SLATER : FLORA OF RIPON. 1 69 



Moor, but I have not seen it elsewhere near Ripon, 

 though Dr. Lees records it from the Newby district. 



1288. Listera cordata. Mountain tway-blade. Turfy 



moors, local. Is recorded by Baines from Rombalds 

 Moor, also from "near the waterfall at Lord Grantley's 

 lakes on Sawley moor " ; also by Mr. Lees from the 

 Studley district, which may refer to the same place. 



1289. L. ovata. Tway-blade. Woods and meadows, common. 



1290. Neottia nidus-avis. Bird's nest. Shady woods, local, 



and having a preference for beech trees. Macker- 

 shaw ; recorded by Mr. Lees (1. c.) from Hackfall 

 and Newby districts. 



1291. Epipactis latifolia. Helleborine. Woods, common. 



Mackershaw ; Hackfall ; Newby district (Lees, 1. c). 



1294. E. palustris. Marsh helleborine. Wet meadows and 

 marshes, local. I found one plant in the Marfield 

 near Masham, where it was subsequently found by 

 Mrs. Berkeley ; Miss Morton records it in fair 

 abundance from Cowmire, near Galphay, whence I 

 have seen specimens. 



1297. Cephalanthera grandiflora. Large-flowered helle- 

 borine. Woods. Mrs. Berkeley shewed me in 1881 

 a finished drawing of a helleborine she had found in 

 Hackfall, which can only have been this plant. I did 

 not see the specimen itself, as it had been given away, 

 but there can be little doubt on the point, for Mrs. 

 Berkeley's coloured drawings are of unusual excellence. 

 This plant should be carefully looked for. 



1306. Iris fcEtidissima. Foetid iris. "Bank at Little 

 Nunwick, by Ripon" (Mr. Brunton, in 181 6). Baines 

 (1840) gives the additional particulars, "behind 

 Clark's house " ; Mr. Lees records it (doubtless on 

 these authorities), and believes that it may still be
