the very few American species which were noticed during 

 the summers of 1907 and 1908. The corolla is usually 

 white, but the St. Anne's examples were a faint blueish 

 pink. 



Datura Stramoniuvi, Linn. A single example of a 

 widely-spread European species. 



Verbasciun vi^'gntiun, Stokes. A plant in the British 

 lists, but adventitious at St. Anne's. V. tJiapsifornie, 

 Schrad. (named for me by Mr. Baker), occurred on the 

 sandhills within the area, but not associated with other 

 aliens. 



Salvia verticillata, Linn., was another European species 

 of wide distribution which was fairly frequent at St. Anne's 

 in 1908 ; it was scarcer in 1907. 



Salvia viridis, Linn. A few examples of this brightly 

 coloured species were met with ; it attracted too much 

 attention to escape destruction. 



Salvia Andrzejowski, Blocki. A Transylvanian species, 

 the name of which I owe to Mr. Baker ; very difficult to 

 account for at St. Anne's. There were numerous examples, 

 but few reached maturity. 



Stachys italica, Mill. A species with distribution from 

 southern Italy eastwards. Only a single example seen. 



Dracocephalum parviflornni, Nutt. This plant gave 

 some trouble to the Kew authorities to name, anci it was 

 returned without a name, but Mr. Baker unravelled it for

 examples were seen ; one, which I transplanted to my
