NOTES ON THE FLORA OF BERKS. 
By tHe Rev. W. Moyze Rocers, F.L.S. 
records for the co ritten’s ‘* Contributions to a 
Flora of Berks,” published i in the ¢ Raneacsions! of the Newb 
District Field Club in 1872, the county is divided into five districts. 
The high road from Newbury to Abingdon, which is the boundary 
between tivo of ee ‘** Mid Berks” and ‘“‘ West Berks,” cuts the 
parish of Beedon in two. These notes consequently deal only with 
the southern porkeeiis of these two districts, represented here (as 
in Mr. Britten’s paper) by the respective letters M and W before the 
several localities. So my remarks as to the rarity or frequency of 
certai 
hood remarkably high and dry. Hence the almost total absence 
of wet-land plants in this list. The nomenclature is that of Lond.
