ERICACEAE. 117 



ERICACE^. 



(Andromeda poUfolia, L., has been included in a pub- 

 lished list of Mendip plants, but in error. No specimen 

 exists. We have seen it from the peat of Shapwick 

 Moor, just south of the district.) 



CALLUNA, L. 



501. C. vulgaris, Scdisb. Umj. 



Native ; on heaths, and commons, very common. 

 We have frequently noticed it with white flowers on Yate 

 Common, G. VI.— VIII. 



ERICA, L. 



502. E. Tetralix, L. 



Native; on damp and boggy heaths and commons. 

 Rather rare, and local. 



G. Durdham Down; Stapleton ; Sivcte, FI. 5S. Durd- 

 ham Down, June 10, 1868; Rev. W. W, Spicer. 

 Formerly on Durdham Down ; Mr. T. B, Flower. 



S. Plentiful on Black Down, where the white flowered 

 variety is rather frequent. Bog on Mendip near 

 Priddy. Near Wells. Leigh Wocd. Mr. T. B. 

 Flower. 



We cannot now find this heath on Durdham Down, or in 

 Leigh Wood. Building operations and other encroach- 

 ments must have long since destroyed it in the immediate 

 neighbourhood of Bristol. VII. VIII. 



503. E. cinerea, L. 



Native ; on dry commons and heaths, common. 



We have seen it with white flowers on Black Down, S. 



VII. VIII. 

 (E. vacjans, L. Planted on Court Hill, Clevedon ; with 

 Cotoneaster, &c.)
