 continues there, as is jDrohable, but it certainly has no claim to be 

 considered as native." Flora of CiimhmUjcshire, 44. " The drawing for 

 E. B. was made from a plant growing in Haughley woods, Norfolk, the 

 locality where H. elation was found." E. D., cd. 3., i/., 146. In Lan- 

 cashire, it occurs "in great abundance and luxuriance, sometimes attaining 

 the height of from four to five feet, amongst thickets of brambles, &c., in 

 the old lane by Ince Blundell [near Liverpool ] There is no trace of its 

 having escaped from cultivation." George Kirk, in Fhyt. ii\, l4f>, ^^S. 

 I have a specimen labelled " near Liverpool," perhaps from the same 

 locality. It "has been observed in Yorkshire, near Settle." H. B. P.,

 "I have a specimen labelled by the late Professor Graham — '//. 

 Androsamum, from a neglected shrubbery at Touch.' " Cyb., Hi, S'^^O. It 

 is supposed to have occurred in Ireland, on the banks of the Glanmirft 

 river, whence it was recorded as H. anglicum. See the preceding species, 

 p. 357.

 of a hedge near the wood of Aberdalgy, in Strath Earn,' Perthshire. No 

 other botanist having met with examples, we cannot suppose this easily- 

 seen species to have been either native or naturalised in this one locality, 

 and in which it is now probably extinct." Cyh. i., 254.

E. malacoides, D.C. Mr. Hobkirk has kindly iVivoured me with a 

 specimen of this plant, which he collected in 1858, on a " shoddy heap,"
