122 HISTORY OF THE COUNTY BOTANY OF WORCESTER. 
Iii 1781 and 1782 Dr. Treadway Nash published his two 
ponderous Folios, entitled “ Collections for the History of 
Worcestershire .” The first vol., 1781, contains (Introduction 
p. lxxxix.) a list of 43 rare plants. As this is the first 
Worcester List of any extent I shall quote it entire, arranging 
the species in the order now usually adopted, and omitting 
for the sake of brevity the English names, times of flowering, 
and other remarks. 
“ A catalogue of some rare plants in Worcestershire, the
