variety. Petals pure white, styles siibsessile. — E. S. Marshall. 
“ Most typical, an exceedingly abundant and well marked Devon 
plant.’' — W. M. Rogers. 
Pyrus latifolia, Syme, v. decipiens^ N. E. Brown. Minehead, 
Somerset, 5th Sept., 1894. — R. P. Murray. 
P, intermedia^ Ehrh. Mountain cliff, Craig Castle, Breconshire, 
5th June, 1894. Growth of P. Aria, with long thick straggling 
branches ; anthers pink ; fruit large, dull red. Has P. intermedia 
constantly pink anthers ? Those of P. Aria are commonly cream- 
coloured. — Augustin Ley. W ooded limestone cliffs, Piercefield, Mon., 
1 6th May and 14th Sept., 1894. The tree from which these specimens 
were gathered was, I believe, first discovered by the Rev. A. Ley 
some years ago. The flowering pieces sent were gathered by Mr. 
Ley and myself. There is no doubt about the tree being native here. 
P. Aria, latifolia and tormmalis are growing in near vicinity, but as 
fruit is pretty freely produced it does not appear to be a hybrid. A 
few years ago I found another small tree of it on the cliffs at Pen 
Moyle, on the opposite (W. Glos.) side of the Wye, and last year Mr. 
Ley and I found another on the limestone cliffs at Mounton, Mon., 
about two-and-a-half miles from the Piercefield station. The flowers 
of intermedia are larger than those of typical Aria, and the anthers 
bright red instead of dirty white. The fruit is much smaller than in 
Aria, a bright clear sealing-wax red, not at all inclining to orange, and 
is devoid of tomentum. — W. A. Shoolbred. 
P. . Limestone cliff, Craig Cille, Breconshire, 5th June, 
1894. See ‘Report,’ 1893, p. 415. I have made further observations 
on this Pyrus this season. It flowered profusely this year, as all of 
the Whitebeam section, and I had good opportunities of observing it. 
Bush slender, much branched ; flowers much smaller than those of P. 
Aria and P. intermedia-, petals about half the size of those of the 
latter; anthers cream-coloured. Fruit ripening about the ist of Sep- 
tember, small round bright red, very bitter in taste. Ripe fruit of the 
size and colour of a small holly-berry. — Augustin Ley. Published 
as P. minima, n. sp., or n. van, by Mr. Ley in ‘Journ. of Bot.,’ 1895, 
p. 84. 
P. communis, L. v. Achras (Gsert.). Moreton Morrell, Warwickshire, 
May and July, 1894. — H. Bromwich. “I should call this van 
PyrasterP — G. C. Druce. Seems correct, but fruit wanted for 
determination. — W. R. L. 
Saxifraga granulata, L. A few fine specimens are enclosed of 
this plant from the margin of a wood near Bucklerbury, Berks, June, 
1894. — G. Claridge Druce. 
S. Sternbergii, Willd. On rocks near Blackhead, Co. Clare, 19th 
May, 1892. See ‘Report,’ 1892, p. 371. — H. C. Levinge. 
Ribes Uva-crispa, L. Plantation near Alstonfield, Staffordshire, 
26th June, 1891. — W. H. Purchase This has the fruit setose, whilst 
R. Uva-crispa is a smooth-fruited plant. — W. R. L.
