cannot name this, nor even feel sure, without seeing more of it, 

 in which of the glandulose groups it must find a place. — W. M. E,. 



R. sp. ? (apparently under dumetorum). Farley Common, 

 Essex, Aug., 1892. — J. T. Powell. I think certainly under 

 dumetorum, W. and N., and very near to var. ferox, Weihe, 

 though differing somewhat in armature and terminal leaflet. A 

 beautiful plant.— W. M. E. 



R. corylifolius, Sm., var. suUustris (Lees). Ashford, N. Devon, 

 July, 1892.— W. H. Painter. Yes.— W. M. E. 



R. corylifolius, Sm., var. Braunton Barrows, N. Devon, July, 

 1892. — W. H. Painter. I well remember seeing this beautiful 

 Corylifolian in masses in the deep sand by E. Taw on Braunton 

 Burrows. It is, I think, good suUustris, the locality being 

 sufiiciently peculiar to account for the slight variation from type 

 in prickles, panicle, and leaf texture. — W. M. E. 



R. corylifolius, Sm., var. Heaton, N. Devon, July, 1892. — 

 W. H. Painter. Two sheets of different plants thus labelled. 

 (1) The stem pieces look nearest to R, seahrosus, P. J. Muell. 

 The panicle is imperfectly developed but may belong to the 

 same. It seems shade grown. (2) Looks like R. cmius X cory- 

 lifolius.— W. M. E. 



R. leucostachys, Sm. ? Flazendale, Thirsk, Yorks., Sept., 1892. 

 — A. B. Hall. R. ccesius, L. A very prickly form, which may 

 perhaps go under var. arvensis, Wallr. {ulmifolius, Bab.) — 

 W. M. E. 



R. Bellardi, Weihe. ? Lane up Dalton Ed., Thirsk, Yorks., 

 Aug., 1892. — A. B. Hall. Mixed pieces; the panicle belonging 

 apparently to R. villicaulis, Koehl., and the stem to R. dumetorum, 

 W. and N.— W. M. E. 



Dryas octopetala, L., var. pilosa, Bab. Cronkley Fell, Yorks., 

 June, 1892. — A. J. Crosfield. It seems impossible to define this 

 as a variety, and according to Mr. N. E. Brown in Eng. Bot. 

 Supp. p. 127. Prof. Babingtonis now of the same opinion. — A.B. 



Poterium muricatum, Spach. ? Clover field, Woodchester, GIos., 

 W., July, 1892. — H. P. Eeader. P, muricatum Ydv. platylophiim, 

 Syme. = P. platylophium, Jord. — A. B.
