Aiea (1 2 3 4 5 i 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 * * 18). 



Alien. The frequent records of this species seem to in- 

 dicate much tendency to naturalize itself in this coimtry ; 

 and yet the few localities in which examples of it have 

 been seen by myself, were so obviously of garden origin, 

 that I could not at aU hesitate about the propriety of hold- 

 ing it merely ' alien ' in Britain ; corroborated as my own 

 ideas on the subject are by the obsei-vations of so many 

 botanists who have recorded localities for the species. 

 Both Hooker and Babiugton, however, give it as a native ; 

 and others may likely deem it at least entitled to the inter- 

 mediate term of ' denizen.'

Geranium nodosum, Linn. 

 Geranium angulatum, Curt. 



Ai-ea [3 * 12]. 



Incognit. Has been reported from Hertfordshue, York- 

 shire and Cumberland; and specimens are in herbaria, 

 alleged to have been collected in the two latter counties. 

 Mr. Borrer, however, refers the Cumberland plant (or one 

 of the plants alleged to have been found wild in Cumber- 

 land) to G. angulatum ; which induces me to place both 

 names here. Various particulars about the localities of 

 these species may be seen in the Phytologist, first volmne, 

 pages 556 and 588, and second volume, pages 376 and 

 430.
