‘ON THE FLORA OF THE UPPER TAMAR AND 
NEIGHBOURING DISTRICTS. 
By roe Rev. W. Moyte Rogers, F.L.S. 
THe following notes embody the chief results of a season's 
botanizing in a neighbourhood quite new tome. No stations are 
given but those in which the plants referred to were seen in 1882, 
either by myself, or by my friend Mr. T. R. Archer Briggs, who 
during a week’s stay at my, house in August explored much of the 
country and sigs ney to my a eapee “ its Flora. 
The parts xamined are the valley in my o 
immediate Sictboachood at Basi cotate, A an coast about Bude 
where I spent three weeks in July. But it seems best to divide 
the whole country treated of into four districts as follows :— 
_ I. The seaboard from the N. W. boundary of Cornwall at 
Morwinstow to Tintagel; with the road owes the high ground 
from Launceston to Kilkh ampton as eastern lim 
II. The valley west of the Tamar, from its apuree to Launceston, 
including both sides of the rea ke and Kilkhampton Road. 
Ill. The country east of the Upper ae and drained by its 
affluents, ee te nearly to a mpto 
IV. The Okement and Upper Taw. 
I, a . are in K. awa: III. and IV. in N. Devon 
three interesting papers on the Flora of I. and II. by the Rev. 
Dr. Hind and Messrs. J. G. Baker and T,R. A. Briggs, respec- 
tively will oe found in this Journal for 1878, pp. 86-48, 97-101. 
What I now contribute is supplemental to what appears in 
these papers. Indeed all the actual stations named here are, I 
believe, additional to those hitherto published; except in the eo 
instances in which spa name of the earlier recorder is found i 
brackets after the sta 
e Tamar divides "the parish of Bridgerule into Bridgerule 
West and Bridgerule East. Hence the frequent occurrence in 
these notes of ‘‘ Bridgerule’ in two of the districts (II: and IIL.), 
in Cornwall and Devon respectively.
