84 CATALOGUE OF PLANTS 
st 
would be both a guide and a sample of such a work as is at pre- 
sent one of our botanical desiderata. 
(To be continued.) 

A Catalogue of certain Plants growing wild, chiefly in the envi- 
rons of Settle, in Yorkshire, observed by W. Curtis, in a Siw 
Weeks’ Botanical Excursion from London, made at the request 
of J. C. Lettsom, M.D., F.R.S., in the months of July and 
August, 1782. 
(Continued from page 39.) 
22. Asperula Cynanchica. Squinancywort. 
Rubeola vulgaris quadrifolia levis, floribus purpurantibus. 
Rati Syn. p. 225. 
On the limestone hills about Conzie, near Kendal. 
23. Galium montanum.—G. saxatile, Lin. Mountain Ladies’ 
Bedstraw. 
Mollugo montana minor Gallio albo similis. Rai Syn. 
Pp. 224. 
The most general plant on all the northern mountains. The 
summit of Ingleborough is principally covered with it and the 
Juncus squarrosus. 
24. Galium boreale. Cross-leaved Ladies’ Bedstraw. 
Mollugo montana erecta quadrifolia. Rai Syn. p. 224. 
Plentiful on the hills betwixt Kilnsay and Grass Wood, more 
especially among some rocks in Grass Wood. 
25. Alchemilla vulgaris. Common Ladies’ Manile. 
Alchimilla. Rati Syn. p. 158. 
There is scarce a pasture or moist bank in Yorkshire on which 
this pretty plant does not occur. [This is one of the commonest 
plants about Settle, especially about the sides of roads, which tra- 
verse the hills in all directions. ] 
26. Alchemilla alpina. Mountain Ladies’ Mantle. 
Alchimilla alpina pentaphyllos. Rati Syn. p. 158. 
This species, which far excels the other in beauty, is by no 
means so frequent. I first found it on a hill called Limestone 
Knot, in Longsledale, a place mentioned by Wilson in his ‘ Sy- 
nopsis ;’ further on m Longsledale, or, as it is there called, 
Longsleddel, on the high and romantic rocks about Buckbarrow 
Well, the botanist will find it in abundance.
