The "White Beam Tkek, (Pt/nis Aria Ehrli.) • 



It has been found growing on this tree on the Sussex Downs. 



The Service Tree^ (Pyrus Sarins Gae.) 

 It has been found growing on this tree, bnt the names of the exact localities 

 are not stated, but we think Lancashire. 



The Willow, (Salix, L.) 

 It has been found growing on the Willow in many parts of England; we 

 have seen it in several instances in Dorset. This is one of the common 

 trees on which this parasite is to be found. 



The Buckthorx, (Pihamnus, L.) 

 We have a recorded instance of its having been found on this tree, in 1764, 

 both in Westmorland and Lancashire. 



The Nut Tree, {Corylwa, L.) 



It has been found growing on the C'ommon Nut and Filbert, but we rather 



imagine these to have been grafted by the hand of man. 



The RoBiNiA, (Z?. Pseudacacia, L.) 



It has been found growing on this tree, but the exact places are not recorded. 



The Cherry Laurel, (Cerasus^ L.) 

 It has been found growing on the Common Laurel, Common Cherry, and 

 Bird Cherry. 



The Holly, [Ilex, L.) 



It has been recorded to have grown on this tree, which we imagine to have 

 been a grafted specimen, as there is no recorded instance in a state of nature, 

 (what is here meant by nature is the woods and wild places.) That it will 

 grow on the Holly we are well aware, having caused it to do so ourselves. 



The Mountain Ash, (Pyrus aucnparia.) 

 It has been found growing on this tree. 



The Walnut, (Juglans, L.) 

 We have a recorded instance of its having grown in a garden in Cheapside, 

 in the year 1704, on this tree, and we believe it to be the only instance 

 on record of its being made to grow on the Walnut. 



On the Continent we have the following recorded instances of its occurrence 

 on the following trees: — On the Oak, at Lobsens, in the Duchy of Posen. 

 Berlin, a Mr. Brachenridze found it growing on several Oak trees. In France 

 it is of rare occurrence to find it on the Oak, yet it abounds on the Almond, 

 {Amygdalus Ton.) In Spain, and near to Jerusalem, on the Olive, {Olea, L.) 

 At Schuitzingen, on the Poplar; at Strasburgh, on the Lime Tree; at Carlsruhe, 

 and in the neighbourhood of Magdeburgh, it is found in immense quantities 

 on the Pinus sylvestvis, or Scotch Pine. We are not aware of its ever 

 having been found on any of the Coniferce in England. Here, thus we have 

 no less than twenty-two recorded trees on which this interesting parasite has 

 been found growing or caused to grow; and, as we have before observed, we
