Bridge and Ermington.

Banks speaks of this as ' not common ; ' but it is certainly otherwise at 

 present. I think it as plentiful as hirsuta; the two often grow together. 

 First record : Banks, 1830. 



198. V. Cracca, L. Tufted Vetch. 



Native ; in hedges, bushy places, and sometimes in pastures and 

 grassy spots by roadsides. Very common. June to August. 

 Area general. 

 One of the most widely diffused species of the genus. 



199. V. sepium, L. Bush Vetch. 



Native ; on hedge-banks, and in bushy places. Very common. 



April to July ; and sometimes again sparingly m autumn. 



Area general. 



One of the most frequent species on the hedge-banks by the lanes, but 



not met with in the exposed open tracts. A variety with pure white or 



whitish flowers is rather frequent : seen near Botus Fleming (District 



II.) ; known for ten years near Honicknowle (iii.) ; noticed in different 



spots about Plympton (iv.) ; near Puslmch, and near Lynham. (v.) 



200. V. lutea, L. Bough-podded Yellow Vetch. 



Native ; on a coast cliff. Very rare. June, July, or later, 

 c. I. St. Germans Hut ; sp. Herh. Easton. ; also Keys, Fl. ii. 127. 

 Mr. Pascoe writes with refej-ence to this station : " Mr. Hore 

 . has added V. lutea ; " Fascoe in Fhyt. ii. 944. Collected m 

 that neighbourhood by Mr. W. B. Waterfall in 1877. 

 First record : Fascoe, 1847. 



201. V. sativa, L. Common Cultivated Vetch. 



Casual ; a stray from cultivation on hedge-banks, by roadsides, 

 and in fields. Very rare. 

 Generally found singly, and nowhere established. Probably only a 

 cultivated variety of the next species, V. angustifolia. As fields of 

 vetches are cut before seed is formed, and the roots are ploughed up 

 shortly after, there would seem to be little probabihty of the cultivated 

 vetch ever becoming naturalized. 



202. V. angustifolia, Both. Common Wild Vetch. 



Native ; on banks, cliffs, and gTassy waste spots. Common. 

 May to July, or later, 

 c. I. Cliff at Port Wrinkle. Between Caracawn Cross and Hessenford. 

 Near Tideford. Antony, some specimens with white flowers,
