List of Spontaneous Vascular Plants, liitlierto observed in Cyprus. 113 



Dry, unfertile ground in the eastern part of the Messaria. Between Trikomo and Synkrasi 

 (Gaudry). Paralimni, abundant, flowering- in September (JH 1164). On sand-dunes between Salamis and 

 Trikomo (JH 469— my specimens from this locality are too young to be determined with absolute security, 

 but still seem to appertain to this species). At first indicated for the island by Clarke. 



Note. Vicia sepiut)i L. is indii/ateil from the. island liy Siethorp (Prodr. II, 7.S), prol)alily by mistake. 



Vicia hyhrida L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 7.37 (175.3); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, .^70. 



Not rare in fields in lower regions, often together with cereals. Hap. Napa (JH 72). 



V. sericocarpa Fenzl, Puyill. plant, nov. Syr.. 4 (1842); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 570; Kotscliy, (Jypern, 386; Thomps. 

 Fl. (;ypr. 307. 



Cultivated fields in lower regions. Collected in various places by Kotschy. Hag. Napa (JH 74). 



V. sativa L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 736 (1753); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 574; Kotschy, Cypern, 385. 



Is cultivated on a large scale in the Messaria, and is also frequently met with as a weed amongst 

 the cereals. Kalavaso, on the bords of the river (JH 634). 



V. angustifolia Roth, Tent. I, 310 (1788); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 574. F. mrdata Wulf. ex Hoppe in Sturm, 

 Dentschl. Fl. I, fasc. 32 (1812); Sinteuis in Oe. B. Z. XXXI, 392. 

 Fields near Kythraea, according to Sintenis. 



V. latbyroides L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 736 (1753); Sihth. et Smith, Prodr. II. 71; Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 575; Kotschy, 

 Cypern, 386. 



In Cyprus found only by Sibthorp. 



V. peregrina L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 737 (1753); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 576. 



In cultivated fields. Cyprus, without exact indication of locality (Kotschy, according to Boissier, 

 not mentioned in the list of Kotschy). Phaneromene near Larnaka (JH 135). 



V. Michauxii Spreng, in Willd. Enum. plant. 764 (1809); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 577. 7. carnea Kotschy in Unger 

 et Kotschy, (Jypern, 386 (1865), teste Boiss. 



Fields. Near Chrysorogiatissa (UK). 



F. narhonensis L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 7.37 (1753); Boiss. Fl. orient. 11, 577. 



As a weed in the fields at Phaneromene near Larnaka (JH 181 a). 



subsp. V. serratifolia .Jacq. Fl. Austr. V, 30 (1878); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 578. V. narhonensis Sibth. et Smith, 

 Prodr. II, 73 (1813); Kotschy, Cypern, .387. 



Fields, already found by Siethorp. At Phaneromene near Larnaka I found typical specimens of 

 this subspecies together with the typical V. narhonensis (JH 131 b). 



V. diimetoriim L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 734 (175.3); Boiss. Fl. orient. II, 580; Kotschy, Cyperu. 383. 



Hills near Omodos (Kotschy 1859). As this .species is very rare in the Levant, its occurrence 

 in Cyprus seems a little dubious; in the herbarium of the Hofmuseum in Vienna I have searched Kotschy's 

 specimens in vain. 



Note. F. onohrijchioidcK L., whicli is widely distributed in the countries round the western Mediterranean, has been 

 recorded from the island by Siethorp (Prodr. II, 70). Its occurrence in (Cyprus ought to be verified. 



V. Cracca L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 735 (175.3); Boiss. Fl. orient. 11, 585; Sibth. et Smith, Prodr. n, 70. 



subsp. V. elegans (luss. Fl. Sicul. Prodr. II, 438 (1828); Freyu in Bull. Herb. Boiss. Ill, 192; Kotschy, Cypern,

Hill-sides, forests, common in the Troodos-mountains. Between Galata and Prodrome (UK 915!), 

 Platraes (Michaelides!), near the Government Cottage (JH 877).
