REPORT OF THE BOTANICAL SECTION. 



Beside the publication of Mr. Marquand's Flora, there 

 is little to report in the Botanical Section this year. No 

 additions have been made to the Guernsey list. 



To the Sark list four additions have been made : — 



Asplenium triehomanes, L. Common maidenhair spleenwort grows on 

 a wall in the Seigneurie grounds. It appears well established there, 

 probably planted out years ago. This brings the number of Sark ferns 

 to twelve. 



Centranthus PUber, D. C. Eed spur-valerian, grows on a garden wall on 

 the roadside from the Post Office to La Ville. 



Matricaria parthenium, L. Common feverfew. It grows freely near 

 the outbuildings of a farm at La Villette. 



Hypericum linarifolium, Valil. Line-leaved St. John's wort occurs 

 in furze -brakes, &c. The specimen identified came from the back of 

 Mrs. Mollet's farm, Dixcart Lane. 



Matricaria is the only of these on either of the old Sark lists. 



G. Derrick, Sec. Bot. Sect.
