JtIAVING fpent a conQderable proportion of the lafl: three years 

 at Dover, and preferved a hft of the plants which I found in its 

 neighbourhood, I fubmit to the Linnean Society the following fe- 

 lec^ion of thofe which, from their fcarcity or any other circumftance, 

 njore particularly attrafled my attention. I flatter myfelf it will 

 not be unacceptable to fuch botanifts as may vifit that part of the 

 kingdom, and that it may alfo ferve in fome meafuie to correcl the 

 habitats, given in fome refpeftable works, of a few plants which, if 

 not now extin£l in the places afligned to them, have at leafl eluded 

 a diligent fearch on my part. 



Higham Lodge, Feb. 16, 1801. 



Salicortiia herbacea, with ^f^r 7'ripolium, Eryngium niaritimum, and moil 



of the more common fea-fhore plants, in or about Sandwich fait 



marfties. 

 Veronica montana. In mod of the woods about Dover. 

 Valeriana rubra. On old walls of the Elms, where it has propagated 



itfelf for time immemorial, but is probably of garden origin.

a mile from ArchclifF Fort, and in many otlier places in the 



neighbourhood.
