GERANIACE. 
Geranium dissectum. 
Geranium Robertianum. 
Erodium cicutarium. (Very common on the 
dry sandy lands. 
PArRILLIONACE 2, 
Spartium scoparium;, L. (So commonly sown 
for covert for game, that I can hardly tell 
where, in this district, it is really native). 
. Ulex Europzus. 
. Ononis arvensis. (Very common on the open 
sandy lands. The prevailing form, here, 
seems to be the O. repens of Withering). 
. Anthyllis vulneraria. (Especially abundant 
on the chalk hill near Barton Mills, over 
which the road to Newmarket passes). 
. Medicago falcata. (In old chalk-pits and 
sand-pits, on dry, sunny uncultivated 
ground, among short grass, on sandy or 
chalky soil, abundant in many places in 
the neighbourhood ; certainly a native :— 
The variety with flowers of various shades of 
purple, and mixed purple and _ yellow, 
(apparently an intermediate variety between 
the typical falcata and the cultivated M. 
sativa), occurs now and then; in 1851, 
I found it in the little chalk-pit near 
Munn’s wood; M. falcata growing in the 
same pit, and M. sativa cultivated in the 
adjoining field).
