 type. Eange 1-2-3.

 the hollow, west of Buxton, Rogers; Coombe's Moss, Buxton! 



III. Very rare. It occurred in very small quantity in a 

 roadside ditch between Calke and Melbourne, evidently as a 

 remnant of the ancient vegetation of Melbourne Common, 

 which the road in question there crosses. The drainage of 

 the ground, which slopes downward to the road, had doubt- 

 less brought with it this plant. Unfortunately it was 

 destroyed by the trampling of the animals which used to 

 drink at the spot, and it did not reappear. R. Lenormandi is 

 especially a moorland species, making its appearance where 

 wet and spongy places occur, or in the shallow ditches of the 

 imperfectly reclaimed moors of Derbyshire and Staffordshire. 

 In a mild winter it will often be in full flower in December 

 or January. I have not observed the same thing in E. 

 hederaceus. Purchas, J. B.
