NOTES ON THE FLORA OF BUXTON. 77 



V. odorata L. Miller's Dale, but only near houses. — Y. lutea Huds. 

 Corbar Hill, north-east slope, over 350 yds. ; iu plenty, flowers 

 mostly all yellow. 



Folyi/ala oxijptera Reich. Top of Corbar Hill, about 400 yds., 

 very characteristic and plentiful. To this segregate perhaps belongs 

 most of the Fuliffjala in the limestone dales near Buxton and on 

 Axe Edge ; though some of it, I think, and certainly all that I saw 

 near Chapel-en-le-Frith, must be named P. depressa Wender. I 

 saw nothing that I should name typical vnUjaris. 



Sileue injiata Sm. Miller's Dale, in one place, over 800 yds., 

 on the hill above the railway-station. 



Stellaria Holostea L. Ascends to 350 yds. near Buxton. 



Arenaria trinervia L. Chapel-en-le-Frith ; up to 350 yds. at 

 Buxton. — A. leptoclados Guss. Valley of the Wye, between Miller's 

 Dale and Monsal Dale, in two or three spots, up to 250 yds. 



Saghia apetala L. Steps of the " Slopes " at Buxton. — S. ciliata 

 Fries. In one place (waste ground) near the Buxton Public 

 Gardens. — S. nudosa Meyer. Miller's Dale, 



Spergula arvensis L. In one place at Buxton. 



Hypericum tetrapterum Fries. Chapel-en-le-Frith ; Wye Valley, 

 below Miller's Dale. 



Qeranium santinineum L. Limestone ledges in the Wye Valley, 

 a little east of Miller's Dale, with Silene nutans and Centaurea 

 Scabiosa, np to nearly 300 yds. 



Ulex Gallii Planchon. Chapel-en-le-Frith, very abundant ; up 

 to nearly 400 yds. on Corbar Hill, Buxton. 



Sarothamnus scoparius Koch. Seen only on railway-banks at 

 Cbapel-en-le-Frith. 



Tri/oUum medium L. Chapel-en-le-Frith ; Lover's Leap. 



Yicia an(justifolia Roth. Up to nearly 300 yds. in Miller's Dale, 

 but apparently scarce. 



Orubus tuberusus L. Between Bugsworth and River Goyt ; 

 Chapel-en-le-Frith ; Miller's Dale. 



Alchemilla arvensis Scop. Chapel-en-le-Frith. Seen nowhere 

 else; while A. vulgaris L. is one of the commonest plants in all 

 grassy places. 



FutentiUa procumbens Sibth. In the lane fi'om Bugsworth 

 towards Whaley Bi'idge. 



Fiubus a/finis W. & N. I give this name, on Mr. Baker's 

 authority, to a luxuriant and very handsome bramble which I 

 found in great quantity about "New Mills," on the Derbyshire 

 side of River Goyt, near Whaley Bridge Railway-station. He 

 considers it the usual northern form of this species. I had thought 

 it nearer Fi. calvatus Blox., but I have seen nothing quite like it in 

 S. England. — F. leucustaclujs Sm. In one place only, near the 

 top of the hill above Monsal Dale, by the Cressbrook School 

 Church, about 250 yds. ; very fine and characteristic. — F. discolor 

 W. &N. I searched for in vain. Close to Buxton, the only bramble 

 (except hlciius) that occurs in any quantity is F. pallidus Weihe, and 

 that nowhere iu the open ; but in one spot in Corbar Wood I found 

 a small patch of another species growing in such deep shade as to
