Native. Lacustral or Paludal. As Mr. Coleman, who 

 first directed our attention to this plant, has evinced far 

 more talent for accurate discrimination of species, than de- 

 sire to make them on slight characters ; and as this really 

 appears to have very obvious differences from the ordinary 

 states of Phellandrium, I here treat it as a true species, al- 

 though so little prepared to illustrate its distribution pro- 

 perly. The counties of Kent, Hertford, Essex, Suffolk, 

 and probably Cambridge, have been indicated for it. Mr. 

 C C, Babington says, " Mr. Borrer has observed CEnanthe 

 fluviatilis in several parts of England, and when a young 

 botanist, and unacquainted with Cicuta virosa, he mistook 

 it in a young state for that plant ; and it is published on 

 his authority, as such, as growing at Canterbury and Ash- 

 ford, in Turner and Dillwyn's Botanist's Guide. I have 

 seen what I believe to be the same plant, but without 

 flowers, in a brook at Cherry Hinton, and in the river Cam, 

 at Cambridge." (Annals, 1844, vol. 13. page 190).
