376 | ALDERNEY. 
Samolus Valerandi, L. Frequent in the cliff valleys; some- 
times at the foot of wet sea-cliffs, as at Clanque and Corbelets. 
PLUMBAGINACEAE. 
Statice occidentalis, Lloyd. On sea-shore rocks near Fort 
Houmet, but not in any great quantity. On the cliffs below the 
Hanging Rock. 
S. lychnidifolia, De Gir. Among rocks on the seacoast 
near Fort Houmet, growing in company with the last species: 
about a dozen plants discovered by Mr. C. Andrews in 1900. This 
species, which does not occur in the British Isles, is very like 
S. Limonium in general appearance, and might easily be passed over 
as that species. Corbiere notes it for many places in the Depart- 
ment of La Manche, and also for the Chausey Islands, so that its 
occurrence in Alderney is not very surprising. But at present it is 
not known to occur anywhere else in the Channel Islands. 
Armeria maritima, Willd. Very common on the coast. 
Flowers sometimes pure white. 
PLANTAGINACEAE. 
Plantago Coronopus, L. Very common in dry places. 
P. lanceolata, L. Abundant and very variable. I have 
noticed the three forms mentioned by Babington in AZ. Sarz., but 
they pass insensibly into each other, being chiefly dependent on 
soil and situation. 
P. major, L. Common in all parts. 
CHENOPODIACEAE. 
Salsola Kali, L. Frequent in the sandy bays. 
Chenopodium album, L. Very common. 
C. murale, L. Common in waste places and on rubbish 
heaps in all parts of the island. 
Beta maritima, L. Very common on the coast. 
Atriplex littoralis, L. Rare. Platte Saline. 
_ A. patula, L. Common. Var. angustifolia, Sm. Plentiful 
in cultivated ground. 
A. deltoidea, Bab. Common in cultivated and sandy ground. 
Var. salina, Bab. On the shore at Clanque Bay.
