288 CHENOPODIACE^. 



China Clay Works on Crownhill Down ; also in another spot on 

 this Down, wliich perhaps rather belongs to District v. The 

 place was dry when the plant was found at it in 1870, but 

 evidently water sometimes settles there. 

 I have seen this plant growing under water with the leaves quite 

 coated Avith the white deposit from the washings of the clay for manu- 

 facture. 



Fu'st record : Briggs, 1861.
