counties on record for " mi-

N.B. The above selection of 

 counties takes in those spe- 

 cially reported for eii-minor, 

 along with some others re- 

 ported for minor as growing 

 on " clover " or " Crepis." 

 It will thrive on other plants 

 quite well ; for instance on 



the Scarlet Geranium and 

 Campanula Vidalii. 



793 Orobanche Eryngii. 



1 Corn. west. " MenneU." 



2 east. Goulding sp. 



3 Devon south. Bab. man. 



9 Dorset. (Eidley & Fawoett). 



14 Sussex e. Mrs. Jones sp. 



15 Kent east. Syme sp. 

 N.B. Imperfectly understood 



by myself ; so that I cannot 

 either confirm or contradict 

 the nomenclature of the 

 " sps." Mr. Borrer doubted 

 the correctness of the name 

 " amethystea " apphed to the 

 plants of Cornwall ; but it is 

 retained in Eng. Bot. edition 

 third. 



79 3* Orobanche Picridis. 



10 Wight. Bromfield sp. 



15 Kent east. Syme sp. 



17 Sur. Wintlerec. "on teazle." 



29 Cambridge. Gibson sp. 



45 Pembroke. Babington cat. 



N.B. This also is imperfectly 

 understood by myself. An 

 Orobanche which I find in 

 Surrey, growing on Picris 

 and Crepis, appears to me 

 the same as the Orobanche 

 minor often found on clover 

 in the same county. 



793*Orobanche Hederse. 



1 Corn. west. 



3 Devon south. Borrer ms. 



4 north. 



6 Som. north. Thwaites cat. 

 8> Wilts south. Flower cat. 

 9 Dorset. Pleydell cat.
