EXCLUDED SPECIES. 

 CARDUUS OLERACEUS. Pers. 



Gathered as wild in Lincolnsliire, by the late Mr. Cole, of 

 Bourne, about 1823. The plant was then to be observed by the 

 side of the road between Market Deeping and Crowland (Mr. 

 Edwards, in " Phyt." Ser. I. Vol. III. p. 115). 



CARLINA RACEMOSA. linn. 



A single specimen gathered in the Isle of Arran, Galway, by 

 Mr. W. Andrews. 



ARCTIUM TOMENTOSUM. Fers. 



Professor Babington now considers that examples of A. majus 

 have been mistaken for this species in Britain ; it is, however, not 

 improbable that the true plant may yet be found in this country. 



CENTAUREA SALAMANTICA. Linn. 



Pound by Mr. Piquet at St. Ouen's Bay, Jersey. Mr. Baker 

 refers it to C. (Microlonchus) Clusii, Gay. I have not seen 

 specimens. 



CENTAUREA PANICULATA. Linn. 



Pound by Mr. Piquet at St. Ouen's Bay, Jersey ; but I have not 

 seen specimens. 



CENTAUREA LEUC0PH.51A. Jord. 



Pound by Mr. Piquet at St. Ouen's Bay, Jersey. I have not 

 seen specimens. This and the two preceding species have been 

 probably accidentally introduced, and do not appear to have become 

 permanently established. 



CENTAUREA KOTSCHYANA. Koch. 



Professor Babington suggests that a plant found at " Carnuctie, 

 Fife," may belong to this species. I have a specimen of this from 

 the Rev. W. W. Newbould, and it appears to be not C. Kotschyana, 

 but a form of C. Scabiosa with larger appendages nearly concealing
