 mouth." Mr. S. P. Woodward thought it " really wild at 

 Lakenham," in Norfolk. And Mr. Tatham writes, " No 

 doubt indigenous in the neighbourhood of Settle, York- 

 shire, and very common." I have filled up the formula 

 according to the reported distribution of the species, as 

 was done in the case of Chelidonium majus, of Ribes Gros- 

 sularia, and of other species much distrusted by myself, 

 though widely established, and received as British by some 

 botanists. There can hardly be a doubt, however, that all 

 the Scottish habitats are of artificial origin, even although 

 some few of the English may be considered otherwise.

Denizen. Viatical. A dubious native, which has been 

 said to grow in about fifteen counties, but eiToneously re- 

 ported in some of them. Reference may be made to the 

 Botanist's Guides for the counties in detail, and for the au- 

 thorities upon which they rest as habitats for this scarce 

 plant. Mr. Edward Edwards adds the county of Kent, in
