R. rudis, W. and N. Glen Gorse, Leicestershire, 

 August, 1903. — W. Bell and A. B. Jackson. Yes. — 

 W.M.R. 



R. oigoclados var. Newbouldii, Bab. Ballintaggart, 

 Co. Down, 20th July, 1903. — W. Lett. Probably enough 

 a form of Newbouldii, but the specimens are too imperfect 

 for satisfactory determination. — W.M.R. 



Rtibus — . Caskum, Co. Down, 15th August, 



1903. — W- Lett. SQems to he R. Newbouldii.— W M.K. 



R. Griffithianiis, Rogers. Near Blackfardby, Derby- 

 shire, nth August, 1903. — T. E. Routh. Yes, new 

 record for Derbyshire. — W.M.R. 



R. inutabilis, Genev. Aghaderg, Co. Down, 

 3rd August, 1903. — W. Lett. No doubt from the same 

 thicket to which Canon Lett took me in 1901, about 

 which in /. of B. for that year I wrote as follows : One 

 clump, m shade and so hardly typical, making some 

 approach towards var. nemorosus, Genev. An imperfect 

 specimen from this thicket was wrongly named by me 

 R. adornatus, P. J. Muell, for the Watson Botanical 

 Exchange Club (see Report 1900-01, p. 17)." These 

 1903 specimens are less strongly armed than the earlier 

 ones, but still, on the whole, seem to go best to the very 

 aggregate R. mutabilis. — W.M.R. 



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

 25th August, 1903. — W. Lett. Much too scrappy for 

 certainty. — W. VI .R. 



R. infecundus, Rogers. Near Calte, Derbyshire, 

 August, 1903. — T. E. Routh. And Smisby, Derbyshire, 

 July, 1903. — W. Bell. Both sets very characteristic. — 

 W.M.R. 



Ruhus . Wood below Wharncliffe Crags, 



S.W. Yorks, 3rd September, 1903. — H. S. Thompson. 

 I am quite unable to name this. The stems are extra- 

 ordinarily weak for such fusco-ater like panicles. Perhaps 

 Mr. Thompson may be able to get fuller material with 

 mature stems in a more favourable season than that of 

 1903.— W.M.R.
