ORDER XL VIII. JASMINACEiE. 
LIGUSTRUM. 
714. L. vulgare, Linn. Native. English. 
ERAXINUS. 
715. F. excelsior, Linn. Native. British. 
Var. heterophylla, Vahl., is much cultivated near Doncaster — O. A. 
Moore. 
ORDER XLIX. APOCYNACEiE. 
VINCA. 
716. V. minor, Linn. Alien ? 
Possibly this species might be referred to a higher than the alien 
category. In the woods at Storthes Hall, near Huddersfield, it is 
stated to grow “interspersed with Saxifraga umbrosa in such abun- 
dance as to preclude the possibility of its being an escape from 
garden cultivation” — P. Inchbald (Phyt. iii. 332). But on the pre- 
ceding page it is expressly stated, that the Saxifraga, though 
“covering large tracts,” is “naturalised” only; so that there must 
be a strong probability that the periwinkle which grows intermixed 
with it, has been “naturalised” also. 
717. V. major, Linn. Alien. 
ORDER L. GENTIANACE2E. 
GENTIANA. 
718. G. verna, Linn. Native. Local. 
Ascends also nearly to the summit of Micklefell — J. Backhouse , Jun. 
719. G. Pneumonanthe, Linn. Native. English ? 
721. G. Amarella, Linn. Native. British. 
This includes two species of continental authors, G. Amarella, L., 
and G. Germanica, Willd. The former is not uncommon in dry, 
heathy situations ; the latter occurs occasionally. 
722. G. campestris, Linn. Native. British.
