Dr Graham's List of new or rare British Plants. 349 



sides of the lake, and that there is not any near the plant, except where 

 the cottagers have raised a few vegetables. The specimens which Mr 

 Thomson has been good enough to give me, are very like such as would 

 be produced in a natural situation. 



Helminthia echioides Sideofpath between Roslin and Lasswade, Mr James 



Macaulay found thij plant here last July. I cannot help suspecting that 

 it may have been introduced. If otherwise, it is the only Scotch station. 



Hieraciura moUe. — Near Inverkeithing. Rev. A. Robertson. 1 have not seen 

 any specimen, and insert this species on the authority of Mr Campbell. 



Iberis amara. — Iiichcolm. 



Iris foetidissima Near the Pentland Hills. Mr Graves. Fordel Woods. 



Rev. A. Robertson. I have not seen either station, but I doubt whether 

 they entitle us to place the plant in the Flora Scotica. 



Juncus maritimus Near West Tarbet, Galloway. Mr G. Macnab, who 



observed it there last year. "We found it in the same spot this season. 



Lamium maculatum Wood on the estate of Camock. Dr Dewar, who 



thinks the situation a good one. I have not seen it. 



Lamium rugosum Banks of the Esk, towards jNIusselburgh. Wood near 



Torry. Dr Dewar. In the former station I found it some years ago, 

 and suspected it had probably been introduced. I have not seen the 

 latter station, but Dr Dewar thinks the plant wild. 



Lepidium ruderale Fields near St David's. Rev. A. Robertson. I have 



not seen the station, but should be afraid to consider any scarce plant 

 wild near that infected district. 



Lysimachia nummularia — Side of a cornfield, Slateford. Mr Thomson. I 

 have not seen this plant wild in Scotland, and consider the above station 

 too near tainted ground to be relied upon. Mr Mackay told me it is 

 common near Dublin : I did not see it. 



Lysimachia thyrsiflora Canal between Edinburgh and Glasgow, in many 



places very abundant. 



INIedicago maculata Donibristle Park. Coast between Donihristle and Aber. 



dour, very abundant. In both these stations, this plant, new to the Flora 

 Scotica, was first observed by the Rev. A. Robertson. In the former, 

 I certainlv believed it had been introduced with grass seeds, but in the 

 latter, which I have not seen, it is believed to be truly wild. 



Mentha gentilis Banks of Esk below Hawthorndean,Tp,\entihi\. Mr Campbell. 



IVIentha Piperita Sides of a stream, the origin of the Brothwick, near a spring 



called Nine Wells, about six miles from Arbroath, " abundant, and un- 

 doubtedly wild." Mr G. Macnab. 



Ononis ramosissima Rubbish heaps -near St David's. Rev. A. Robertson. 



Certainly introduced with ballast. Found in flower in autumn 1834, 

 but has disappeared since. 



Ononis reclinata Among the debris at the foot of the cliff overhanging the 



rocky sh<yre on the went side of the Mull of Galloway. I found this plant 

 on the 5th of August, both in flower and in fruit, and growing u abun- 

 dance for some distance in the station described. Ballast is here out of 

 the question. No vessel ever left ballast on that iron bound coast with, 

 out leaving her ribs also. It is undoubtedly wild.
