REPORT FOR 1897. 
545 
R. Babingtonii , Bell-Salt. The Budletts Common, and from the 
Rocks Wood, near Uckfield, East Sussex, July and September 1897. 
The latter specimens, the Rev. W. M. Rogers remarks, are undoubtedly 
Babingtonii , though not strikingly characteristic. — E. H. Farr. 
“The Budletts Common plant is typical.” — W. M. Rogers. 
R. Babingtonii, Bell-Salt. Dropmore, Bucks, 1897. New county 
record. — G. C. Druce. 
R. Babingtonii, Bell-Salt., var . phyllothyrsus (K. Frid.). Norton 
Wood, Presteign, Radnorshire, nth August 1896. Verified by the 
Rev. W. M. Rogers. — Augustin Ley. “This was issued (Crowell 
Hill, Oxfordshire, 26th June 1893) i n ‘Set Brit. Rubi ’ as a second 
form (f. umbrosa) under R. Babingtonii, Dr. Focke having agreed with 
me in so naming it when I showed him the growing plant. In 1897 
Mr. Friderichsen sent me specimens of his R. phyllothyrsus (published 
by him in ‘Rub. Gallic.,’ exs. n. 81, 1896), which proves to be 
identical with our plant, except in being less glandular. When well 
marked it may be readily distinguished from typical Babingtonii by 
the numerous simple axillary leaves, the stronger more or less hooked 
prickles of panicle-rachis, the loosely-reflexed fruiting sepals, and the 
thinner more gradually acuminate leaflets. These Norton specimens 
are not as strongly marked as many. Other English counties from 
which I have seen this variety are Berkshire, Hereford, Warwick, and 
Derby.”— W. M. Rogers. 
R. Lejeunei, var. ericetorum (Lefv.). Naphill, Bucks, 1897. New 
county record. — G. C. Druce. 
R. Bloxamii, Lees. Branksome Park, Dorset, 21st June 1897 — 
W. M. Rogers. 
R. Wood on the west shore of Loch Lomond, Blarannich, 
Dumbarton, 30th September 1897. — Charles Bailey. “I think it 
belongs to my sub-Bellardiani .” — W. M. Rogers. 
R. foliosus. W. and N. Dropmore, Bucks, 1897. New county 
record. — G. C. Druce. 
R. rosaceus, W. and N., var. silvestris, R. P. Murr. Near Eastham 
Locks, Cheshire, August 1897. — J. A. Wheldon. “Rightly named, 
I believe.” — W, M. Rogers.

record. — G. C. Druce.
