SINAPIS — RESEDA. 263 



point where I have seen it in a subspontaneous state is Red- 

 mire in Wensleydale. 



Sinapis nigra L. English type. Colonist. Area 7654.21. 

 Range 0-200. Occasionally cultivated, and also an occasional 

 weed of cultivated fields and waste ground. Perhaps a native 

 on the coast at Baytown (Robin Hood's Bay). 



Sinapis tenuifolia L. English type. Denizen. Area 

 8.5432. Range o-ioo. Along the coast plentiful about 

 Middlesbrough and Coatham, and rarer southward about 

 Whitby and Scarborough. Inland in a field between Newby 

 Wiske and Kirkby Wiske, upon a hedge-bank at Thirsk, upon 

 the railway embankment at Guisbrough, and in the limestone 

 quarries at Malton. Introduced with ballast to the railway 

 bank near Thirsk Junction ; PV. Foggitt. Railway bank at 

 Northallerton, 1887 ; J. Wheldon. Probably a genuine native 

 of North Yorkshire. 



Sinapis muralis L. English type. Denizen. Area 54.2. 

 Range Coast-Level. Along the coast in waste ground about 

 Middlesbrough and Coatham, and by the side of the Esk below 

 Ruswarp. In this latter station it was first noted by Edwin 

 Lees. Established also on the railway embankment at Thirsk; 

 W. Foggitt. 



Raphanus Raphanistrum L. British type. Colonist. 

 Area general. Range 0-350. Not so common as Sinapis 

 arvensis, but like that species a weed of cultivated fields, and 

 ascending as high as field-cultivation reaches. Raphanistrum 

 arvense Reich, is not unfrequent. 



Reseda luteola L. British type. Native. Area general. 

 Range 0-250. Frequent in dry places, ascending to the plateau 

 of the calcareous range over Rievaulx. Ascends Wensleydale 

 to Redmire and road-side over Leyburn Shawl; J. Percival. 



Reseda lutea L. English type. Native. Area 7654321. 

 Range o-ioo. In similar situations to the preceding, but less 

 frequent. More abundant about Middlesbrough and along 

 the coast line to Coatham than anywhere else within our limits. 



Aug, 1889.
