found. Miss Morton, however, who would be certain 



to see it if it still existed, has sought it for years there 



in vain ; nor did I see it. 

 1307. I. Pseud-acorus. Yellow iris. Common in all wet 



places. 

 1309. Crocus vernus. Spring crocus. An alien. Studley 



district (Lees, 1. c). 

 1311. Narcissus Pseudo-narcissus. Daffodil. The large 



double garden variety may be found as an occasional 



escape by stream sides ; I believe that the wild variety 



is to be found on Galphay moor, whence Baines 



records it. 

 1313. N, biflorus. Pale narcissus. Newby district (Lees, 



1. c). Not indigenous. 



1316. Galanthus nivalis. Snow-drop. Woods and stream- 

 ' sides, common ; almost invariably double. This must 



be in some degree attributable to the soil, as single 

 snow-drops in gardens near Ripon tend to become 

 double in a year or two. Mackershaw ; Skell and 

 Laver banks ; Skelton woods ; &c. 



1317. Tamus communis. Black bryony. Hedges, common. 



1318. Paris quadrifolia. Herb paris. Woods, local, but 



not uncommon. Commonest in the woods by the 

 Laver, and in a few woods near Masham. 



1321. Polygonatum multiflorum. Baines records this 



from Studley and Fountains ; and there it may yet be 

 found in plenty — in garden beds at the Lodges. 



1322. P. officinale. Baines records this from Studley and 



Fountains. 



1323. Convallaria maialis. Lily-of-the-valley. Woods, 



local. Mackershaw ; Aldfield ; Thornton (Plues) ; 



in large beds in Brafferton Spring wood near Pilmoor. 



1330. Gagea lutea. Yellow star-of-Bethlehem. Copses, 



especially with a south aspect. Red Bank ; opposite
