26 INTRODUCTION. 



enumeration given above differs slightly from tliat recorded in 

 the Transactions of the Society, and supersedes it. 



The progressive aspect of the Club's efforts will be shown 

 by a mention of the species which it has been enabled to add 

 to the Floras of Norfolk and Suffolk. The list of Norfolk 

 plants, with additions published yearly, is already approxi- 

 mately complete, under the direction of a friend interested 

 in the Club, Mr. H. D. Geldart of Norwich. The Suffolk 

 Flora is very imperfect, so far as the present published records 

 are concerned. Even Britten's list of Suffolk plants (1874) 

 admits a great many additions from the Harleston list, but it 

 has been considered hardly just to base calculations on accounts 

 so defective. The Rev. W. M. Hind, LL.D., of Honington, 

 near Bury, has prepared for immediate publication a new 

 Flora of the county. The manuscript of the present list has 

 therefore been submitted to him, and, in addition to several 

 records of plants collected by Dr. Hind himself, the writer 

 has received a statement of those of which the Club furnishes 

 the first information. By this means it is hoped no undue 

 credit is gained.

C. -FLORAL CHARACTERISTICS, 



Under this title an attempt has been made to show, by 

 comparison with other Floras, some of the peculiarities of the 

 botany of Harleston. In so small an area it is hardly possible 

 that great divergencies can exist, but the eastern position of 

 the district, its situation on the sands and clays of the Drift, 

 and its proximity to the sea-coast, give to it a character 

 interesting if not unique.
