Rubus Kxhhri^ Weihe and N. “A small variety oiR. Koehleri^ W. 
and N., I suppose.” — Dr. Focke. Shirley, Derbyshire, 28th July, 
1887. — W, R. Linton. New County record. 
R. Koehleri^ Weihe; form. “A form of R. Koehleri^ Weihe, var. a. 
verusP — T. R. Archer Briggs. Harrow Weald Common, Middlesex, 
22nd July, 1885. — W. R. Linton. 
R. septorum^ Miill. Named by Dr. Focke. Bradley Wood, Ash- 
bourne, Derbyshire, 13th July, 1887. — W. H. Purchas. New 
County record. 
R. mutahilis. Genev. Border of a field, Fursdon, Egg Buckland, 
S. Devon, 23rd August, 1887. — T, R. Archer Briggs. 
R. iniitahilis^ Genev. “ Bodsey, near Ramsey, Hunts., 7th 
October, 1886. — Alfred Fryer. Comm. W. R. Linton.” I send 
this in under the name which was on Mr. Fryer’s label. Though I 
appear to have gathered true miitabilis there in 1885 (see Report), 
Mr. Fryer, whom I directed to the spot, does not seem to have hit 
•upon the same plant (see Report, 1886). It may be that R. mutabilis 
is confined to a bush or two there. — W. R. Linton. Also from 
Riggs’ Wood, Sellack, Hereford, i6th July, 1887, queried. — Augustin 
Ley. (W certifloriis^ Muell. fide Babington.) “The two plants so 
labelled are most certainly not of the same species. That collected 
in Hunts, by Mr. Fryer is nearer the DeYon mutabilis than the other 
from Riggs’ Wood, Herefordshire, collected by the Rev. A. Ley. The 
latter, I consider R. Radiila^ Weihe. The former differs considerably 
from the Plymouth R. mutabilis, which, through the occurrence of a 
specimen from M. Genevier in Mr. J. G. Baker’s collection of foreign 
Rubi, I was able to so name many years ago. I have since had the 
opportunity of learning that M. Genevier himself named a specimen 
of mine from Tamuton Foliott, R. mutabilis v. nemorosus (vide 
‘Notes on British Rubi, by Babington,’ in Jour. Bot, 1886). I 
should not myself have ventured to name the plant from Bodsey, 
Hunts, R. mutabilis, Genev.” — T. R. Archer Briggs. 
R. mutabilis, Gen. Woods, Aconbury, 6th September, 1887. 
I send this under the name which I first gave it, being pretty certain, 
however, that the name is not correct. I cannot give a name. — 
Augustin Ley. 
R. foliosus, Weihe. Ansley Coalfield, Warwickshire, 20th 
August, 1887. This locality was marked on my ordnance maps by 
the ReY. A. Bloxam. It is that locality recorded in the 3rd Edition 
of English Botany, under the name of Annesley Coalfield, and by 
Prof Babington, in his notes on Rubi, under the name of Bunnesley 
Coalfield. This plant, in the above locality, and in and about the 
Hartshill stone quarries, forms a special feature in the flora. It also 
occurs in the Hartshill Hayes, and near Moncetter, all of which 
stations are in the basin of the river Anker, and on the coal measures 
of Warwickshire ; but I have never found it in any other part ot this 
county. It appears to me to differ materially from the Devonshire 
plant. — J. E. Bagnall. 
R. foliosus, Weihe., var. R. at?'0-rube?is, Wirtg., Blox. Near 
Solihull, Warwickshire, August, 1887. The plant from this locali’)
