124 PROCEEDINGS COTTESWOLD CLUB 1916 
The above list is, of course, in no way exhaustive, even of 
the less common species, and, to my knowledge, many flowers 
I have not mentioned have been found in the last few years 
by others. I have confined it to plants actually gathered or 
observed by me personally between Hempsted Bridge and the 
Basin, and, in all cases of doubt, their names have been con- 
firmed for me by the Rev. H. J. Riddelsdell, or some other 
competent authority, except where I have expressly qualified 
my words. 
Note. 
[It should be borne in mind that in the paper itself “ this 
year ” means 1915.] 
Owing to causes connected with the war, the Flora of the 
Docks became, during 1916, largely obscured from the public. 
T did, however, note the following : — 
Anthriscus vulgaris, Papaver Argemone, Sisymbrium pan- 
nonicum, Sisymbrium columnce, Atropa Belladonna, Lythrum 
Salicaria, Carduus tenuiflorus, Arctium tomentosum, Coronilla 
varia, Medicago Falcata, Saponaria opficinalis, Malachium 
aquaticum, Cichorium Intybus, Salvia verticillata, Erigeron 
canadense, Epilobium angustifolium var. brachycarpum, Cheno- 
podium leptophyllum , Camelina sativa and, not far from its old 
haunt, Vida lutea once more. Arctium tomentosum came to 
an end that was both sharp and sudden, but I think the fruit 
had ripened first.
