cluclno and Conway. Cultivation may have exterminated it, 

 Inchbald. 



Orchis pyramidalis L. Sychtyn, 1867, Hb. Jones. Llandrillo- 

 yn-Elios, 1868, Hh. Harris. Henllan quarry, Fl. B. Little Orme, 

 Drinkwater. Sparingly distributed on the ledges of the limestone 

 cliffs near Llysfaen, Ogle. Bryn Euryn, Russell. 



0. morio L. Pont-y-mwyn\vr, Llanferres, Hh. Potts. Eossett, 

 Thovias sp. Common in Colwyn Bay area, Bussell. Field between 

 Marchwiei and Erbistock. Is doubtless much commoner and more 

 widely distributed than these scanty records indicate. 



0. latifolia L. Llyn-y-Fawnog and Nant-y-glyn, Bussell. 

 There is some doubt as to whether this is Orchis latifolia or 

 0. incarnata. 0. latifolia L. is, however, already recorded for 

 Denbigh in the Flora of Anglesey and Carnarvon : — Between 

 Deganwy and Llandudno. I have also seen it about the swampy 

 margins of Llyn Creiniog above Llansannan. 



Ophrys apifera Huds. I have Denbighshire records for the 

 Bee Orchis from seven or eight stations, all on limestone. As it 

 is by no means a common plant and plant collectors are frequent, 

 it is undesirable that the stations be too precisely indicated. 



-''0. muscifera Huds. Dr. Kussell informs me that he had an 

 undoubted Denbigh specimen of Fly Orchis sent him some time 

 ago. This solitary record of its occurrence in Denbighshire refers 

 to a station in the northern portion of the county. 



Hahenaria conopsea Benth. Abundant on the headland 

 [Llandudno] , Inchbald. Pont-y-mwynwr, Llanferres, Hb. Potts. 

 Llysfaen, Bussell. Llandegla, J. M. H. d W. H. Great Orme.

 degla, /. M. H. & W. H. Chirk. 



H. bifolia Br. On the hill above Fron frys, Glyn Ceiriog, 

 1860, Osio. F. C. On the Denbigh side of Maes Mynan wood, 

 near Caerwys, Mrs. Neio. Field by the pathway ascending the 

 Great Orme from Gogarth, Williams. Near Abergele, Mrs. 

 Fletcher. High hill Nant-y-glyn ; only one specimen seen, Bussell. 

 ■''H. virescens Druce (= H. chloroleuca Eidley). Llansilin, Hb. 

 Jones. On the banks of the Meirchion, at the beginning of the 

 wood above Pont-y-pant, right bank, Fl. B. Llanddulas, Bussell. 

 Chirk. 



Iris fcetidissima L. Said to occur in Gloddaeth Woods, Inch- 

 bald. In quantity by roadside near entrance to Nant-y-garth 

 from Llandegla, J. M. H. d- W. H. 



Narcissus Pseiulo-Narcissus Li. On banks of the Elwy opposite 

 Cefn, below Pont Newydd, Fl. B. On island in Clwyd, just below 

 Pennant's Eeach, Fl. B. Thickets under Pen-y-graig rocks, Glyn 

 Ceiriog, 1870, Hb. Jones. Mr. Whitwell, who has seen the speci- 

 mens, writes : — " It is a very tall (twenty inches above ground) 

 and large-flowered form ; flowers twice as large as type— perianth 

 divisions equalling the corona. Miss Jones has named it major, 

 but I cannot satisfactorily determine it to be other than N. Pseudo- 

 Narcissus proper, very large." Abundant in a meadow on
