mens of Hypericum dubtum ? all with reflexed and broad sepals, 
all slightly denticulate at the apex, and hence apparently not to 
be distinguished from H. maculatum of authors. Babington

From Whiting Bay I went to Dippen Point, where there are

Agrimonia Eupatoria Verbascum Thapsus 
Ligusticum scoticum Scutellaria galericulata (very 
Heracleum  . large 
Hedera Heli Empetrum nigrum 
Lonicera apeaat | Carex vulpina 
Pyrethrum Parthenium » Mmuricata 
Verbascum Thapsus seems to be confined to the trap in this

lactniata (arenaria) and A. Babingtonii in all its forms. 
Cakile maritima | Eleocharis palustris 
Salsola Kali 
On Benan rocks :— 
Verbascum Thapsus was Asplenium marinum 
again seen

near Black Water. Picked :—
