Veronica scutellata. Iu spongy, turfy bogs, in wet meadows, on 

 damp heaths, and by the sides of pools and ditches. Quite rare in 

 the Jsle of Wight. On deep spongy bog with Vaccinium Oxycoccos 

 in the valley of the Medina, in meadows betwixt Stroud Green and 

 Cridmore, 1838. Amongst long grass in a swampy pool near Hamp- 

 stead farm. Edge of a pool on a common called Goldens, in the pa- 

 rish of Freshwater. Apparently not unfrequent in mainland Hants. 

 On Petersfield Heath. Brockenhurst Bridge. On Wolraer Forest. 

 New Forest, in the neighbourhood of Stoney Cross ; Mr. J. Hussey 

 in litt. Droxford Forest; Rev. E. M. Sladen. 



Anagallis. In ponds, ditches, slow streams, and muddy, 



watery spots ; more frequent in the Isle of Wight than the last, though 

 not very common. In marsh ditches at Easton, Freshwater Gate, 

 sparingly. On Schoolhouse Green, Freshwater. In the moat at 

 Wolverton, by Shorwell, in plenty. Common in watery places at 

 Brixton or Brightstone. By the mill at Lower Knighton, and else- 

 where about Newchurch. Near Carisbrook, St. Lawrence &c. Wet 

 places near Ryde and at Brading; Mr. Wm. Wilson Saunders. Ge-

 plant so common as this is in the south of England. Broad Mea- 

 dows, Warnford; Rev. E. M. Sladen. Stubbington, Titchfield river; 

 Mr. W. L. Notcutt. 



Beccabunga. In and on the margins of clear shallow 



brooks, ditches, pools, springheads and muddy plashes ; everywhere 

 throughout the county and Isle of Wight, most abundantly. A va- 

 riety with white flowers I found, May 25, 1848, in a pond betwixt 

 Froxfield and Privet, near Petersfield. 



Chamcedrys. In woods, groves, meadows, pastures, 



hedges, and grassy, shady situations, as orchards &c. ; universally 

 over the county and island. Var. /S. Leaves all shortly stalked, upper 

 ones ovate-oblong, acute. In the lane or road leading to Haven 

 Street through Firestone Copse, on the hedge-bank a little beyond 

 the farm at Kite Hill ; Mr. Thos. Meehan, jun., Oct. 1845 ! Var. y.
