Lonicera.'] PENTANURIA — MONOGYNIA. 103 



In dry, principally chalky and clayey pastures, England. Hilly pas- 

 tures in Scotland; but coniined, I believe, to the east side, between the 

 Firth of Forth and Montrose. Fl. July, Aug-. 11. — Varying much in 

 height, from 3 or 4 inches to a foot. Flowers rather large, erect. Many 

 slight varieties of this plant are considered as species by the continental 

 Botanists.

 form, leaves all stalked cordate angulato-dentate glabrous. E»

In moist shady woods, in the south of England, and the west of Scot- 

 land ; Wales, and Ireland. /'7. July, Aug. 11. — A most graceful little 

 plant, growing in lax tufts like Sihtkorpia Europcea. Feduncles long, 

 slender, mostly terminal. Flowers half an incli or more in length, at 

 first droo])iiig, then erect ; pale purphsh-blue. Fruit, which 1 have on 

 beautiful specimens communicated to me by Mr W. Wilson, from North. 

 Wales, an almost globose capsule, fths adlieringto the calyx, opening, 

 not at the sides, but in the upper free part, between the persistent seg- 

 ments of the calyx. Tliis is included in the genus Wuhlenbergia of 

 Schrader. But it has not tlie habit of the other Wahlenbergia;, which are, 

 as M. Alphonse de Candolle observed to me, all natives of the south- 

 ern hemisphere.
