Spiraea Filipendula in Upper Airedale. — About the beginning of Sep- 

 tember my attention was drawn by Miss Tranter, of Gargrave, to some plants 

 which she had gathered near Eshton. Among them I found Spinea Filipendula 

 and Eupatorhun cannabinum ; the former grows rather plentifully in pastures on 

 Scarnber, a hill near Eshton, and is a new record for the Aire drainage district ; 

 the latter occurs in a wood near Winterburn, in which Carduus heterophyllus and 

 Polypodium Phegopteris are also to be found. In a field near St. Helen's Well at 

 Eshton, Parnassia palustris and GentianaAmarella were found growing in profusion. 



In Wharfedale in 1885, I gathered Spircea Filipendula at the bottom of Dibb 

 Scar near Grassington, and Polemonuim car-uleum, Draba incana, and TJialictruvi 

 minus var. montanum on the sides of the Scar. 



The above are all new localities for the plants mentioned. — T.W. Edmondson, 

 Pembroke College, Cambridge, October 14th, 1889. 



Mosses at Robin Hood's Bay. — I have two additions to make to the list 

 given in Naturalist, August 1888. 



Grimmia decipiens Lindb. (Braith wake's Moss Flora) [ = Grimmia schtdtzii 

 (Wils. Bry. Brit.)) is recorded from Robin Hood's Bay, where it was gathered by 

 Mr. George Massee. 



Bryitm alpinuvi L. var. vicridionale Schmp. was gathered at the base of the 

 Peak Cliff in September 1888, and is the first record for this variety in North 

 Yorkshire. The only other locality recorded for it in Britain, so far as I am 

 aware, is from maritime rocks at Penzance, West Cornwall, where it was collected 

 by the late Mr. Curnow. — M. B. Slater, Malton, July 1889. 



NOTE— MAMMALIA . 



Seal at Flamborough. — On the 4th October we gave chase to a Seal; it was 

 a very exciting chase indeed ; I got one shot at him, but he, being a very large and 

 lively example, escaped. — Matthew Bailey, Flamborough, October 7t h, 1889.
