Rubus. The whole of my gatherings have been seen by the 
Rev. H. J. Riddelsdell and his naming accepted. All specimens 
under the same reference number were gathered from one bush 
or group of bushes. — W. C. Barton. 
R. silvciticus Wh. & N. Ref. Nos. 441, 426, 426 b (“per- 
haps.” — H.J.R.), 414 (“ probably.” — H.J.R.), 437 (“in more or 
less probability.” — H.J.R.). South Tawton quarries, N. Devon, 
v.c. 4, Aug. & Sept. 1919. — W. C. Barton. 1 think all are the 
same form, but I do not know the species well. — H.J.R. 
R. liirtifoliiLS Muell. & Wirtg. Nailsea Heath, N. Somerset, 
v.c. 6, July 25, 1918. — J. W. White. I suppose correctly named, 
though I see no note of the colour of the petals, and the panicle 
is very narrow. — H.J.R. 
R. hirtus W. & K , var. rotundifolius Bab. (Ref. No. 429). 
Shady corner in South Tawton quarries, N. Devon, v.c. 4, Aug. 
31, 1919. — W. C. Barton. 
Rotentilla norvegica L. Purwell Field, Hitchin, Herts., v.c. 20, 
Sept. 10, 1919. Sent also to B.E.C., 1919. These plants were at 
least biennial. Two years ago the field, which had been tem- 
porary pasture of ryegrass and lucern, was turned into allotments. 
But a strip was left unploughed for a road, and on this strip the 
plants were found in some abundance. The roots indicated that 
if undisturbed the plants would continue as perennials. [Later] 
All had disappeared in July, 1920. — J. L. Little. Yes; agrees 
with figure in “FI. Dan.” tab. 171.— C.C.L. 
Agrimonia odorata Mill. (1) (Fruits only.) Near Old Park 
Wood, Fishbourne, W. Sussex, v.c. 13, Oct. 8, 1918. With 
A. Eupatoria L., but keeping distinct. — R. J. Burdon and J. E. 
Little. See B.E.C. Report, 1918, 501, where Mr. Little rightly 
remarks that A. Eupatoria is slightly aromatic. But as A. odorata 
is much more strongly scented, this feature may still be helpful 
in determining these plants. — C.E.S. (2) Old Park Farm, 
Bosham, W. Sussex, v.c. 13, Aug. 4, 1919. — R. J. Burdon. 
These plants were gathered within a mile of the station from 
which we obtained the fruits distributed in 1918.— J.E.L. 
Rosa [mollis Sm., (glandular form)]. Roadside, Grey Abbey, 
Co. Down, June 12 and Aug. 1 and 9, 1918. — C. H. Waddell. 
These do not appear to me to be R. mollis Sm., but variations of 
R. tomentosa Sm. of the omissa group, nearest to, though not iden- 
tical with, R. omissa Deseg. — W.B. Not true R. mollis , I believe. 
It agrees much better with Irish specimens named R. omissa , var. 
resinosokles (Crepin) by the Rev. Augustin Ley. — E S.M.
