1. A. fistulosa, (Linn.) fistulose, or tubular Water-Dropwort, the 

 stems and leaves being hollow like a pipe. Engl. Bot. t. 363. 

 Reich. Icones, t. 1898.

5. North-east District, Canal-side between Swindon and Crick- 

 lade, " Great Bedwyn," Mr. W. Bartlett. Not generally distributed 

 through Wilis. Chiefly remarkable for its tubular or fistulose habit, 

 the petioles, and even the leaflets, of the upper leaves being hollow 

 like the stem! 



. 2. CE. Lachendlii, (Grmel.) Lachenal's, Water-Drop-wort. CE.

5. North-east District, Marshy places by the Canal between 

 Swindon and Cricklade. These are the only localities where I 

 have as yet gathered the present species, though doubtless it is to be 

 found in other parts of the County. Many of my correspondents 

 having unfortunately confused the CE. pimpinelloides of Linnaeus 

 with the present one, induces me to withold several stations recor- 

 ded by them, until its distribution can be more accurately ascer- 

 tained. 



3. CE. crocata (Linn.) Hemlock- Water-Dropwort, Crocatus refer- 

 ring to the colour of the juice. Engl. Bot. t. 2313. 



Locality. About the banks of the Avon, Canal, in low wet 

 meadows, and along ditches and brooks, not unfrequent. P. FL
