Jersey. M. repens Don appears the commoner plant ; I saw it in 



all the islands. 



Echium plantagineum L. In most beautiful flower on West 

 Mount, &c. On the slope of a hill near Beauport there were some 

 hundreds of a tall fasciated form three to four feet high ; in one 

 instance at least the flattened stem was ten inches across, and had 

 on it 438 fully expanded flowers. The plants attracted my atten- 

 tion more than a mile away. 



\Statice maritima Mill. This holotrichous plant was common 

 on the north coast of Guernsey, at Grosnez in Jersey, at Alderney 

 and Sark. — S. plantaginea All. Very abundant over the Quenvais 

 and St. Ouen's Bay, and much increased in quantity since my last 

 visit. I saw nothing of the supposed hybrid mentioned by Syme, 

 but I did not search his locality with care ; I believe it was only a 

 form of S. plantaginea, which varies at St. Ouen's very much in 

 stature and size which Mr. Lester-Garland drew my attention to, 

 a marked form (fvar. bracteata mihi), with long bracts from 1 to 

 1J in. long, giving a very curious appearance to the plant. Natur- 

 ally there are transition forms, but plants answering the above 

 descriptions are quite common, and especially noticeable before 

 flowering. 



Limonium hjchnidi folium O. Kuntze. I saw this coming into 

 flower in the classic locality. — L. binervosum C. E. Salmon. Beau- 

 port, Jersey. 



Verbascum virgatum Stokes. Near Vazon, but not typical. 

 V. nigrum L. Corbiere, Jersey. 



Veronica Anagallis-aquatica L. A small glabrous form with 

 pale flowers at La Moye, Jersey. — V. agrestis L. A form with 

 white flowers, the three upper petals tinged with pink, as described 

 by Mr. Marquand, is frequent in Guernsey. 



Scrophularia Scorodonia L. Common, not only "in hedges 

 and thickets," but on banks and walls, Jersey. 



\Bhinanthus stenophyllus Schur. Near Grande Mare, Guernsey. 

 — R. Crista-galli L. is the common form in the islands. 



Bartsia Odontites L. var. verna (Reichb.). Grande Mare, 

 Guernsey. — B. viscosa L. Not unfrequent, Corbiere, Jersey. 



Euphrasia carta Fries var. glabrescens Wettst. In all the 

 islands ; plentiful at Longy, Alderney ; on the Quenvais, Jersey ; 

 and at L'Ancresse, Guernsey; and in Sark. — E. occidentalis Wettst. 

 Alderney ; Sark. — \E. nemorosa H. Mart. Sark. 



Orobanche purpurea Jacq. I think to this must be referred 

 the blue Orobanche of Jersey, where I saw it on West Mount, 

 abundantly near Pont Marquet, at Beaumont, L'Etac, and St. 

 Ouen's, Jersey; and also abundantly in Alderney. In both islands 

 the modifications with many stems springing from the same root 

 occurred. — 0. minor Sm. Mont Orgueil, Beauport, L'Etac, Jersey. 

 — 0. amethystea Thuill. Very characteristic at Braye Bay, 

 Alderney, growing on Eryngium, and sometimes thirty-three 

 inches high. St. Catherine's Bay, Jersey. Passed by Dr. G. 

 Beck. — 0. Hederce Duby. On the cliffs near the harbour, Sark, 

 a form with nearly white flowers and stem grew on ivy, which
