60 A FLORA OP GIBRALTAR AND THE NEIGHBOURHOOD 



7-8. Perez Lara only gives one other station in the province, 

 but says that 0. nervosum Boiss., with glandular, not glabrous 

 corolla is much more frequent. III. i. Between Neutral Ground 

 and Guadarranque, D. Campamento and San Eoque, Frere. 



Bourgcea humilis Goss. Dry grassy places ; very common ; 

 5-7. Often mistaken for next. Inner phyllaries longly acuminate 

 and spinose, like outer. An albino is rather frequent, and is 

 doubtless the plant referred to as Cynara alba by Kelaart. 

 I. Engineer Eoad ! III. ! 



Cynara Cardunculus L. (C. horrida Sibth.). Similar places ; 

 rare or error ? 5-7. Much taller, with fewer broader leaf 

 segments and rachis, phyllaries with very stout spines, the 

 inmost with an expanded membranous appendage. I much 

 doubt its occurrence. [I. Boiss. ex Deb. Fl. p. 113. Boissier's 

 label reads "between Estepona and Gibraltar"! Kelaart's 

 specimen is Bourgaa humilis.'] III. i. Dry hills of Campamento, 

 K. 7 San Eoque, D. ? 



Notobasis syriaca Cass. Fields ; common ; 5-6. II. A plant 

 or two ! III. ! 



[Cirsium lanceolatum Scop. var. hypoleucum DC. is recorded 

 by Kelaart as introduced in Gibraltar. I have seen leaves 

 of what might be this between Guadacorte and the railway 

 bridge.] 



C. giganteum Spr. Eather damp places, chiefly near streams; 

 here and there plentiful ; 6-8. Often 8-9 ft. high. III. i. First 

 Pine Wood ! Eare in Carteian Hills ! Near Second Venta ! 

 Between Malaga Gardens and Alcadeza ! Near Almendral, K. 

 ii. Below El Cobre ! Near top of Waterfall Valley ! M. de la 

 Torre ! Carnero Hills ! 



\Carduus myriacanthus Salzm. Sands near sea; rare; 4-5. 

 About 1 ft. high, like a very spiny C. ijycnocephalus, but phyllaries 

 much narrower, with long spinose tips. G. Beuterianus Boiss., 

 which differs in no important character, is frequent in the 

 province. II. Isthmus of Gibraltar, Wk. ! III. i. Linea, Porta 

 (& Bigo ! About San Eoque, Boiss. 



C. tenuiflorus Curt. Waste places and roadsides ; frequent or 

 common ; 4-6. Perhaps only a variety of next, with stem 

 winged to top, heads subsessile, densely capitate, &c. I. ! III. ! 



G. ivjcnocephalus Jacq. Similar places ; frequent but less so 

 than last ; 4-6. Stem interruptedly winged, naked at top, heads 

 larger and laxer, 2-3 together, the central usually peduncled. 

 I. ! II. ! III. ! 



fC. nigrescens Vill. Heathy places; rare; 4-7. Like next, 

 but heads smaller and erect, phyllaries more glabrous, not 

 reflexed. I. ? Dasoi. III. i. Path to First Pine Wood ! 



fC nutans L. Similar places; rare; 5-7. III. ii. Near 

 Algeciras, Clem. 



Silybum Marianum Gaertn. Eoadsides and waste places ; 

 rather frequent ; here and there abundant ; 4-6. I. Europa 

 Flats ! Jews' Cemetery ! North Front ! II. ! III. ! 



Galactites tomentosa Moench. Dry rough fields ; abundant.
