26 NOTES ON THE DORSET FLORA. 



disused Hamworthy Station. Mr. Lester Garland reports it from 

 the mouth of Lytchett Bay. Alriplex pa tula, L., and var. 

 attgusfifolicr, Sm., and A. hastala, L., Edmondsham. Salicornia 

 herbacea, L., var. stricta, Dum., Parkstone. G. Mouth of Corfe 

 River. Var. procrimbenx, Moq., Parkstone. D. Marsh near 

 Hamworthy (disused) Station ; Lytchett Bay. 6". appressa, Dum. 

 D. Shore of Poole Harbour, W. of Lytchett Bay. 6". radicals, 

 Sm. (for which S. frulicosa, Linn., stands in the Flora, by a slip 

 of the pen, I suppose). G. Is the locality " shore near Ouse," 

 also a slip ? possibly for Arne, or more likely for Owre. Between 

 these two I found it by the mouth of the Corfe River in 1897. 



Polygonum Bistorta, L., growing in nice quantity in a moist 

 meadow, Edmondsham. Fagopyrum escnlentum, Moench, casual, 

 Branksome ; relic of cultivation (for pheasant food), Goatham. 

 Rumex pulcher, L., waste ground at the back of the stables, 

 Edmondsham House ; Blandford towards Pimperne. G. 

 Kingston to Chapman's Pool. R. crisptis, L., var. triganulalus, a 

 form with three more or less equal tubercles on the sepals ; 

 Parkstone, on the shore by Poole Park. R. crispus x oblusifolius 

 (R, acu/us, L.), near Broadstone. 



Daphne Mezereum, L. All the records but one in the Flora are 

 old notices of Pulteney. The Badbury plant which Mr. Bell 

 reported to me (Flora of Bournemouth, p. 191), proved to be 

 something else. Does this species survive in Dorset outside 

 gardens ? D. Lanreola, L., hedgerows and Creech Hill 

 Copse, near Cranborne. Viscum album, L., very fine and 

 abundant in the grounds of Edmondsham Rectory on 

 apple, thorn, lime, and Black Poplar, and of Edmondsham 

 House on lime ; in plenty between St. Giles' House 

 and St. Giles' Church ; on Black Poplars along the 

 road from Cranborne to Handley. These localities may be 

 included in Cranborne Chase of the Flora, which was more 

 extensive in former days. E. The only spot where I saw 

 mistletoe in the restricted Cranborne Chase of the present day 

 was in Stubhampton Bottom on a large maple tree on the stem 

 and branches of which the epiphyte had spread by suckers,
