2. V. odorata, Ij. Native. English type. Area D. Eange 1. 



"We claim this as a true native only for the denes of the Magne- 

 sian Limestone country. In Cheviot-land it is quite a rare plant, 

 having been seen by Mr. Tate only in Hulne "Woods and by Mr. 

 Embleton near Ellingham. In Tyneland it is quite scattered, 

 but in Durham more frequent, especially about Darlington, Mid- 

 dleton-one-Eow, Stockton, and Yarm. 



3. V. Mrta, L. Native. Xerophilous. English type. Area 



C, N, D. Eange 1.

 in Teesdale to 300 yards, and occasionally found upon the coast 

 links, as at Cullercoats and Tynemouth.

Eange 1-3. 



Common upon hedge-banks and in grassy places, ascending to

 V. Reichenbachiana, Jord., is abundant in Dinsdale Woods and no

The only specimens of this from our district which we have 

 seen were gathered by Mrs. J. G. Baker upon the coast sand-hills 

 between Hartley and "Whitley, but it is very liable to be passed 

 over for the preceding.

In Teesdale plentiful upon the Sugar Limestone of "Widdy 

 Bank Eell and westward north of the "Weel. Elevation 500-550

 nearly naked.
