R. tomentosaP — H. and J. Groves. 
R. glauca, VilL, variation II. in Ann. Sc. Nat. Hist. 1896, 
“ teeth simple, ped. hispid-glandular, sepals glandular on back.” 
Yeldersley Lane, near Shirley, Derby, 20th Aug. 1904. Variation

R. coriifolia, Fr., variation III. in Ann. Sc. Nat. Hist. 1896. 
Yeldersley Lane, near Shirley, Derby, 20th Aug. 1904. — W. R. 
Linton. “This is not the plant usually known as R. coriifolia, 
the leaves being thin and sparsely hairy, and the peduncles fairly 
long.” — H. and J. Groves. 
R. arvensis, Huds., var. bibracteata (Bast.) Sellack, Hereford- 
shire, 1 6th August 1904. This form is unlike any which I have 
come across. There is one small bush of it in a hedge ; and 
although it has the technical characters of R. bibracteata in an 
exaggerated degree, I suspect it to be a hybrid. — Augustin Ley. 
“ Crepin (J. of B. 1896, p. 178) considers that R. bibracteata, Bast., 
is a hybrid between R. sempervirens and R. arvensis. Mr. Ley’s 
plant seems to us a weak form of the latter, but in view of his 
suggestion of hybridity, it would be interesting to know whether 
or not the fruit usually matures.” — H. and J. Groves. 
CratcBgus Oxyacantha, L., var. kyrtostyla (Fingerh.) ? Yel- 
dersley Lane, near Shirley, Derby, loth June and 29th August 
1904; near Stevenage, Herts, 21st Sept. 1904. — VV. R. Linton. 
“ The Stevenage plant is apparently C. oxyacanthoides, Thuill., 
that from Yeldersley seems to be near C. monogyna, Jacq. Is 
C. kyrtostyla Fingerh. distinguishable from C. moiiogynaV' — H. and 
J. Groves.
