rather than an insular climate, an eastern rather than a 

 western. 



407. Tillcea muscosa, vol. i. p. 395. 



Province 3 may be added to the true area, on authority 

 of Mr. Borrer and Dr. Bromfield ; the latter of whom 

 favoured me mth a specimen from Hants ; Mr. Borrer and 

 other botanists reporting the plant as wild also in Dorset. 

 Those two counties may consequently be indicated for the 

 south limit. The provincial and comital estimates must 

 be doubled. The range of latitude will become 50 — 53, 

 and that of temperature 51 — 48. 



409. Sedum Telephium, vol. i. p. 396. 



From tliis species Mr. Babington separates the S. pur- 

 pureum (Tausch). I have not particularly exammed into 

 the alleged distinctions derived from the shape or insertion 

 of the upper leaves, but it is one of those uncertain charac- 

 ters that can be proved of small or no value in numerous 

 other plants, of which the leaves vary in a similar manner 

 with soil and season. 



410. Sedum villosum, vol. i. p. 397. 



Enumerated in the Flora of Liverpool ; but it has not 

 been seen by the Author of the Flora, or by the numerous 

 other competent botanists, who have visited the j)retended 

 station at Bootle ; nor can the name of Mr. James Ros- 

 coe be deemed at all reliable botanical authority under 

 the circumstances. Still, the province of Mersey, in its 

 moory and inland portion, seems far from unlikely to 

 produce tliis species. Descends to the sea level in the 

 East Highlands, according to the indications of localities 

 in the Flora of Forfarshii-e. 



413. Sedum album, vol. i. p. 399. 



The Sedum of Malvern rocks and of walls elsewhere, 

 recorded under name of S. album, is the S. teretifolium of 

 Haworth, according to Mr. Borrer in Bot. Gaz. ii. 94. S.
