156 THE MISSELTOE. 



Tiatm'ally, as far as I am aware, and I have availed myself of numerous 

 authorities for the same: that there may be found others, I have no doubt, 

 and I hope this article will be the means of inducing some of your numerous 

 correspondents, particularly your Herefordshire ones, to record them in the 

 pages of "The Naturalist." I am well aware that it is to be found growing 

 artificially on the Oak. Mr. Beaton caused it, as we have done ourselves, to 

 grow on the Oak; the manner of so doing we shall notice. 

 The Lime Tree, {TiUa^ L.) 



1 East Tytherley. There is a tree beautifully studded with it. 



2 Home Park, Windsor. The noble Lime trees are covered. 



S Penhurst Park, Kent. There are fine specimens, which at a distance are 



said to resemble a rookery, 

 4 The avenue of Hampton Court, has some fine specimens. 

 o At Bushy Park, Ditto. 



Sutton Place, Surrey. The late Mr. Loudon says that in 1831, the Lime 



trees at this place were eaten up with this parasite. 

 7 Shardeloes, Buckinghamshire. 



The above seven are the only recorded Lime trees on which I am aware 

 that this parasite is found; of course there are many others. 



The Maple, [Acer, L.) 

 It is found on the Maple in Yorkshire and Huntingdonshire; the names of 

 the places we shall feel obliged for. 



The Common Ash, [Fraximtf^, L.) 



1 am not aware that there is, or has been more than one recorded instance 

 of this parasite growing on the Common Ash, which is said to be at Tinloy 

 Park, Hampshire. I hope some of your Hampshire correspondents will be 

 kind enough to record any. 



The Poplar, (Popnlus, L.) 



1 Ashton, near Rotherham. 



2 Sutton Place, Surrey. Loudon remarks that the trees were eaten up 



with it. It has been found on both the Black and White, as also 

 the Lombardy Poplars. 



The Elm, (Uhnus^ Z.) 

 It has been recorded to have been found on the Elm, and if we mistake 

 not in Kent. We shall be much obliged for any notice of it on this tree. 

 We have a note of its being either foimd in Tjancashire or Westmorland. 



The Apple (Pyrus malm, L.) 

 It is common on this tree in various parts of England, particularly in the 

 orchard counties. The examples of it on this tree are too numerous to 

 record here. If there is a county in England or Wales in which it is not 

 found growing on the Apple, it would be well to record the same. 



The Common Hawthorn, (CratcBgiis^ L.) 

 It is also common on this plant. We ask the same query as above.
