In woods and hedges. 



At Whitstable, Surrey, and near Darking. Merrett. On the banks 

 of the Mole, near Box-hill. Mr. E. Forster. Near Streatham 

 wells, Surrey. Mr. Dubois in his herbarium at Oxford. In Stoken- 

 church woods, apparently planted. Mr. Bicheno. About Nor- 

 wich, but scarcely wild. 



/3. In Stoken-church woods, and at Malm.sbury. Bobart. Not 

 now to be found at Stoken-church. Dr. Williams. Only one 

 tree observed there by Mr. Bicheno, in the autumn of 1824. 



Tree. June, July ; a fortnight earlier than T. europcea. 



As tall a tree as the foregoing, with spreading, round brown branches, 

 hairy during the first season ; of a shining red in /3, but whether 

 that' variety be permanent, or whether all our Tilice have not red 

 twigs occasionally, as Mr. E. Forster thinks, appears doubtful. 

 Leaves as large as in T. europrea, but less entire at the base, 

 less pointed, and with rather longer footstalks ; their upper 

 surface bright green, minutely hairy about the ribs, and more 

 or less so at the edges, between the serratures, as noticed by 

 the too much neglected BuUiard ; under side rather paler, not 

 glaucous, all over finely and softly downy, the ribs and veins 

 curiously fringed, particularly just above the origin of each,
