 for a while. Halnaby Carr, a small piece of wooded swampy 

 ground about a mile from Croft by the side of the road to Rich- 

 mond, is a good botanical locality. It yields Rammculus Lingua, 

 Pyrola 7-otundifolia, Listera cordata, Carex teretiuscula, C. stricta, 

 Eriophorum gracile, Hypnum straviiueiim, and abundance of H. 

 Blandovii and H. ?ittens, and in an adjacent lane is a station for 

 /uncus diffusus. 



The ascertained flora of this district is decidedly below that 

 of five of the others. Of the Montane species it has 77 out of 

 85, which is considerably more than any of the others can furnish, 

 but the Montane is the sole category in which it can claim a 

 superiority. Its Xerophilous species are neither so numerous 

 nor so abundant as in the West Swale, Yore, and Derwent dis- 

 tricts. Of the Submaritime species it has one only ; its Hygro- 

 philous plants are very few in number and rare ; and its Rarer 

 Ascending considerably under the average number. The follow- 

 ing is an analytical table of its flora :
