76. LILIACE^. 469 



Estimate of provinces 13. Estimate of counties 20. 



Latitude 50 — 56. English (?) type of distribution. 



Agrarian region. Inferagrarian — Midagrarian zones. 



Descends to the coast level, in Channel or Peninsula. 



Ascends to 100 or 200 yards, in England. 



Range of mean annual temperature 50 — 47. 



Native. Sylvestral. Recorded from about thirty coun- 

 ties ; though in suspected places only in several of them, 

 I feel insufficiently prepared to distinguish between the 

 really native and the humanly made localities, in a satis- 

 factory manner. The type of distribution is rendered 

 doubtful, also, by this uncertainty ; and it may be as near 

 the Eastern or Germanic as the strictly English.

 set (16—30 miles from Poole; Salter's Cat.), Wilts (Flo.
