Many of the plants here mentioned are found also by roadsides, &c., 

 hut less abundantly than in ploughed land. Some of them can scarcely 

 be termed wild, as they are only kept up by sowing repeated from year 

 to year. 



About one -eighth of the whole Isle of Wight species come more or 

 less strictly under the definition of colonists. Several of them do not 

 occur in the Undercliff; among such the absence of Bupleurum 

 rotundifolium, and apparently of Calamintha Acinos, is most re- 

 markable. 



The localities in the Undercliff best worth a botanist's visit are 

 Luccombe, where Vicia sylvatica will be found in the copse above Luc- 

 <:ombe Farm, and Inula Helenium occurs a little to the north of the 

 Chine ; Bromus erectus and Papaver Lecoquii above Rose Cottage ;
