Tyn-y-groes, N. Wales, c. fr. (Holt Dec., 1885) ! ! Lodore, c. fr. (Binsiead Dec., 1889) ! 

 growing intermixed with T. tamariscifolium. 



This plant has now been found in various parts of France, Switzerland, 

 Austria, Germany and Scandinavia ; and indeed was found first in Germany 

 by Roth in 1798. Its identity was first determined by Lindberg on male 

 specimens collected in the island of Hogland. In America it takes the place 

 of our T. tamariscifolium.
