FfrORA OF THE BBISTOL COAL-FIELD. 151 



Pyrus torminalis, Sin. in Gloucestershire. A small tree 

 grows on the face of a low cliff on the Pennant near 

 the second mill in Glen Frome, Stapleton ; a situation 

 where it could not have heen planted. See p. 67. 



(Enothera odorata, Jacq. west of Brean Down. On 

 Sept. 5, 1883, we saw one plant on the sands at 

 Berrow, S. See p. 70. 



(Antennaria margaritacea, R. Br. Found by Mr. D. Fry, 

 Nov., 1883, growing on the edge of a wood at Walton-

(C. melitensis, L. There was another station for this 

 alien in 1883 : on dredgings in the Black Rock 

 Quarry, G. See p. 106.) 



488.* Crepis biennis, L. 



" Colonist. In a small field near Axbridge, S. ; likely to

 to our knowledge of the district flora. The dis- 

 coverer, Mr. R. Baker, of Clevedon, gave us a fresh 

 specimen with the following note : " I observed it on
