02. CHENOPODIACE.E. 329 



Agrarian region. Inferagrarian — SiiperagTaiian zones. 



Descends to the coast lev^el, in the Peninsula. 



Ascends, at the coast level, to the East Highlands. 



Range of mean annual temperature 52 — 47. 



Native. Littoral. The northern limit of this species 

 for Britain being at the sea-level in Moray, it can only just 

 be deemed a plant of the superagrarian zone ; as well as 

 barely approaching to that general distribution around the 

 coast which places it within the British type. 



t^ • ^ /.SVV. 927. SCHOBERIA MAEITIMA, MeiJ. 



Area general. 



South limit in Cornwall, Isle of Wight, Kent. 



North limit in Shetland, Western Ross, Moray, ^t-^^*^ 



Estimate of provinces 18. Estimate of counties 50. 



Latitude 50 — 6L British type of distribution. 



Agrarian region. Inferagi-arian — Superagrarian zones. 



Descends to the coast level, in the Peninsula. 



Ascends, at the coast level, to the North Isles. 



Range of mean annual temperature 52 — 45. 



Native. Littoral. Possibly the comital estimate of 50 

 may be too high for a species which has not yet been as- 

 certained in quite 40 counties ; but so many of the other 

 maritime counties appear very probable habitats, that I he- 

 sitate to keep down the estimate so low as 40. The steps 

 of the county estimate, being taken at 10 counties each, 

 between 30 and 70 in the scale, are found rather too wide 

 for the maritime plants, where the guess or estimate might 

 probably often be made within five of the reality, even fiom 

 our present incomplete data.
