' R. integribasis, P. J. Muell. Bickerton, Cheshire, 29th July 
1905. These specimens are from a different station from those 
distributed in 1898. They have been passed by Mr. Rogers, and 
appear to be identical. The bushes are dwarf and prostrate, 
scarcely a foot high, and densely covered with small panicles 
almost to the exclusion of good barren shoots. I regret they 
had advanced so far before I was able to gather them. The 
petals are small, white, crumpled, and fugitive ; styles green, 
equalling stamens. — A. H. Wolley-Dod. 
R. integribasis, P. J. Muell? Alum Chine, Bournemouth, 
ist — 7th July 1905. The ‘?’ here is only meant to imply (as in 
my ‘Handbook’ and in ‘ Lon. Cat.,’ ed. ix.) that I have not seen 
continental specimens of Mueller’s plant. The sheets now sent 
all belong to the form (abundant in E. Dorset and S.W. Hants.) 
referred to by Dr. Focke in ‘ Journ. Bot.,’ 1890, p. 100. — W. 
Moyle Rogers. 
R. opiicus, Focke. Great Langdale, Westmoreland, July 1905. 
A frequent species along gravelly and boggy hedges where subject 
to floods, at the head of Great Langdale. Seen also in Little Lang- 
dale, both in Westmoreland and Lake Lancashire. I must apolo- 
gise for the number being wrongly printed on the labels. — 
Augustin Ley. 
R. ncmoralis, P. J. M. var. Silurum, Ley. Border of Weifa 
^Vood, Aberdare, Glamorgan, August 1905. Frequent, but in no 
great quantity, about Aberdare. Passed by Mr. Rogers and Mr. 
Ley. — FI. J. Riddelsdell. ’ Also from Lyonshall Park, Hereford- 
shire, 17th Aug. 1905. — Augustin Ley. 
R. mercicus, Bagnall. Hedge near Water Orton, Warwick- 
shire, July 1905. I have ventured to send some specimens of the 
type, although not included in the Desiderata ; and my reason 
for so doing is that I think this plant must have a wider range 
than it now appears to have, i.e. a few yards of hedge in a War- 
wickshire lane. This was formerly confused with R. ramosus, 
Blox., found by Mr. Briggs in Devonshire ; and Mr. Bloxam, to 
whom I sent fresh specimens, confirmed the naming, as did also 
INIr. Briggs. The Rev. W. M. Rogers, however, discriminated 
between the two plants. — J. E. Bagnall. 
R. mercicus^ Bagnall, var. bracteatus, Bagnall. Near Amble- 
side, Westmoreland; also near Coniston, Lake Lancashire, 12th 
July 1905. One of the most frequent brambles of this neighbour- 
hood, in lane-hedges among the lower hills, in both counties. — 
Augustin Ley. “ I find this (the Ambleside plant) to be' just like 
some of my own specimens.” — J. E. Bag^iall.
