-Moors, Staffs., 7th August, 

 1890. — W. H. Painter. Mr. Painter may be right in calling 

 this plant R. danicus, Focke, but it seems to differ con- 

 siderably from two sheets of that species given me by Dr. Focke 

 himself. They reminded me of 7i. Schlechiendnlii, whereas this 

 looks as if it should come in between villicaiilis and leucostachys. 

 — W. M. R. 



R. calva/us, Blox. ? Hagger Road, Walthamstow, Essex., 

 27th August, 1890. — J- T. Powell. R. macrophyllus — W. and N., 

 I believe.— W. M. R. 



i2. calvaius, Blox. Near Bangor, North Wales, August, 

 i8qo. — J. Griffith. Just the plant so common about Bourne- 

 mouth referred to as R. viLlicaulis, Koehl. R. calvatus, Blox., 

 in Dr. Focke's paper J. of B., 1890., p. 129. — W. M. R. 



jR. carpinifoliiis, W. and N. Rudyard, Staffs., 7th September, 

 1890.— W. H. Painter. Yes.— W. M. R. 



R, vilIicauHs, Koehl. } Beyond Robin Hood, Epping Road. 

 23rd August, 1890. — J. T. Powell. R. pyramidalis^ Kalt. — 

 W. M. R. 



R. a7?iplificatus, Lees. Near Wake Arms, Epping Forest, 13th 

 August, 1890. — J. T. Powell, "fid. Prof. Babington." 



R. Sprengelii^ Weihe, var. Borreri, Bell-Salt. Oxton Heath, 

 Cheshire, 23rd August, i 890. — A.E. Lomax. I think R. Sprenge/ii, 

 Weihe, but a curious form, with leaflets narrower and much more 

 hairy than in type, and panicle more prickly, more leafy, and 

 with ascending composite branches. — W. M. R. 



R. rosaceus, W. and N. High Beech, Essex, 23rd August, 

 1890. — J. T. Powell. This handsome plant seems just inter- 

 mediate between R. echinatus (Lindl.) and R. rosaceus (W. and N.), 

 but with mature stems very different from both. — W. M R. 



R. rosaceus^ W. and N. } High Beech, Essex, ist, September, 

 1890. — J. T. Powell. Under it. echinatus, Lindl., I think. A 

 remarkable and very beautiful var. — W. M. R.
