then by the Severn to Tewkesbury. The districts, however, 
into which the county is divided for the purposes of the Flora, 
are indicated by the numbers i, 2a, 2b, 3 to 6, 7a, 7b. These 
numbers appear among the actual localities, e.g., R. idceus

a first instalment, is not the ideal on which the completed 
County Flora will be framed. Its true purpose has already 
been set forth. If an ideal for the County Flora is to be 
looked for among actualities, the uninitiated should consult 
Mr White’s “Bristol Flora,” a book which combines scientific 
knowledge, literary taste, and human interest in a degree 
which excites at once admiration and envy.
