6 PROCEEDINGS OF THE 



Tansley, Cambridge, 1911, p. 101). Other parts fit in -well with 

 the Heath Association, op. tit. p. 105, tliough the author thinks 

 that neither Genista pilosa nor Juni penis communis occur, and 

 some species (such as the Broom. Molinia, Galium .sa.vatile, ISenecio 

 S'fh'aticus, and Serrcdula tindoria) are perhaps more abundant 

 than is indicated in tlie list given by Mr. Tansley. 



There are many tracts which may be described as partially 

 reclaimed heutli and on which we find Foli/gala serpyllacea, 

 Jhipericum perforatum, Ulex minor, Genista tindoria, Epilolnum 

 oni/astifolium, Galium verum, G. eredum, Scahiosa Snccisa, SoJida(/o 

 Virtjaurea, Anthemis nohilis , Euplirusia brevijnlu, Luzula multijlora, 

 Juncus squarrostts, etc. 



Much of tlie high ground forms plateaux covered with gravel 

 some 10 to 15 feet tliick, and on it we find the usual heath- 

 plants: considerable areas of Vaccininm AlyrtiUus with SciUa 

 nonscripta, JVepeta Jiederaeea, Teucrium Scorodonia, and in damp 

 places rushes and Pohjgonnm IJydropiper. 



IVecehrum verticillatum is ])erhaps the most interesting plant 

 found iti the district. It was recorded by Mr. Druce in his 

 'Elora of Berkshire,' p. 416, and the author exhibited a specimen 

 collected by himself last year. He also showed specimens of 

 Foientilla arr/i'iitea, Galium ulir/inosum, Antirrhinum Orontium, 

 Scutellaria minor, Jlumc.r Hydrolapatlivm , and Epipactis media of 

 British botanists. In addition, a series of forms of Hieracium, 

 and a new species, to be described by the Kev. E. F. Linton,
