290 CHENOrODIACEiE. 



689. C. olidum, Curt. Stinkhig Goosefoot. 



Denizen, probably ; in shady spots by walls and about roadsides 

 near houses. Very rare. Part of July to September. 



c. 11. At the foot of a wall, Torpoint, 1860, 1877, &c. 



D. III. Stoke Damerel; Phyt. v. N.S. 370. Specimen, Herb. Phjm. Inst., 

 Dr. Jacob; behind Tamar Terrace; Herb. Gould., August, 

 1851. Seen in that neighbourhood at different times ; a single 

 plant behmd Osborne Place, 1871 ; one or two, 1873 ; one at 

 the foot of a wall near the Rectory-house, 1877. 

 [lY. Tothill Lane, Plymouth ; Keys, Fl. iii. 205 ; rather Tothill Road 

 or Whitefriars Lane ; formerly here at the foot of the wall 

 bounding the grounds of Beaumont House, and opposite the 

 site of the old Friary buildmgs and gromids : not seen for 

 several years past. A single plant by a temporary road close 

 to 'workings' for a new railway line, between the lodge of 

 Beaumont House and Charles Place, Plymouth, very near the 

 old station of the plant, September, 1875.] 

 YI. One plant by a wall in front of a garden-plot at Ivybridge, 



October, 1879. 

 Perhaps derived from ancient cultivation for medicinal uses. Its 



appearance in District iv. is likely to have been due to the existence of 



the Friary there in ancient times. It was interesting to find the plant 



reappearing in the neighbourhood, m 1875, after the surface of the ground 



had been disturbed. 



590. C. album, L. White Goosefoot ; ^ LarnVs-tongue.^ 



Native or Colonist ; in cultivated ground, and in waste spots by 



roadsides, &c. Yery common. Part of July to November. 



Area general. 



An extremely connnon weed. Yery variable. We have the three 



varieties, a. candicans, b. viride, and c. paganum. I have no note of 



candicans for District i., or of viride for in., but doubtless each occurs 



in every District. 



591. C. murale, L. Nettle-leaved Goosefoot. 



Native or Colonist ; in cultivated ground, waste spots by roads 

 or footpaths, and in garden-plots. Rare and very local. July 

 to October. 



c. II. Neighbourhood of Torpoint ; m garden ground there at various 

 times ; in a field by the turnpike road, near Wilcove, 1876. 



D. III. Near Stoke Church, 1844 ; garden below Argaum Yillas, Stoke ; 

 Holmes, Keys, Fl. iii. 206 ; near the Orplian Asylum, 1879 ; 

 also elsewhere in that neighbourhood at other times. On turf 

 close to the entrance gates to Mount Wise, Devonport, 1871.
