Abstract
DR. W. A. SLEDGE, of the University of Leeds, who has recently brought home from New Zealand a collection of dried plants, kindly allowed me to look through his surplus stock of species belonging to Ranunculus and to take what flowers I liked for examination, as I am especially interested in the petal of this genus. One species, Ranunculus tenuicaulis Cheesem., appealed to me particularly on his information that he had noticed it when growing to have reddish flowers. Red colouring is unusual among buttercups.
