3038 HIERACIUM. [CLASS XIX. ORDER 1, 
This species we only know from cultivated specimens; perhaps it 
may be overlooked by collectors for H. pilosella. 
4. H. auranti'acum, Linn. (Fig. 1219.) Orange Hawk-weed. Stem 
hairy, nearly leafless, bearing a corymb of from two to ten flowers; 
leaves ovate oblong, entire, green above, pale beneath, hairy; hairs 
simple, those of the involucre black and glandulose. 
English Botany, t. 1469.—English Flora, vol. iii. p. 358.—Hooker, 
British Flora, ed. 4. vol. i. p. 293.—Lindley, Synopsis, p. 159. 
Root fibrous. Seyons short. Stem erect, round, simple, or rarely 
branched, more or less clothed with black spreading hairs above, and 
on the involucre some of them are tipped with small glands. Leaves 
ovate oblong, or elliptic oblong, tapering into a footstalk, dark green 
above, pale, and somewhat glaucous beneath, rough, with rigid hairs, 
especially on the mid-rib beneath, nearly all radical, sometimes there 
is asmall one about the middle of the stem, and above bracteated 
ones. Inflorescence a dense terminal cluster of from two to ten 
flowers, of a deep orange colour. JInvolucre rough and shaggy, black, 
its scales linear, unequal. lorets linear, obtuse, the end cut into 
fine deep teeth. uit cylindrical, abrupt, brown, striated. Pappus 
dirty brown, rough, very fragile. 
Habitat—Shady places; Failsworth, near Manchester, and near 
the sea, Scarbro’; in Scotland, woods near Banffshire and Tarref, 
Coalston woods, E. Lothian, woods east of Kenmore. 
Perennial; flowering in June and July. 
The crowded tuft of fine deep rich orange coloured flowers of this 
plant has obtained for it a place in the borders of many rustic 
gardens, and from thence it is probable that it has escaped, and be- 
come naturalized, though not anywhere a common plant. By the 
country people it is often called Grim-the-collier, from the stem and 
involucre often being elothed with black rigid bristles, giving the 
plant a dark green appearance. 
xk Stem with one or two leaves, many flowered. 
5. H. muro'rum, Linn. (Fig. 1220.) Wall Hawk-weed. Stem with 
HY, angustifolium, Hopp. (Narrow-leaved Mouse-car Hawk’s-weed). 
“Leaves lanceolate, acute, nearly entire, coarsely hairy, green on both 
sides; scyons scarcely as long as the leaves ; stem downy and hairy, corym- 
bose; involucre shaggy.”—Smith.

Habitat.—On Dale head, near Grassmere, Cumberland.—Hudson. 
Perennial ; flowering in July. 
This very doubtful native plant has not been found since the time of 
Hudson. We have given Smith’s description of it, but think it ought to be 
expelled from the list of our Flora.
