R. silvaticus, W. and N. Hedge near Saintfield, 

 Co. Down, August, 1903. — C. H. Waddell. Yes ; a 

 strong form of R. silvaticus, Wh. and N., with panicle 

 prickles less conspicuously acicular than type. — W.M.R. 



R. silvaticus, W. and N. Lower Wych, Cheshire, 

 5th August, 1903.— A, H. Wolley-Dod. Yes.— W.M.R. 



R. villicaulis var. Selmeri, Lindeb. Roadside between 

 Tanderagea and Scarva, Co. Armagh, August, 1903. — 

 W. Lett. Certainly not R. Selmeri; but apparently 

 mixed pieces. Stems seems to be all good R. Schlech- 

 tendalii, Weihe, and the panicles R. Lindleianus. — 

 W.M.R. 



R, macrophyllus v. Schlechtendalit, Weihe. Aghaderg, 

 Co. Down, August, 1903. — W. Lett. I think a strongly 

 aciculate form of R. macrophylloides, Genev., itself a 

 glandular and aciculate var. or form of Schlechtendalii, 

 New record for Co. Down. — W.M.R. 



R. rhamnifolius, W. and N. Aghaderg, Co. Down, 

 broad road near McKain's, 24th August, 1903. — W. Lett. 

 R. danicus, Focke, but material too imperfect to be 

 characteristic. — W.M.R. 



Ruhus . Lispagonnell, at broad road, 



Co. Down, 13th July, 1903. — W. Lett. For positive 

 determination maturer specimens are most desirable. At 

 first sight remarkably like R. iricus, but differing from 

 type in being considerably glandular and aciculate (stem 

 and panicle), in the prickles more scattered and unequal, 

 and the panicle apparently less cylindrical above. The 

 leaflets also are narrower and more incised. The whole 

 plant, however, is so glandular and aciculate as to 

 suggest the question whether it will not have to go to the 

 Egregii, next to R. adenanthus, as new to the British Isles 

 at least. A good series in flower and fruit, and with 

 mature stem pieces, would make a decision possible. 



R. pyramidalis, Kalt. Laxey, Isle of Man, 

 13th August, 1903. — C. H. Waddell. Yes; a small but 

 characteristic form.
