PAPAVERACES. 107 
that of F. pallidiflora is cream-colour. The pedicels after flowering 
are occasionally slightly recurved, and by the time the fruit is ripe 
their direction becomes patent or divaricate; while in all the speci- 
mens of F. pallidiflora which I have seen, the pedicels are recurved 
at the base nearly in a semicircle, and then straight at the apex, 
so that the axis of the fruit is parallel to the rachis of the raceme 
in a reversed position. The fruit is shorter in proportion than in 
F. pallidiflora, and taken without the neck is actually broader than 
long. The neck of the fruit is, however, very similar. This is the 
only one of the Capreolatee of which I have seen British specimens 
in a growing state.

Sepals ovate, acute, about one-third the length of the tube 
of the corolla, and nearly equal to it in breadth. Corolla pale 
pink tinged with green, tipped with dark purple. Fruit pedicels 
ascending - patent. Fruit slightly rugose when dry, roundish, 
compressed, a little longer than broad, rounded at the apex where 
there are two rather broad shallow pits. Neck of the fruit broader 
than the enlarged apex of the pedicel. 
A weed in cultivated ground and in hedges. Probably gene- 
rally distributed. 
Professor Babington gives the following localities :—“ Jersey 
and Guernsey; Zennor and Trevenna, Cornwall; Ilfracombe, 
Devon; Tenby, Pembrokeshire; Aberystwith, Cardiganshire; 
Bangor, Carnarvonshire; Hawkhead, Lancashire; and Dublin.” 
And I also observed in his Herbarium, specimens from Carisbrook 
Castle, in the Isle of Wight, and I possess one from Cheshire.
