this plant makes in its station at Apes Down was noted in this 

 Journal for 1910 (p. 112). 



Cladium Mar i sens R. Br. I have never been able to find this 

 plant in its only island locality. If it still exists "in the bog at 

 Easton Freshwater Gate " it, as well as all the bog plants still 

 growing there are threatened by proposed conversion of the 

 marsh into a " pleasure garden " ! 



Eriophorum latifolium Hoppe. IV. 1. There is, alas! now no 

 " boggy part of Colwell Heath," and this plant must, I fear, be 

 considered extinct. 



Carex Bmnninghausiana Weihe. V. 2. Parsonage Lynch, 

 July, 1872. 



Spartina Townsendi H. & J. Groves. IV. 3. This plant is 

 taking the place of S. stricta in the creeks on the east side of the 

 Medina below Newport. In 1867 there was only S. stricta to be 

 found in these creeks and, I believe, elsewhere in the island. Now 

 it is difficult to find S. stricta. 



Alopecurus bulbosus Gouan. V. 1. Yarmouth. 



Agrostis pumila L. IV. 3. St. George's Down. 



Catabrosa aquatica Beauv. IV. 3. Clatterford, Carisbrooke. 



Glyceria aquatica Wahl. No longer to be found in the only 

 known station in the island — Colwell Bay. I last saw it there 

 in 1886. 



Poa compressa L. IV. 3. Shide. 



Festuca Myuros L. V. 2. Knighton. 



Aspleniwn Buta-muraria L. IV. 3. Carisbrooke Castle. 

 V. 2. Gatcliffe, near Godshill. 



Osmunda regalis L. IV. 3. Extinct, I fear, in the Wilderness. 

 Though in 1870 I walked through thickets of it five or six feet 

 high, I have not been able to find a single plant in late years. 

 This is due to the rapacity of fern dealers, and the folly of fern 

 buyers. 



Botrucliium Lunaria Sw. V. 2. Meadow north of Cook's 

 Castle, near Wroxall.
