Erica cinerea , L. Very common. I never saw 
it more abundant than about Warren Farm and Yorks 
Greens at Freshwater, where this heaths were quite 
red with this plant. E. Tetralix , B. Common. 
Erythrcea Centaurium , Pers. Rather common. In 
the Undercliff sometimes whiteflowered. 
E. pulchella , Fr. On the downs frequently. 
Chlor a per foliota^ L. On the cliffs of the sou¬ 
thern coast, and there growing to the extraordinary 
height of 40—50 cm. Preferring chalky soil. 
Convolvulus arvensis , L. ß linearifolius , Chois . I 
saw this form growing in cult, fields and on waste 
ground about Niton (N. E.) from the village). 
Cuscuta Epithymum , L. Growing on Ulex nanus, 
U. Gallii, Calluna vulg. and Erica sp. on Arreton 
Down and in Parkhurst Forest. 
Lycium Barbarum , L. Only planted in hedges 
at Ventnor. 
Digitalis purpurea , L> Common (e. g. about 
Niton). 
Orohanche Hederce , Duby. I only saw the spe¬ 
cies in the neighbourhood of Ventnor, but there it 
grew in greatest abundance in the town and along 
the coast and also in the Undercliff to St. Lawrence. 
0. minor , L. On Trifolium sp. in almost every 
field. The unusually great occurrence of this plant 
was perhaps to be ascribed to the exceedingly wet 
weather that continued during all the summer. 
Verbena officinalis , L. In grassy fields at Niton, 
in the Undercliff and on Arreton Down. 
Calamintha silvatica , Bromf. In woods about 
Apse Farm, west of Calbourne plentiful; — only
