NOTES ON THE FLORA OF DORSET 379 
kindly sent me specimens of several of the more critical species, 
and I add ! after species or localities of which I have seen speci- 
mens. I think those which I have not seen may be accepted as 
correct. 
Thalictrum flavum L. Edmondsham.—Adonis autumnalis L. 
Reported to me as having been found at Cranborne by Mrs. Head. 
Edmonsham.—Aconitum Napellus L. In the borders of a field 
near the Deer Park, St. sed hardly native. 
erberis vulgaris L. In edge not far from a cottage, and 
ty peel ran L. var. aiigonwe (Boenn.), both in Edmondsham. 
—*Fumaria Borei Jord. D. Wareham. F. Shapwick; Park- 
stone. Noe localities are ee for this species in FI. Dorset, 
though it is mentioned as ‘ It is, ho pate -Grobuble that 
most of the localities stated for F. confusa Jord. should be trans- 
ferred to F’. Borat. mh nae ens of the plant common throug 
south-east Dorset, which we were calling F. confusa, were re- 
named by Mr. Pugsley as above r. serotina Clavaud. 
D. Wareham.—F. densiflora DC. D. Entrance to Lytchett 
Bay, L. V. Lester-Garland. F. Goatham.—*F’. parviflora Lam. 
F. Arable field near Badbury Rings, the late Rev. R. P. Murray. 
Bell Salter’s notice of this species, without specimen and without 
locality, is so uncertain, that I mark this as a new record for the 
county.—Erophila verna HE. Meyer D. Wareham. F. East of 
Almer.—*Var. stenocarpa (Jord.). Down, north-east of Handley. 
—E. precox DC. Old wall, Wimborne; a form, Edmon sham, 
on gravel path. Pins eras cheiranthoides L. Edmondsham, very 
scarce.—Coronopus didymus Sm. Alien, Edmondsh m.—Lepi- 
dium ruderale L. Mount Pisesunt Horton, introduced probably 
with chicken’s food.—*Bunias orientalis L. Roadside near the 
‘Black Horse,’ Baileygate, R. P. Murray— Raphanus maritimus 
Sm. A. Near Charmouth, by the shore. The record for the 
county has bi questioned, but I obtained a “sta from this 
locality to grow, and proved it correct. The plant grew very 
strong in my garden for one season, and was exterminated by the 
turnip-fly. 
Helianthemum Chamacistus Mill. is said in the Flora to be 
common and generally distributed. This is true on the chalk, but 
on the extensive heathland of East Dorset it is absent.—Viola 
calcarea Gregory. G. Sent me from near Swanage, by Mr. Bolton 
King ; foe sone —Polygala it eae Weihe. Edmonds- 
ham and Goatham.—P. calearea F. Schultz areas Down, near 
St. Giles ; Sosbedai Down, near Cranbor
