R, . Lisnagade, co. Down, July 30, 1898. 



No. 1.^ — -H. W. Lett. "Best placed, I think, as a form or 

 variety under R, Drejeri^ G. Jensen ; nearer perhaps on 

 the Avhole to vars. Leyanus and hibernicus than to the 

 type, especially in the long-pointed leaflets ; in armature 

 going off from all three towards R, cognatus N. E. Br. 

 From that and all Koehlerian forms it may be dis- 

 tinguished by the subsessile leaflets and patent or erect 

 fruit sepals. Usually also the armature seems less 

 conspicuously mixed than in R. Koehleri and its allies.

Potentilla x . Paths in woods near Rugeley, Staffs. 

 9/98. — H. P. Reader. " Only autumnal P. procumhens, 

 Sibth., in my opinion."- — E. S. Marshall. 



Agrimonia odorata^ Mill. Holmwood, Surrey, August, 

 1894.— H. T. MenneU. 



Poterium muricatum (Spach). Cloverfield, Wood- 

 chester, W. Gloucestershire, 8/1898. — H. P. Reader. 

 " Is var. platylophum (Jord). Here, as probably in most 

 cases, sown purposely for fodder. Almost the extreme 

 form of this branch of the species. Leaves very marked, 

 but as in most of the genus not to be relied on for the 

 separation of species. Native in S. Europe and cultivated 

 throughout the more northern countries. A new record 

 for v.c. 34."— S. T. Dunn. 



P. muricatum^ Spach. Croydon, Surrey, July, 1898. 

 — H. T. Mennell. " Presumably cultivated. This is var. 

 stenolophum which connects P. muricatum with P, 

 Sanguisorba. It is difficult to know where to draw the line 

 between the so-called species, P. Sanguisorba, muricatum^ 

 Magnolii, and Verrucosum, the difference between which are 

 matters of degree — in the size of the wdngs and corruga- 

 tions of the fruit — and not convincing even in print." — 

 S. T. Dunn. 



Rosa stglosa, var. systyla (Bast.) — Lane, The Old 

 Hills, nr. Gt. Malvern, Worcestershire, v.c. 37. June 

 1898.— C. Waterfall. " Yes."— W. M. R.
