REPORT FOR 1880. 
29 
of Reuter is apparently only a slight form of annuus , caused, perhaps, 
by the seeds germinating in the autumn rather than the spring. — 
C. C. Babington. 
Erodium cicutarium , Herit.,var. Flowers pale pink, 4 lines 
diameter, petals without any spots, beak of fruit only ^-^5 in. long 
when fully grown, leaflets more deeply cut, . with smaller segments 
than usual (nearly pinnate, with simple linear-lanceolate divisions). 
Coast sand-hills, north of Deal, September, 1880. — J. G. Baker. 
I believe E. pilosum , Bor. — C. C. Babington. I recollect noticing 
this plant at Deal in 1863, but as I was unable to identify it 
with any of Jordan’s splits, I did not name it as a variety. — J. T. 
Boswell. 
Trifolium pra tense, L. var. sylvestre. Roadside, Stonton Wyville, 
Leicestershire, August, 1880. — F. T. Mott. Also from Epsom 
Downs, Surrey, 18th September, 1880. — H. and J. Groves. Right; 
but that from old pastures, Warwick (H. Bromwich), is, I think, var. 
a sativum. — J. T. Boswell. 
Rubus Leesii , Bab. Woodloes, Warwickshire. — R. L. Baker 
and H. Bromwich. This is the very curious and interesting form 
which Mr. Bromwich sent last year. It is the plant referred to in my 
last published notes. It must be joined to Idceus. — C. C. Babington. 
Rubus suberectus , Anders. Chandler’s Whin, near York. — G. 
Webster. I think plicatus ; if a prostrate or arching plant, it may 
be the fastigiatus of me formerly, but I think not of Rubi Germ, or 
Genevier. I should like to know if this was an arching plant ; there 
is much difficulty about these fastigiate forms. — C. C. Babington. 
Rubus suberectus , Anders. Hatton, near Warwick, September, 
1880. — R. L. Baker. I name it Lindleianus. — C. C. Babington. 
Rubus fissus, Lindl. (Bab. !). South Burn of Quoys, Hoy, Orkney, 
August, 1880. — J. T. Boswell. 
Rubus affinis , W. and N. Chandler’s Whin, near York. — G. 
Webster. Correct. — C. C. Babington. 
Rubus Lindleianus, Lees, Wavertree, S.W. Lancs. — J. Harbord 
Lewis. Correct. — C. C. Babington. 
Rubus rhamnifolius, W. and N., extreme. Wimbledon Common, 
Surrey, August, 1880. — J. G. Baker. Apparently the same as a 
Yorkshire specimen named rhamnifolius microphyllus for Mr. Bagnall 
by Baker. I place it provisionally with carpinifoliits.— C. C. 
Babington. 
Rubus imbricatus, Hort. Great Doward, Herefordshire, October, 
1878 . — Augustin Ley. This is very near indeed to the original 
imbricatus , if not identical with it. — C. C. Babington. 
Rubus imbricatus , Hort. Trusham, S. Devon, September, 1880. 
Professor Babington writes: — “Your imbricatus is very near indeed 
to the original plant. I think that there can be no doubt of their 
specific identity.” It is one of our commonest brambles at Trusham. 
W. Moyle Rogers. 
Rubus ramosus, Blox. Trusham, S. Devon, September, 1880. 
On “ Black Lea,” a furzy and rocky hillside, rather sparingly. 
Corresponds exactly with the Plymouth ramosus , though not with 
Mr. Bagnall’s Warwickshire plant. — W. Moyle Rogers. I presume 
to be correct, but the specimens are not good. — C. C. Babington.
