6 THE EXISTING FLOWERING PLANTS OF EPPIXG FOREST. 



Artemisia vulgaris, Linn. Grew some years ago by the 

 railway near Leyton. I have not seen it lately.

 Buxton's list, but is quite abundant at Buckhurst Hill and 

 Walthamstow. 



S. erucifolius, Linn. Near Theydon. 



S. jacobaea and S. aquaticus are very common. 



Lactuca virosa, Linn. About Hale End. 



L. muralis, Fresen. Near High Beach, but getting scarcer. 



Wahlenbergia hederacea, Reichb. Still to be found in its 

 old stations, but decreasing in quantity. 



Vaccinium myrtillus, Linn. Yet exists in its one locality, 

 sometimes flowering.
