34 PLANTS OF DOVER, WALMER, [February, 



ALISMACEjE. 



Alisma Plant ago. 



LILIACEiE. 



AgrapMs nutans. Abundant in all the copses. — We also found 

 a variety with pure white flowers, a more delicate plant than the 

 common Bluebell. 



Allium ursinum. Plantation at Kersney Abbey. — This I found 

 in May 1849, but was unable to ascertain if it still grew there, 

 as the grounds are now closed to visitors. 



ASPARAGACEiE. 



Convallaria maialis. Westwood, about sixteen miles from 

 Dover. — For this locality I cannot vouch, not having been able 

 to get so far. A basketful of the plants was brought to us for 

 sale by a decent old peasant woman, who, in answer to our in- 

 quiry as to where she had obtained them, named Westwood, as- 

 suring us that they grew there in abundance. 



TRILLIACE^. 



Paris quadrifolia. Combe Wood and plantations at Walder- 

 share. Often with five, and occasionally with six leaves. 



ORCHIDACE^. 



Orchis ustulata. East Clifi", near the Cornhill C. G. station 

 (June) . 



Orchis fusca. Combe Wood (June 8th). 



Orchis Morio. Meadows. 



Orchis {Anacamptis, Rich.) pyramidalis. On chalk downs. 



Gymnadenia conopsea, Rich. Also on sunny chalk downs, with 

 the last-named.

Ophrys muscifera (My odes). Small plantations to the right 

 of Waldershare church. 



Ophrys apifera. Shakspeare's Clifl' (July) . 



Ophrys aranifera. Exceedingly plentiful on Shakspeare's 

 CliflP, and still more so on the waste ground near the railroad at 

 the bottom of the steps cut in the side of the cliff*, beyond the
