Browning in Dodsworth. Nocton, 1814; Miss Stovin. This 
sp. is in the Hailstone Herb., York Museum. It is labelled 
‘Nocton, Derbyshire ;’ but there is no such place in that 
county, and we know Miss Stovin was collecting round Lincoln 
for Hailstone. 
Brassica Napus L.j The Rape occurs as an escape from 
cultivation in fields and hedges constantly. But I never 
remember noting seedlings. 
Brassica RurasacaA DC. Same astheabove. This is the Swede 
of our fields. 
Brassica Rapa L.j An escape from cultivation. N.—I have 
four localities and two specimens. But they require further 
study ; there are so many varieties now of the Rape, Swede, and 
Turnip, and the nomenclature of the latter, to say the least, 
is confusing without type specimens. I have followed the 
3rd ed. of Lug. Bot. 
Brassica nigra Kock t Native? but rare. N, and S. in fields 
and by ditch sides in the fen districts. N.—2. S.—2z.

Stainton-le-Valet, etc., 1878; Mr. F. A. Lees. S,—Waste 
ground at Deeping. Mr. W. H. Beeby, Journ. Bot., 1884, p. 18. 
Pishey Thompson has the following as a foot-note to this 
plant :—‘ It very frequently occurs when a ditch is cleaned out 
in this district (i.e., the south-east corner of N.), and the 
excavated soil is cast on the bank, that it will be covered in the 
succeeding season with a crop of White Mustard, although that 
plant had not appeared in the locality os many preceding 
years, unless under similar circumstances
