Text Appearing Before Image:
ave three forms; from the Spanish Peninsula Nymanenumerates 21, many of them, as I know to my cost, puzzling tothe last degree. • Now, here in Dorset, we have a good chance ofstudying one point in connection with this genus. Ulex Gallii,Planch, is very abundant on our heath-lands. Often it is typicalenough, but frequently it gets very close to U. nanus, Forst,from which I suppose it to have been derived. In northernPortugal, I have observed typical U. nanus abundantly, but neveranything like U. Gallii. This (sec. Nyman) first appears innorthern Spain, then in north-western France, and finds its furthestextension in England and Ireland. We may conjecture, I think,from this distribution, and from the instability of the form, that weare looking, in U. Gallii, at the youngest, or one of the youngest,members of the Gorse family. I will only add, in conclusion, that in botany, as in othersubjects, it is very easy to ask questions but frequently verydifficult to answer them. January, 1889.
Text Appearing After Image:
^hz fUbghrag fault. By MORTON G. STUART, Esq., M.A., F.G.S. UR custom of holding the annual business meet-ing of the year at the County Museum atDorchester renders it difficult to find a suitableobject for an excursion in the afternoon. Inthe case, however, of the Ridgway Faultto-day, we have before us a geological problemof considerable interest, which has affected to a very largeextent the chalk formation, which obtains so large a develop-ment in the county, and consequently in the physical featuresand scenery of the district. There is a further reason whyRidgway Hill suggested itself as an object for an excursionthis afternoon. For some time past I have been trying to collectmaterials for the description of the various features of the chalkof Dorsetshire, and at Ridgway Hill I thought the opportunityoffered itself of noticing one of the most striking features of thegreat chalk formation of the county. From here one of the finestviews of the surrounding country is obtainable. North
