Native. Viatical. Apparently a rare plant in the west- 

 ern provinces, and thus approximating to the Germanic 

 type in its area and distribution. Recorded from the 

 coasts of Devon and Lancaster, as also from the neigh- 

 bourhood of Bath, with upwards of twenty other more 

 easterly counties. Perhaps the locality of Lythara, in 

 Lancashire, reported by Mr. N. Buckley, if taken in con- 

 nexion with a few localities in the province of the Penin- 

 sula, may be deemed to unite this species with those of 

 the English, rather than with those of the Germanic type 

 of distribution.
