Levinge. “ Both Schlechtendalii and new County records (and ‘ not 
previously distributed from Distr. VII, ‘Cybele Hibernica’ H. C. L.); 
but the Colwyn specimens are too poor to be characteristic,” — W. M. R. 
Rubtis mollissimus^ Rogers. Derwenteg woods, Bangor, Carnarvon- 
shire, June, 1895. — J- E. Griffith. “A very interesting new 
County record. Slightly differing from my type by rather shorter 
stamens and more deeply incised (or lobate-incised) leaves. The 
leaves are also thinner and less soft beneath, as is natural in a wood- 
land form.”— W. M. R. 
R. cambricus, Focke. Perfeddcoed Road, near Bangor, Aug., 1895 1 
also a very prickly form, near Cwm Glo, Llanberis, Carnarvonshire, 
Sept., 1895. — J. E. Griffith. Bank of tramway, and (the prickly 
form again) open space Coed Pax, at the base of the debris on N. 
side of the Penrhyn Slate Quarries, near Bethesda, Carnarvonshire, 
27th Sept., 1895. This and the other brambles named in this 
‘ Report,’ collected at Bethesda on the same date, I owe to the kind 
guidance and company of Mr. J. E. Griffith. — Charles Bailey. 
“i?, cambricus (allied to R. Questierii, Lefv. and Muell., though very 
obviously distinct from it) is described by Dr. Focke in Mr. Griffith’s 
‘Flora of Anglesey and CarnarvonshTe,’ p. 46, The sepals, there 
spoken of as ‘ reflexed after flowering,’ become erect in fruit. It is 
locally abundant in E. Carnarvonshire, and in 1890, the Rev. R. P. 
Murray found a form near Woking, which almost seems to furnish a 
link between it and R. Questierii. The prickly form (Llanberis and 
Bethesda) somewhat recalls the R. infestus, Weihe, growing with it at 
Bethesda. As is explained in ‘ Journ. Bot.’ 1896, p. 286, the name 
R. cambricus., Focke (1895), must give place to R. le?itigi?iosus, Lees, 
(1849).”— W. M. R. 
R. Sprengelii., Weihe. Near Mere Clough, Prestwich, S. E. 
Lancashire, 26th July, 1894. — J. Cosmo Melvill, Dinting, Derby, 
fide W. M. Rogers, 22nd Aug., 1894. A most luxuriant plant growing 
in a copse in shade. — Wm. R. Linton. “The panicle of the Dinting 
plant seems conclusive evidence of the species, in spite of the abnormal 
stem pieces. The Mere Clough specimen is typical.” — W. M. R. 
R. pyramidalis, Kalt. (very hairy-stemmed form) W. M. Rogers. 
Banks of the Ogwen, near Bethesda, Carnarvonshire, 27th Sept., 1895. 
— Charles Bailey. “ In August, 1894, Dr. Focke, Mr. Griffith and I 
together saw this plant growing by the Ogwen, and then Dr. Focke, 
after some consideration, named it R. pyramidalis, as Mr. Bailey states 
I had previously done after examination of dried specimens. In Nov., 
1894, however. Dr. Focke, in a letter to Mr. Griffith, named it R. 
hirtifolius, Muell. and Wirtg., and now that I have seen a great deal 
of R. hirtifolius, and gathered fresh specimens in two counties, I think 
the latter determination must stand, because of the lax panicle and 
the comparatively thin obovate leaflets.” — W. M. R.
