Herbaceous perennial ; frequent in woods and the bor- 

 ders of fields throughout the greater part of Great Britain- 

 It has, however, not been found in Cambridgeshire, nor in 

 the three Northern divisions of Essex ; and it is doubtful 

 whether it has been found in Norfolk. As regards Suffolk, 

 one locality only has been given for it in H. & S. The Editor 

 has been resident for upwards of fourteen years on that spot, 

 and has looked for it in vain. There is, however, a specimen 

 in the late Mr. Skepper's Herbarium, with the authority 

 J. G-edf/e, no locality given. The plant is mentioned in the 

 journal of Sir J. Cullum, under the date May 3rd, 1776. It 

 is also given for West Suffolk in the Appendix to the Cybele 

 Britannica, but on the authority of -H. & S. We much fear 

 that there has been some mistake in regarding it as a native 

 of the County.
