Native. UHginal. The explanations above given under 

 M. palustris, will show the uncertainty which attends our 

 knowledge respecting the distribution of this species, which 

 has been less usually distinguished from the former spe- 

 cies, than has the more frequent M. caespitosa. I have no 

 authority for the occurrence of M. repens in the Trent 

 province, except the Flora of Nottinghamshire, and I fear 

 that the species really intended may be the M. CEespitosa. 

 For the provinces of the Peninsula, Ouse, North Wales, 

 and Mersey, it will be seen, I have no authority or record 

 to be cited ; but those provinces are all likely enough to 

 justify their inclusion in the estimated census of a species, 

 the full distribution of which has been hitherto so imper- 

 fectly ascertained or recorded. I am at present aware of 

 localities in 25 counties only.
