wood border. — R. dasyphyllus Rogers (/?. pallidas Bab.). W. and 

 C. Very common from Windermere by Patterdale to Ullswater, and 

 from Langdale Head by Ambleside, Grasmere and Thirlmere to 

 Keswick and Threlkeld. From Kirkby Lonsdale by Casterton 

 towards Tebay. — R. corylifolias Sra. sp. coll. C. Watermillock 

 R. cmius Linn. W. By River Rothay, between Rydal and Amble- 

 side. By River Lune at Kirkby Lonsdale. Apparently uncommon. 

 In addition to the foregoing (which I felt able to name without 

 hesitation), I saw immature bushes which seemed to belong to *iR.

western shore of Ullswater (0.) ; both of which should be looked 

 for by those who visit the localities later in the season. 



Alchemilla vulgaris Linn., a. pratensis (Schmidt). C. Water- 

 millock. Threlkeld. — b. alpestris (Schmidt). W. Patterdale. 

 Langdale. Grasmere. Near Kirkby Lonsdale. — c. filicauUs 

 (Buser). W. Orrest Head, Windermere. The Rev. E. F. Linton, 

 who has kindly examined my specimens, thinks that there may be 

 room for doubt as to the Orrest Head plant, but confirms my 

 naming of the others. — A. alpina Linn. W. By Goldrili near its 

 junction with Ullswater at about 420 ft. above sea-level, as well as 

 higher up by Grisedale Beck towards Helvellyn. C. On the 

 western shore of Thirlmere, almost to the water's edge. 



Saxifraga aizoides Linn. W. Down to about 500 ft. above sea- 

 level at base of Place Fell. C. Not far above the level of the water 

 at Thirlmere.— Cotyledon Umbilicus Linn. W. Easedale, near 

 Grasmere, M. A. R. ! 



Carum verticillutum Koch. W. Tebay, by Low Borrow Bridge, 

 in plenty, il/. A. RA Not recorded for Westmoreland in Top. Bot. 

 or Supplt. ; but in his Flora Mr. Baker has the following note : 

 u Gathered on Kingmoor (1882) by my friend Mr. W. Duckworth, 

 of Stanwix, Carlisle (W. Hodgson)." 



Myosotis palustris Relh. var. strigidosa Mert. & Koch. W. Pat- 

 terdale. Rydal. C. Near Threlkeld. The variety frequent ; type 

 not seen. — M. repens G. Don and M. cespitosa F. Schultz were both 

 abundant. 



Mimulus Langsdorjfii Donn. Alien. W. For a considerable dis- 

 tance along the beck below High Dungeon Ghyll Hotel. — M. mos- 

 chatus Dougl. ? A plant, which Mr. Edmund Baker has kindly 

 examined and thinks must be a scentless form of this species, 

 grows luxuriantly in a beck that loses itself in a quarry near Rydal 

 (W.). No doubt a " garden escape," though now well established 

 as a denizen. — Veronica Montana Linn. W. Grasmere. — Euphrasia 

 officinalis Linn. Abundant and flowering freely in both counties, 

 but in most cases my specimens were not sufficiently mature for 

 satisfactory determination. The one form as to which there could 

 be no doubt was E. Rostkoviana Hayne. This was in great beauty 

 by becks and in damp meadows at from 300 to 700 ft. W. Lang- 

 dale Head and Valley. Through Patterdale up to the south end 

 of Ullswater, and on Grisedale, below Helvellyn ; crossing the 

 border into Cumberland. Other forms, kindly examined for me by
