20 SOUTH-EAST DEVON PLANTS. 



sucli abundance, and by the Teign ; and again, six or seven miles 

 north-east of that, on a high bank by the roadside between Ide 

 and Exeter, less than a mile from the city. 



Epilohium tctrai/onum, Linn. In Ashton and Chudleigh 

 parishes ; frequent near the town. 



CaUitriche obtusangida, Le Gal. Found by Mr. Briggs and 

 myself in a deep pool by the Teign in Ashton parish, and in 

 another pool by the same river below Chudleigh Bridge. Not 

 recorded for South Devon in ' Topogr. Bot.' 



Petroselinum secjetum, Koch., and Sison Amomum, Linn. Both 

 frequent in the district ; as also about Exmouth and Lympstone. 



(Enmithe pimpinelloides, Linn. Frequent through the district 

 in meadows, and occasionally in dry bushy places. It is also 

 certainly not very rare along the south-east Devon coast, as I 

 have found it on the cliffs at Salcombe Hill, near Sidmouth ; at 

 Budleigh Salterton, at Exmouth, and between Lympstone and 

 Topsham. At Exmouth I was surprised to find an unmistakable 

 specimen of it in a salt marsh. 



ToriJis infesta, Spreng. In the parishes of Trusham and 

 Ashton ; but so far as I have seen only in cultivated fields. 

 Lacks personal authority for South Devon in ' Topogr. Bot.' 



Charophylhim Authriscus, Lam. This species, certainly un- 

 common or very local in the south-west of England, is to be 

 found in considerable quantity in a waste spot or two in Trusham 

 parish. The only other station in the county where I have seen 

 it is between Mount Pleasant and Dawlish Warren. 



Smyrnium Olusatrum, Linn. Well established in and about 

 Trusham Churchyard, and at Ashton. A garden "escape?" 

 By the sea I have seen it near Dawlish, Lympstone, Exmouth, 

 and Budleigh Salterton. 



Viburnum Lantana, Linn. At the Chudleigh Kocks, and near 

 Kingsteignton (between Chudleigh and Newton Abbot) ; but it 

 appears to be rare in the district, though frequent farther east in 

 the county. V. Opulus, Linn., is much more general. 



lUibia peregriiia, Linn. I have not yet been able to find this 

 in Trusham ; but it is frequent in the contiguous parishes on all 

 sides, Chudleigh, Ashton, and Christowe. 



Galium tricorne, With. In cultivated fields at Trusham and 

 Ashton. Introduced with seed ? Not recorded for South Devon 

 in ' Topogr. Bot.' 



VaJcnancUa carinata, Lois. Found by Mr. Briggs, and by him 

 pointed out to me, in great quantity on a roadside wall by 13ovey 

 Tracey ; but I have not been able to discover it elsewhere in the 

 district. Finds no place in 'Topogr. Bot.,' and in ' Lond. Cat.' 

 is printed in italics only, as not an admitted "native" of the 

 British Isles. 



Valerianella Auricula, DC. Not uncommon in the imrishes of 

 Trusham and Ashton ; indeed I have seldom looked for it in 

 vain wherever in this district I have found the commoner species, 

 V. dent at a, Koch., in any abundance.
