supposed that he had discovered them there, and the last 

 " in a truly wild state." 



501. Myrrh is odorata, vol. i. p. 463. 



If we reject provinces 1 and 3 from the natiu'al area for 

 this plant, there is still difficulty in fixing upon the 

 counties to be substituted for Somerset and Surrey as the 

 south limit. Glamorgan and Derby would probably be 

 less objectionable, though I do not hold the plant certainly 

 native in either county. 



Xd. Echinophora spinosa, vol. i. p. 464. 



In JopUng's Sketch of Furness and Cartmell Mr. Aiton 

 records this plant in terms that would seem to imply it 

 had been found by himself " on the shore at Sandside, 

 near Ulverston ; and near Winder Hall, Cartmell." Could 

 the Eryngium maritimum have been mistaken for the 

 Ecliinophora, by a botanist who expected to find the 

 latter ?

503. Viscum album, vol. ii. p. 5. 



The locality of Mickleour is within Perthshu-e ; but I 

 fear that the record will not warrant the extension of the 

 native area of this plant to the East Higliland province. 

 Most likely introduced to the neighbourhood of Liverpool, 

 according to Dr. Dickinson. 



504. Samhucus nigra, vol. ii. p. 6. 



Mr. J. T. Syme deems this species introduced into 

 Orkney, and tliinks it only a doubtful native where he has 

 seen it in Kincardine, and in the tract of the Ocliills, situ- 

 ate between West Perth and Fife.
