352 24. ROSACEA. 



Descends to the coast level, in Scotland or England. 



Ascends to 900 yards, in the East Highlands. 



Range of mean annual temperature 46 — 38. 



Native. Sylvestral and Rupestral. Reported to gi'ow 

 near Bodmin, in Cornwall ; and though the habitat is not 

 very unlikely, I hesitate to adopt it for the basis of my es- 

 timates of range, &c. As Mr. Gutch includes this species 

 in the list of plants growing about Swansea, in South 

 Wales, it may be that the temperature of 46 is too low for 

 the upper extremity of the range.

Native. Sylvestral, &c. Frequent in the south of Eng- 

 land; decreasing northwards; rare in Scotland. I have 

 seen specimens, which apparently belong to this species, 

 from all the provinces above enumerated for it, excepting 

 those of North Wales and the Lakes, which are given on 

 the authority, respectively, of the late J. E. Bowman and 

 N. J. Winch, I think that some botanist told me it grows 

 near Glasgow; and a habitat in Moray is given on the 

 authority of the Rev. G. Wilson. Not recognized as a spe- 

 cies of the Edinburgh circuit, in the Catalogue of the 

 Botanical Society, though previously recorded therefrom.
