458 MR. A. BENNETT ON 8ENECIO PALUDOSUS AND S. PALUSTRIS. 
26. Suffolk West. — Though variously stated, and leading one 
to suppose there may have been two stations, I believe it was only 
one; it was discovered by Mr. F. R Eagle in 1798, at Lakenheath 
Fen, near Wangford. I have seen many specimens gathered by 
Mr. Eagle and others, but I cannot find any of a later date than 
1817. This date is, however, open to correction. Within the last 
ten years the ground has been carefully gone over, but no trace 
of the species exists; neither do I think it will be refound here 
judging by the surroundings. 
27. Norfolk East. — E. or W. Eng, Bot. ed. 3, o, p. 88, 1866. 
For certain reasons 1 believe this will be Norfolk E. The authority 
for Norfolk is a specimen in Sir J. E. Smith’s herbarium at the 
Linnean Society; with the note, “ Found by myself and J. Sherard in 
Norfolk.” In the ‘ Phytologist,’ pp. 152, 295, 1861, Mr. W. Winter 
says, “ Occasionally found at Ran worth.” While the locality in 
itself is not an unlikely one, no one else seems to have been able 
to find it. I have searched many likely places for this species, but 
without success ; yet, so difficult of access are some of these places, 
that 1 do not despair of its being refound some day. 
After this was written I was enabled, by the kindness of 
Mr. Cross, to examine the copy of the ‘Flora of Cambridgeshire’ 
that belonged to the late Mr. W. Marshall of Ely ; and in this 
I found a definite Norfolk station for Seneciu paludosu ■«, i.e., 
Redmore Fen, in the south-west corner of the county, bordering 
on Cambridgeshire ; indeed, Mr. Marshall seems to have considered 
it was Cambridgeshire. In present maps it is called Redmore Fen, 
but in 1789 all these Fens were spelt “Fenn.” In his notes of species 
“extinct since I began to observe plants in 1834,” Mr. Marshall 
calls it “ Redmoors.” 
Mr. Cross also lent me a map dated' 1789, and I find there were 
three fens at Lakenheath, “ Lakinheath Mow Fenn,” “ Lakingheath 
Stallard Fenn,” and “ Lakingheath Common Fenn ” ; the spellings 
are as on the map. If we consider “ Lakenheath Fen by Wangford,” 
it would apply to the third one named. Another interesting item 
I culled from this map. What are now called “ Wilton Fens ” in 
South-west Norfolk (the owners of this land in 1789 were named 
Wilton), in that map they are named “ Sea Fenn and Cowells in 
Ilockwold and Wilton.” Here we have the suppression of an old 
name, which was a very suggestive one too (read by the light of
