“ In the 1905 Report the majority of critics considered this plant to

Betula nana X pubescens. Glen Callater, S. Aberdeen, 23rd

earlier name than B. pubescens, Ehrh. — G. C. Druce. 
Salix alba x . Near Railway Station, Croft, Leicestershire,

it reminds me of 6". alba purpurea— fragilis. — W. Bell. “ S. alba, 
L. Fruit quite typical. Foliage required to say if type or var. 
ccBrulea. — E. F. Linton.

S. purpurea X viminalis = S. rubra, Huds. Abernant Park,

S. Caprea y. Lapponum, Ref. No. 2961. Lochy Burn (about 
1,800 feet), Glen Shee, v.-c. 89, E. Perth, 13th July 1906. From 
the original British plant, first found by me in 1892. — Edward S. 
Marshall and W. A. Shoolbred. Also from Glen Callater, 
S. Aberdeen, 23rd July 1906. — W. A. .Shoolbred. “There is 
some mistake, apparently accidental, in Mr. Shoolbred’s specimen 
from Lochy Burn ; the leaves have blackened in drying, showing 
the presence of S. fiigricans in the plant, indeed I learn that it 
has been pronounced to be merely a form of 6'. nigricans by 
E. F. L.”— W. R. L. 
S. herbacea x repens. Ref. No. 2,966. Near the Spittal of 
Glen Shee, v.-c. 89, E. Perth, 14th July 1906. Several plants of 
this hybrid were met with, growing with the parents, between 
1,200 and 1,500 feet. The present form is remarkable for its small 
foliage, which mimics that of Vaccinium uliginosunu — Edward S. 
Marshall and W. A. Shoolbred.
