MR. A. BENNETT ON PYROLA ROTUNDIFOLIA IN EAST ANGLIA. 513 
Sir J. E. Smith recorded it from “ a Wood at Middleton,” and 
Hooker (1830) says a Mr. D. E. Davy found it there. 
Henslow and Shopper (FI. Stiff., 53, 1860) give Ashen Spring 
near the .Roundhouse, Theberton. The Rev. Dr. Hind in his 
FI. Stiff., 232, 1899, gives these stations, but no intimation that lie 
had ever seen it, and this I know was so, by letters received while 
lie was compiling the Flora. Specimens from Suffolk are in the 
British Museum Herbarium. In Norfolk the first record I can find 
is that of Larlingford, Rev. G. R. Loathes in Hooker’s Brit. Flora, 
192, 1835. The Rev. K. Trimmer gives the station for P. minor 
with the reference “ II. A. B. F.” i>., Hooker and Arnott Brit. 
FI., ed. 6, 276, I860; but they have no such locality under minor, 
no doubt he intended to tpiote it under rotund! folia. But it was 
known to R. Wigham at Upton before this, as he records it in 
MS. in a copy of Sir .1. E. Smith’s FI. Brittaniea, 1800, formerly 
in the possession of the late Rev. K. Trimmer, and Paget Nat. 
Hist, of Yarmouth, 1834, remarks “Brail well Common, but now 
lost, but still at Upton, fifteen or twenty miles off.” It still grows 
there as the late Mr. Geldart and Mr. Southwell found it on July 
16, 1886 (Trans. 1886, p. 258). In 1866 Mr. Trimmer records it 
from Gunton on his own authority ; and from Bawsey, on the 
authority of Mr. J. Balding. Mr. Geldart (Trans. 1875) gives it 
from Roydon Common, on the authority of Dr. Lowe. In 1884, 
Mr. Trimmer (Supp. FI. Norfolk, 28) adds Edgefield, Aug., 1873; 
Felthorpe, July, 1876; and Gressinghall, Aug., 1877, as stations 
for it. 
About 1890, Mr. and Mrs. Cotton found it in abundance near 
Hoigham Sounds by the Meadow Dike, and sent me specimens. 
In Aug. 1900, and June 1902, my wife and I saw it there in plenty. 
Near to it grew Lastrea cristata, uliginosu, and spinulosa, the two 
last on the raised hillocks on the marsh on which the small Willows 
grow, while c rift at a in the wettest part flourishes. 
In June, 1902, my friend Mr. C. E. Salmon found it at Thurne, 
where it grows with Carex limosa and teretiuscula, Peucedanum 
pahistre, Liparis Loesetii, and other marsh plants, a rich little spot. 
We have now ten stations in Norfolk, six being in E. Norfolk, 
and four in W. Norfolk. It will probably be found in other places 
if sought for, and I should he very glad to hear of any such.
