612 ADDITIONAL NOTES, ETC. 



Dickinson's Flora of Liverpool. Reported to occur in 

 Cornwall, according to Mr. Pascoe, but not observed in 

 that county by himself. Dr. Arnott writes me, in Novem- 

 ber, 1849, " I am very doubtful as to the Fife station of 

 Orchis pyxamidalis. In Galloway, it grows in pure sea 

 sand with Psamma arenaria and Convolvulus Soldanella ; 

 probably a ballast hill, as it is close to a small harbour 

 where vessels discharge — I can scarcely say what, for there 

 are no houses near." The stations near Liverpool, Che- 

 shire side of river, are reported on the sands of the coast, 

 which are doubtless mingled with shells, and thus may 

 contain lime enough for a plant which seems to require 

 lime. 



1053. Orchis maculata, vol. ii. p. 428. 



Add Orkney to the north limit, on the authority of Mr. 

 J. T. Syme. 



1055. Hahenaria bifolia and chlorantha, vol. ii. p. 429. 



Province 15 may be added in the separate area for each 

 of these, as indicated on page 430 of volume second. H. 

 bifolia may be considered usually the ericetal plant, and 

 H. chlorantha the sylvestral. 



1057. Hahenaria alhida, vol. ii. p. 431. 



This " has indubitably occurred in one locality in Sus- 

 sex," according to Dr. Bromfield, referring to Jenner's 

 Flora of Tunbridge Wells, p. 45. I suspect that Mer- 

 rett's Noi'thampton plant is incorrectly referred to this 

 species in Turner and Dillwyn's Botanist's Guide, Her- 

 minium Monorchis having been originally intended. 

 Near the end of the remarks under this species in volume 

 second, a mistranscript occurs. East JTi^r/tland being 

 printed instead of East Zowland province. 



1058. Aceras anthropophora, vol. ii. p. 431. 

 Province 2 may be added in the area, on authority of 



Mr. Woods, who has found this plant in Sussex.
