4. Kennet. Downs above W. Woodhay. "Walls at Elcot, Reeks, iii 



Britt. Contr. 187 1 ; but these almost certainly belong to H. vul- 

 gatum or H. sciaphilum. 



5. Loddon. A few specimens of the true plant occurred about the 



racket courts, &c., of Wellington College in 1892, 

 H. miirorum is recorded for all the bordering counties except Bucks. 

 It occurs on College walls in Oxford as the var. peliucidum, Laest. 



H. vulg-atum, Fries, Nov. Fl. Suec. ed. 2, 258 (1828), ed. i, 76.

 First certain record. Sandhurst, the author in this Flora. 



1. Isis. Near Faringdon. Buckland. 



5. Loddon. In a few stations near Sandhurst. 



Under the name H. silvaticum. Mrs. Russell recorded in the Newbury 

 Cat. 1839, what was probably H. sciaphilum from Fence Wood and 

 Snelsmore Common. Probably to B. sciaphilum belongs Mr. Boswell's 

 'vuigatum' from Bagley Wood {Phyt. iv. (i860) 100), and his ' macii- 

 latum' from Buckland, as well as the vulgatum of Rev. C. W. Penny 

 from Finchampstead (see Journ. Bot. (1873 139). 



M. vulgatum is recorded for all the bordering counties ; but as in 

 (central England H. sciaphilum has so often been mistaken for it, the 

 occurrence of restricted H. vulgatum in these counties will have to be 

 verified. In Beck's Fl. Nieder-Osterreich, H. sciaphilum is made a form 

 of H. vulgatum, and I should be content to call it a variety.
