UMBELLIFER^ 8/ 



tjhaerophyllum aromaticum, L. A native of 

 iTieadows and woods in the mountainous districts of 

 Central and Southern Europe. It was recorded as a 

 native of Scotland by Don, but, in the absence of con- 

 firmatory records, the weight of geographical evidence 

 makes it necessary to regard it in Don's station as an 

 introduction or as a wrong determination. 



Chaerophyllum aureum, L. A native of mountain 

 pastures in Central and Southern Europe. Recorded 

 from Scotland by Don, and to be judged on the same 

 lines as Chcerophyllum aromaticum. 



[Conium maculatum, L. Native in Britain in open 

 woods, but much more commonly recorded along hedge- 

 banks, in waste places, and other artificial habitats. 

 In the rest of Europe, as in Britain, it is on rare 

 occasions recorded from natural habitats, but, just as 

 in Britain it is much more common as a native than 

 would be supposed from these scattered records, so 

 also in the rest of Europe it is probably a fairly common 

 native, but generally overlooked in its natural habitats, 

 being so much more commonly seen in artificial ones.] 



Coriandrum sativum, L. A weed of cultivated fields 

 in Southern Europe and the East, and occasionally 

 reported among grain introductions in different parts 

 of England. In a few instances its occurrence seems 

 to be due to cultivation. 



Daucus grandiflorus, Scop. Native of Southern 

 Europe. A common weed of arable land in some parts 

 of Europe. Mentioned by Mr. Davey as a casual in 

 Cornwall. Probably introduced with grain.
