 myself, attended by John Jones, went upon the Berwyn a little to 

 the east of the Geraint or Barber's Hill to botanize. Here we 

 found a fern [sic] which John Jones called Coed llus y Bran, or 

 the plant of the crow's berry. There w^as a hard kind of berry 

 upon it, of which he said the crows were exceedingly fond"

 My nan wood, near Caerwys, Mrs. Netu. 



Listera cordata Br. [" Seen in two or three places about 

 Llansilin," Miss Jones. I fancy there may be some slip here, 

 perhaps a lapsus plmnce, and think the following species may be 

 intended, as there is no reference to L. ovata in the catalogue of 

 Miss Jones's collection.] Near Llangollen, 1859, Osw. F. C. "It 

 seems to be pretty generally distributed. On the moors in several 

 places north and south of the Dee. Near the boundary which 

 divides the counties of Merioneth and Denbigh, south of Moel 

 Ferna, on the Berwyns, 1890," T. Ruddy.
