338 Riddelsdell : Plants in the Bicheno Herbarium. 



The old record of Sedum villosum for Ingleborough is con- 

 firmed. The Flora of West Yorkshire appears to carry it down 

 to 1778 only. But perhaps the most interesting- record is 

 that of Ranunculus Lingua for Giggieswick Tarn. The Flora 

 mentions J. Windsor's record, with the comment 'Gone — if ever 

 there?' A specimen sent by J. Woods to Bicheno is included in 

 this collection, identical with the ordinary form of R. Lingua, so 

 far as I can see, except that the leaves of the flowering- stem 

 are decidedly stalked. 



From W. J. H. come various Teesdale plants ; from J. W. 

 a number of the choice things of Craven — Polemonium, Saxifraga 

 umbrosa, Thalictrum minus from Gordale, and Ribes rub rum ! 

 from Gordale, etc. 



These specimens are, man}- of them, undated ; but as the 

 dated Yorkshire specimens of the collection are all 1814-1824, 

 the same period may be taken to cover those not specified. 



The complete records for the Vice-Counties of the North of 

 England contained in Bicheno's collection are as follows : — 



57. Derbyshire. 

 Turritis glabra. Near Matlock, 1821. 

 Cardamine impaiiens. Matlock, 182 1. 

 Arenaria verna. Matlock, 1821. 



Lychnis Flos-cucuIL Dovedale. Young plant. Misnamed 



L. viscaria. 

 tlelianthemum vulgare. Dovedale, 18 14. 

 Geranium sanguineum. Matlock. 

 Vicia silvatica. Matlock, 182 1. 

 6 Galium sp. nova Planta pubescens.' Dovedale. 

 Galium pusillum. Matlock. 

 Dipsacus pilosus. Matlock, 182 1. 

 Campanula lati folia. Matlock. 

 Myosotis silvatica. Dovedale. 

 Empetrum. Between Chatsworth and Sheffield. 



The Dovedale plants are all (except Lychnis) attributed to 

 ' J. W.,' and of course are not necessarily from the Derbyshire 

 side ; the locality for Empetrum is more probably in Derbyshire 

 than in Yorkshire. 



The ' Galium sp. nova' is a curious looking plant. It looks 

 like some form of G. erectum, but is densely pubescent. It 

 would probably repay critical examination at capable hands, and 

 may be refound in its Dovedale habitat.
