of Chrysosplenium oppositifolium ; and by another near it, Cardamine 

 amara. 



At the back of Brook's hall, near Ipswich, is a hilly broom-field : 

 here I found Orobanche major, which has maintained this station for 

 a great number of years ; it was, however, in very small quantity this 

 year. I have not seen it elsewhere near Ipswich, though the broom, 

 on which it commonly fixes its roots, is very abundant on Stoke-hill, 

 near Greenwich-farm, Cauldwell-hall, &c. In the meadow behind 

 Brook's hall grows Epilobium palustre, and in the pond in its front I 

 used to find a Ceratophyllum, I suppose demersum, but this year it 

 was not to be seen. Near this spot is a lane which leads by the Suf- 

 folk hospital and back of the barracks to the top of Globe-lane and in 

 which I found Geranium pyrenaicum and Smyrnium Olusatrum in 

 great abundance. Gagea lutea, a very rare plant in this part of Eng- 

 land, I believe, may be found in Waller's grove, a copse on the left 

 hand side of the London road, about a mile from Ipswich, on that side 

 of the copse which faces Stoke-hills. 



Botany being only a secondary object with me in this trip, I was 

 unable to devote so much time to it as I could have wished, and could 

 only spare one day to a search for plants at Felixtow and its neigh- 

 bourhood. I found nothing more than I have recorded in my last 

 account, excepting a Poa, which was growing in moderate plenty on 

 the sands which form the point of Harwich-harbour by Landguard- 

 fort ; it appears to me to be P. bulbosa, though it diifers in one or two 

 points. 



During my stay at Ipswich, I had the opportunity of looking over 

 the herbarium of a friend and relative, Mr. John Notcutt, now de- 

 ceased. He had resided for a long time in Ipswich ; and being an 

 ardent lover of Botany, had formed an intimate acquaintance with the 

 plants of the neighbourhood, of which his collection consisted, for 

 there appeared to be scarcely a specimen from any other place. 

 Thinking a notice of some of the localities might be interesting, I 

 transcribe those of a few specimens which were given me by the gen- 

 tleman in whose hands the collection now is. With the exception of 

 the two last, they are all in the immediate vicinity of Ipswich. 



Pulmonaria angustifolia. Between Whitton and Bramford. I 

 carefully examined this station without being able to detect the plant; 

 but as the distance between the two villages is a mile or a mile and a 

 half, and the plant was probably past flowering, it might easily have 

 been overlooked. I possess the specimen, which was gathered in 1818. 



Samhucus Ebulus. In the hedge at the N.E. corner of the second
