beautiful leaf the whole winter, was an ornament to these 

 woods. It is much to be wished that it would grow in 

 Sweden. 



Carpinus, 786, Afvenbok, [C. Betulus L. 1770], is 

 called by Englishmen Hornbeam, and occurs in con- 

 siderable abundance. It had a good many of the last 

 year's leaves remaining, but withered enough. From 

 some trees they were all fallen off. 



Cratcegus, Hagtorn, hawthorn, in considerable 

 abundance, though quite small bushes. The leaves 

 were all off. 



Fagus, B6k, beech, very abundant, had nearly all its 

 last year's leaves remaining, although completely dried 

 up. The bark was quite smooth and resembled Ronn, 

 \_Sorbus Aucuparia] the Rowan tree or Mountain Ash. 



Quercus, Ek, oak, here and there tolerably abundant. 

 From the old trees the leaves had mostly fallen off, but 

 for the most part, still remained on the young ones. 



Ulex, [U. Europseus], called by the English Furze, 

 grew in some places, especially on the edge of the 

 forest, in great abundance. Mr. Richard Warner [author 

 of part of a translation of Plautus, 1767, and of Plantae 

 Woodfordienses ; Catalogue of the plants about Woodford, 

 London 1771, 8vo.] told me that it flowers nearly the 

 whole year, except a couple of months in mid-winter. 

 As this plant is very full of thorns, taggar, it is difficult 

 to advance without boots where it is abundant. At a 

 distance many might have thought that there was a group 

 of Juniper bushes, Enbuskar; for its leaves, blan, 

 resemble it, and it grows in exactly the same or similar 

 places. About its great [T. I. p. 150. J usefulness for 

 hedges, &c, an account shall be given farther on. 



Rosa, Vulg. Dog Rose, with several other varieties 

 of the same, grow here and there. They had now no 

 leaves. Rubus [R. Fruticosus~] Bjornbars-buskar,
