The Breck district in the N.W. division, though distant from the 

 coast, has a partially maritime Flora, the undoubted remnant of its 

 former connection with the sea by the Wash. The following plants occur : 

 Sayina ciliata] Vicia lutea ; Tillcea muscosa ; Erythrcea littoralis] Rumex 

 maritimus ; Carex arenaria ; Phleum arenarium and Corynephorus 

 canescens. 



The Breck district includes several tracts of chalky soil, causing a 

 more varied Flora ; arid there are other portions of the N.W. district 

 which partake of the characteristics of both soils, the land being light 

 with a considerable admixture of chalk, varying more or less in the 

 different localities. The following list includes the rarer plants of the 

 drier soils of the N.W. division : TJialictrum minus ; Anemone Pulsatilla ; 

 Papaver hybridum ; Fumaria densiflora ; F.parviflora; F.Vaillantii\ 

 Teesdalia nudicaulis ; Dianthus deltoides ; Silene Otites ; S. conica ;
