THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF THE BRITISH ISLES. 
was deferred until August. Mr. Fry tells me however that in 1897 
they grew to at least double the size. As this is the only known 
station in the county of Somerset, I hope to send a better supply of 
specimens another time. — Jas. W. White. “ Correctly named, I 
believe. One of the less prickly forms, with exceptionally hairy 
leaves.” — W. M. Rogers. 
Rubus integribasis , P. J. Muell. ? Bournemouth, South Hants, 1 ith 
June and 19th November 1897. The plant numbered 435 in ‘ Lond. 
Cat.,’ ed. ix., described in ‘ Journ. Bot.,’ 1892, p. no, and abundant 
in South and East Dorset and South-West Hants. Thus named 
provisionally by Dr. Focke, after he had seen it growing in the 
Bournemouth neighbourhood. The ? after the name indicates the 
uncertainty which still exists as to the a Dual identity of this British 
form with Mueller’s R. integribasis. Last autumn I saw on Tooting 
Common, Surrey, a small quantity of what seemed the same form. Dr. 
Focke has also so named a small plant collected some years ago near 
Bickerton Hill, Cheshire, by Captain Wolley Dod, which, however, is 
hardly identical with the south country form, although it seems best 
placed under it.— W. Moyle Rogers. 
R. holerythros , Focke. Blackdown Common; Park Wood, Mares- 
field; Downland Wood and the Budletts Common, near Uckfield, 
East Sussex; flowers June 1897; fruit August 1897. — E. H. Farr. 
“A most interesting county record.” — W. M. Rogers. 
R. erythrinus , Genev., forma glandulosa. Streatham and Tooting 
Commons, Surrey, 27th August 1897. A strong form of open and 
sunny places, which I have also seen in some quantity in West Kent 
(on-Tunbridge Wells Common and near Sevenoaks) ; occurring only, 
so far as I have yet observed, where the type is absent. Besides 
having a rather considerable glandular development and more numerous 
simple floral leaves on the panicle, it is usually more prickly than the 
common form. Its leaves also are more decidedly white-felted beneath. 
This degree of variation from type is however much less than that 
found in the hairy-stemmed greyer plant (No. 58 in ‘Set of British 
Rubi’), which Dr. Focke was at first disposed to name R. argenteus, 
Wh. and N., and to place under R. erythrinus , Genev. — W. Moyle 
Rogers. 
R. Silurian , A. Ley. Llanwrtyd, Brecon ; and Nantymwyn, 
Carmarthenshire, 3rd August 1897. Both verified by the Rev. W. M. 
Rogers. — Augustin Ley. 
R. pulcherrimus , Neum. Eastham Wood, Cheshire, July 1897. 
Mr. Rogers says “ I think it is a nearly eglandular form of R. 
pulcherrimus .” — J. A. Wheldon. 
R. pulcherrimus , Neum. Brickhill, July 1897; Bucks 24, and 
Beds 30. New county records. — G. C. Druce.
