,1857.] SETTLE PLANTS. 17 



Polypodium vulgare. Walls, etc., common. 



Polypodium Phegopteris. Wood on the lower side of the road 

 opposite Cavehole Wood. In the Gill near Huntworth 

 House. Along with Polypodium Dryopteris opposite the 

 slate- quarries in Ilelk's Wood, near Ingleton. 



Polypodium Dryopteris. In the station mentioned above under 

 P. Phegopteris ; also in a wood opposite Helk's Wood. 



Polypodium calcareum. Loose stones near Attermire Cave (with 

 Lastrea rigida). East Field Wood, near Arncliffe. Gig- 

 gleswick Scar. Scar above Malham Tarn. I have in my 

 notes a mark of interrogation to this last habitat, but think 

 it correct. 



Lastrea Oreopteris. Kendal's Gill. Giggleswick. Cavehole 

 Wood. 



Lastrea rigida. In company with the late T. W. Simmonds 

 (and I am not certain whether it had not been previously 

 known to him and Wm. Kenyon), I found this plant first in 

 the year 1802, growing plentifully in the loose stones be- 

 tween Attermire Cave and the place where Epilobium angus- 

 tifolium was found growing, in the clefts of rocks a little to 

 the north of Attermire Cave. We were afterwards well ac- 

 quainted with this Fern, but L. rigida not being then enu- 

 merated amongst British plants, we misnamed it spinulosa. 

 About the year 1810 I showed specimens of it to Mr. 

 Sowerby, Sen., who said it was not spinulosa, of which he 

 gave me a specimen, but did not then seem to recognize it 

 as a new species. Perhaps it will therefore be admitted 

 that we were the first discoverers, although not the first 

 describers of this plant, which has been since found in other 

 localities of the district. 



Lastrea spinulosa. Lower part of Cavehole Wood, below the 

 road and Kendal's Gill, near Giggleswick. 



Lastrea Filix-mas. Not uncommon about Settle. 



Lastrea dilatata. Crags near Settle. Kendal's Gill, Giggles- 

 wick. Wood below Cavehole Wood, etc. 



Polystichum Lonchitis. (Limestone rocks between LangchfFe and 

 Malham Tarn, Mr. J. Howson, Jun.) 



Polystichum, aculeatum. With Lastrea rigida north of Attermire 

 Cave. Crevices of rocks above Gordale. In several places 

 about the foot of Ingleborough.
