larger and more rounded perianth ; and which, in general 

 appearance, might he placed between R. aquaticus and K. 

 obtusifolius. 



949. Rumex pulcher, vol. ii. p. 347. 



The county of Lincoln may be indicated in the north 

 limit of this species, as I observed it by the road-side 

 between Lincoln and Bracebridge last autumn. 



950. Rumex inaritimus, R. palustris, vol. ii. p. 347. 



I am still unprepared to sepai'ate correctly the localities 

 on record for these plants. E. maritimus is probably the 

 more frequent and more widely distributed i^lant. The 

 provinces numbered in the line of area may be taken as 

 those in which R. maritimus has been recorded, whether 

 rightly or wi'ongly. And by omitting provinces 13 and 

 18, the same Nos. will show the provinces on record for 

 R. palustris. Mr. C. C. Babington seems inclined to add 

 a third sj)ecies, closely allied to these two, under name of 

 E. Hmosus; for which, see Bot. Gaz. i. 296. 



957. Thes'ium Linophyllum, vol. ii. p. 353. 



The county of Essex may be added to those enume- 

 rated in the second volume, Mr. G. S. Gibson finding the 

 plant at Chesterford and Heydon. 



958. Asariim europceum, vol. ii. p. 354. 



There is some probability that this plant may be a true 

 native of Wiltshire. Mr. T. B. Flower informs me that 

 in Sole's MS. Flora, dated 1783, it is mentioned as grow- 

 ing " in the Duke of Queenborough's woods, near Ames- 

 bury." And " one large patch of it was found by Mr. 

 Popliam, about the j'ear 1820, away from any house, in 

 the left hand hedge of the lane, going from Standlynch 

 Down, to the large chalk-pit at Redlj-nch, near Salis- 

 bury." In August, 1850, Dr. Bromfield wrote to me 

 thus ; " Mr. Borrer thinks the Wiltshire station for Asa- 

 rum a good and natural one. The station is verj-
