tundifolia is to be seen near Taaswell, and is common about Mon- 

 mouth. Calamintha Nepeta at Caerphylly. Leonurus cardiaca abun- 

 dantly at Kenfig. Atriplex Babingtonii on Sully Island and on the 

 coast by Barry Island. Empetrum nigrum near Pont-nedd-vechan. 

 Euphorbia stricta at Tintern. Scirpus Savii on the sands at Oxwich 

 and Porth Cawl, on the hills at Cefn Bryn, and Pont-nedd-vechan. 

 Carex laevigata near Oystermouth. Gastridium lendigerum at Pennarth. 

 Agrostis setacea on Cefn Bryn and on Newton Down. Festuca uni- 

 glumis on the sand-hills in several places. 



The botanist in Glamorganshire will look in vain for many plants 

 which are found in similar situations in Yorkshire. Here is noTri- 

 mula farinosa, no Geranium sylvaticum, and the Sesleria caerulea 

 so abundant on the limestone of Yorkshire and Westmorland, and 

 which reappears on the chalk hills of Rouen, refuses to grow on the 

 limestones of South Wales, as well as on the downs of Sussex.

Carex Bcenning hanseniana.* On the margins of little shadedpools, 

 in woods and thickets, chiefly on a clay soil, very rare ? In Quarr 

 Wood, near its western extremity, and on the sea-side of the main 

 path among the thick brushwood, principally by the little pools or 

 plashes in the hollow part of the copse, not far from the shore, in great 

 plenty, June 15, 1843. Taken when first gathered for the following 

 species, but pronounced on very competent authority to belong to the 

 present. I must candidly own to feeling great difficulty in rightlv 

 understanding the difference betwixt these two alleged species, and 

 have now lost the slight clew I once thought I possessed to distin- 

 guish them apart and on paper. The very limited time left me before 

 taking my departure for the East, precludes me from entering on the 



* Named after C. M. F. von Bonninghausen, author of the ' Prodromus Flora? 

 Monasteriensis,' 1824 ; the spelling ought therefore to be as above, not Boenninghau- 

 siana, as it is frequently written.
