Euonymus europseus is abundant in X. 



Is Ulex europceus as uncommon in other districts as in X ? It 

 is a calcifuge plant. 



Genista iinctoria occurs on the Stroud road, near Oakley 

 Park, (in X) and abundantly in a field between Kemble and 

 Pool Keynes, just over the county-boundary, i.e. in Wiltshire. 



Does Sarothamnus scoparius occur in the county. It chiefly, 

 I believe, frequents sand and gravel ; but I have not seen it 

 wild in X. 



Anthyllis Vulneraria seems rather local in X. 



Trifolium fragiferum occurs wild on the farm of the 

 Agricultural College. 



Vicia Cracea I have not noticed in X. 



Yicia sylvatica was found near the Tetbury Road Station, in 

 1875, by C. E. M. Eussell, Esq., of the Agricultural College. 



Vicia hithynica, a rare species is recorded from Gloucestershire 

 in the ' Cybele.' 



Lathyr^is Aphaca, I found at Little Coxwell Gravel-pit, near 

 Farringdon, Berkshire, not far from the boundary of XI. 



Geum rivale and Poterium Sanguisorba both occur in X. 



Lythrum Salicaria grows in the Cirencester Canal. 



Circcea lutetiana was brought to me from Hunter's Gate, 

 Oakley Park, by Mr. S. F. Elton. 



Among escapes, Ribes Grossularia is noticeable as being very 

 frequent in X, and Sedum dasyphyllum, as indicating, perhaps 

 the carrying power of water, being found by Mr. Elton at the 

 west mouth of the Sapperton Canal tunnel, by myself at 

 Thames Head Bridge, and by Professor Church abundantly on 

 walls at Down Ampney. 



Cotyledon umbilicus occurs just over the Wilts border of X, at 

 Ewen and Kemble, but I have not met with it within the county. 



Not having carried out my examination of the Cybele 

 Britannica beyond this point, I must for the remainder of my 

 list content myself for the present with recent observational 

 notes on a selection of species. 



Saxifraga tridactylites is abundant on walls in X and the 

 adjoining part of Wilts.
