406 ADDITIONAL NOTES, ETC. 



256. Ononis reclinata, vol. i. p. 283. 



This is given as indigenous to the British Islands in 

 the London Catalogue, but as an alien only in the Cybele. 

 Though not native in Scotland, or any part of Britain 

 proper, it is said to be so in the Channel Isles ; and hence 

 it is given as a native in the Catalogue mentioned. 



259. Medicago falcata, vol. i. p. 283. 



The county of Sussex to be erased ; the species having 

 been erroneously enumerated among the plants of that 

 county. I fear that it should also be excluded from the 

 county of Dorset ; and that the second province can be 

 given only as erroneously recorded ; my sole authority 

 left for that province, being Dr. Salter's Catalogue of 

 Poole plants. Mr. Hort records it, without any special 

 remark or station, among plants seen in the neighbour- 

 hood of Weston- super-mare in Somerset (Phytol. ii. 1047), 

 which I hesitate to receive as sufficient evidence of the 

 nativity of the species in the province of Peninsula, be- 

 cause other botanical visitors of Weston do not appear to 

 have met with it there. 



260. Medicago lupulina, vol. i. p. 284. 



Mr. Syme observed it about Swanbister in Orkney, but 

 supposed it likely introduced with gi"ass-seeds ; so that 

 the province of North Isles (18) cannot yet be added to 

 the truly native area of this usually very common j)lant. 



261. Medicago maculata, vol. i. p. 285. 



Provinces 6 and 9 to be added in the area ; that of South 

 Wales on authority of Mr. C. C. Babington, who observed 

 this species in Pembrokeshire ; that of Mersey on faith of 

 Dickinson's Flora of Liverpool, but on the anonymous 

 authority of " W. H." 



262. Medicago denticulata, vol. i. p. 286. 



Provinces (5) and (11) may be added in the area, but 

 not as really indigenous habitats. Mr. Storey sent me a
