Lapsana.} SYNGENESIA — ^OUALIS. 295 



Rocks in the Highlands, not uncommon, G. Don. Fl. Aug. If. — I 

 have never seen a native specimen, except the one for which I am in- 

 debted to 3Ir D. Don ; it, however, quite agrees with Gouau's original 

 Pjrenean ones. Flowers large, handsome. 



9. H.^amplexicdule, L. (^amplexicaul Haivkioeed); glanduloso- 

 pilose, stem corymbose, leaves toothed, radical ones oblongo- 

 ovate petiolate, cauline ones cordate at the base amplexicaul. 

 Hook, in E. Bot. Svppl. t. 2690. 



Walls of the Castle of Cleish, Kinross-shire. Clova mountains. On 

 the walls of the Oxford Bot. Garden, Mr Bicheno. Fl. Aug. If. — A 

 most distinct and well-marked species, every where clothed with brownish 

 glandular hairs, most dense on the jjeduncle and involucre. The lower 

 cauline leaves are more or less oblong, the upper ones are truly cordate. 



\Q. H. detiticuldticm, ^n\. (^small-toothed Haivkweed) ; "stem 

 erect leafy solid many-flowered cymose with downy glandular 

 stalks, leaves sessile elliptic-lanceolate finely toothed nearly gla- 

 brous glaucous beneath." E. Bot. t. 212. — H. prenanthoides, 

 Sm. Fl. Br. p. 835. (not Vill.) 



Woods at Loch Rannoch, Perthshire : near Selkirk; and Findhorn, 

 Elgin. Fl. July, Aug. 1/. — Is this really distinct from the following ? 



\\. Yl. prena7ithoides, WW. (rough-bordered Haiokweed); stem 

 erect leafy simple hairy, panicle corymbose with hispid and 

 glandular stalks, leaves oblong cordate and amplexicaul at the 

 base, upper ones gradually smaller and ovato-cordate acuminate, 

 all glaucous beneath and remotely toothed. E. Bot. t. 2235. 



River-sides in Scotland ; but rare. Banks of the Esk ; near Pitmain ; 

 in Glen Lyon, and banks of the Don, in Braemar. Fl. Aug. If. — 3 — 

 4 feet high, the leaves all cordate at the base, and remarkably amplex- 

 icaul, gradually smaller upwards. Involucre with black glandular hairs. 



12. H. Sabaudmn, L. ? (shrubby broad-leaved Haiokiveed); stem 

 erect copiously leafy mostly hairy, branches subcorymbose, leaves 

 ovato-lanceolate slightly hairy toothed the lower ones tapering 

 into a short petiole, involucre slightly hairy and as well as the 

 peduncles destitute of glands. E. Bot. t. 349. (an L. ?) — H. bore- 

 ale, Fries. — H. sylvestre, Tutisch. 



Coppices, groves, thickets and walls ; frequent. Fl. Aug. Sept. If. 

 — Smith's figure of this plant is surely not characteristic of the true H. 

 Sabaudum. It is indeed the H. boreale of Fries, and scarcely differs from 

 some states oi H. prenanthoides, except in the absence of glandular hairs 

 on the involucre and peduncles. 



13. H. umbelldtum, L. (^narrow-leaved Haivhtveed); stem erect 

 simple rigid very leafy, leaves lanceolate or linear-lanceolate sub- 

 glabrous slightly toothed, flowers subumbellate, peduncles downy, 

 involucres glabrous. E. Bot. t. 1771. — ;S. leaves broader. 



Groves, or stony and rocky places. — /3. Dunkerran, Co. Kerry. Dr 

 Taylor, who sends it as H. Steinbergii. Fl. Aug. Sept. If. — The 

 most decidedly marked of any individual in this troublesome genus. 



13. Lapsana. Linn. Nipple-wort. 

 1. L. commwiis, L. (common Nipple-xvoi't); involucre of the
