ASPLENIUM VIRIDE. 246 



Dumbartonshire. — Mr. Gourlie has found it on Ben Voirlich. 



Lanarkshire. — I observed it growing by the Falls of Clyde ; and Dr. 

 Balfour, Mr. Gourlie, and other Scotch botanists, appear to be weU ac- 

 quainted with this station. 



Nairnshire. — Mr. Stables informs me that it is of common occurrence 

 in congenial situations in this county. 



Perthshire. — Mr. Gourlie and several other botanists have found it 

 on Ben Lawers. 



Rosshire. — The Rev. G. Gordon has observed it in this county. 



Sdtherlandshire. — Mr. Watson has observed it in this county. 



The following list of localities, confessedly very imperfect, wiU show its 

 range in England and Wales. 



Northumberland. — Mr. Winch found it sparingly on roolts by the 

 Irthing, at Wardrew. 



Cumberland. — Mr. Winch gives Ashness Gill, Borrow Force, and rocks 

 at Gillsland as localities ; at the latter station it is very abundant. 



Westmoreland. — The Rev. Mr. Pinder has favoured me with speci- 

 mens from Hutton Roof, Farlton and Arnside. Mr. Hindson informs me 

 it is found on Casterton Fell ; and Mr. Watson, on the authority of Mr. 

 Bowman, informs me that it has been found at Mazebeck Scar. 



Durham. — Mr. Watson and several other botanists have given me Fal- 

 con Glints as a locality. 



Yorkshire. — Mr. Tatham, who informs me it is very common on the 

 limestone cliffs above the town of Settle, has kindly supplied me with spe- 

 cimens. It has also been found near Halifax, Ais-la-beok, Richmond, Gor- 

 dale, GUla-leys Wood, and other locahties too numerous to mention. 



Lancashire. — Mr. Sidebotham informs me it grows at Dulesgate, and 

 it is said to have been found in the quarries at Staley, but he has not seen 

 it from the latter locality. 



Cheshire. — " Among stones and rubbish thrown out of the quarries at 

 Carr Edge : Mr. Bradbury." — ' Botanist's Guide.' 



Derbyshire and Staffordshire. — The Rev. Mr. Pinder informs me 

 that it is remarkably abundant and luxuriant in Cavedale, Castleton ; and 

 Dr. Wood, that it is abundant near Buxton. I am indebted to Mr. Pin- 

 der for a liberal supply of specimens. It also occurs in Dovedale, on both 

 sides of the river, therefore in Derbyshire and Staffordshire. 



(Leicestershire. — "A few plants were found in the crevices of the 

 crags on Charley Forest, at Beacon Hill : Pulteney." — ' Botanist's Guide.' 

 The Rev. A. Bloxam, to whom I am indebted for a list of Leicestershire 

 feras, does not mention tliis species : and as I am informed that Asple- 

 nium Trichomanes does grow in the locality indicated, it seems possible 

 that an unintentional mistake has occurred).
