The Flora of Glamovgan. 19 



Cardamine, Linn. 32. 



96. amara, Linn. Large Bittercress. 



There is a very doubtful record for this plant. In the supplement 

 to the 2nd edition of Topographical Botany, published in the 

 Journal of Botany for 1905, it is recorded on the authority of a 

 specimen in the Cardiff Museum. The specimen is a genuine 

 specimen of C. amara no doubt, and is labelled Pontypridd, July, 

 1877. Storrie Collection. Storrie, however, did not include this 

 interesting plant in the Flora of Cardiff published in 1886, and we 

 may therefore almost certainly conclude that he had doubts himself 

 about the record. 



97. pratensis, Linn. Ladies' Smock. Hydyf y waun. 

 Glamorgan name : — Esgidiau hosanau y gog. (Pron. 'Sgitsia- 



sana-gog.) 

 Common. Abundant. Native. Pratal and paludal. 



98. hirsuta, Linn. Hairy Bittercress. Hydyf blewog. 

 Common. Abundant. Native. Rupestral. 



99. flexuosa. With. 



This plant is not always distinguished from the preceding one, 

 although in Glamorgan the two species are always well defined. It 

 grows in damper, more shady places than C. hirsuta, is more robust and 

 flowers later. Common. Penylan ! Llandail', etc. J.S and T.H.T.

100. impatiens, Linn. Narrow-leaved Bittercress. 

 Rare. Probably scarce. Native. Rupestral. 



Gathered by Mr. Moggridge at Coed Cymmer near Merthyr 

 Tydfil. L.W. D.Mat, and G.T. Rare. Coed Cymmer. Quakers 

 Yard. J.S. There are no recent records for this interesting plant. 



Draba, Linn. 34. 



Nos. 105 and 107 have been recorded each by a single corres- 

 ponding member of the Committee, the first from Southerndown and 

 the second from near Wenvoe. The first may be a correct record, 

 but requires confirmation. The second is almost certainly erroneous. 



108. aizoides, Linn. 



Rare. Scarce. Native. Rupestral. 



Walls and inaccessible rocks about Pennard Castle, eight miles 

 west of Swansea. Dr. Turton. Frequent also on the rocks about 

 the Worms Head. B.G. " Was first noticed on the old walls of 

 Pennard Castle, by the late Mr. Lucas, of Stouthall, who communi- 

 cated his discovery to Dr. Coyte, of Ipswich. The plant was after- 

 wards shewn by Mr. Lucas to Dr. Turton, and the latter sent the 

 specimen to Sowerby, which has been figured in English Botany. 

 It grows also on most of the higher cliffs, and in many inaccessible 

 places along the coast from Pennard to Worms Head." L.W. D.Mat. 

 This note was first published by Gutch in the Phytologist. 1842. 

 pp. 105-6. It occurred in plenty on the walls and adjacent rocks
