256 HISTORY OF THE COUNTY BOTANY OF WORCESTER. 
* Pyrus domestica, 38. Purton quotes the old authorities and some new 
ones for the occurrence of this tree in “ Wire ” Forest. 
Sium repens, 25. Bogs on the side of Abberley Hill; Cookhill, near 
Alcester. T. P. ( Thomas Purton). This is a variety of Sium 
(Apium) nodifiorum. 
* Sium latifolium, 26. Blakedown Pool, near Stourbridge. T. P. 
* Asperula cynanchica, 14. Broadway Hills. Rufford. 
Campanula rapunculoides, 18. Discovered by the Rev. G. H. 
Piercey, of Cliaddesley, near Kidderminster, in a lane on a 
dry bank near to Shrawley Wood, September 30th, 1820. 
Monotropa Hypopitys, 36. Shrawley Wood. Mrs. Gardner. 
f Melampyrum cristatum, 54. Near Ombersley, Worcestershire. Mrs. 
Gardner. Surely this must be an error. 
Myosotis versicolor, 16. On the top of Malvern Hill, nearly opposite 
the village. Rev. W. S. Rufford. 
* Cynoglossum sylvaticum, 17. Near to Evesham on the Fladbury 
Road. Communicated by Edward Rudge, Esq., F.L.S., to 
Rev. W. S. Rufford. 
Daphne Mezereum, 33. Eastliam and Stanford, Worcestershire. 
Rev. Edward Whitehead, of Corpus College, Oxon. 
Euphorbia platyphylla, 38. South Littleton. 
Ceratophyllum demersum, 70. In fish ponds at W. Rawlins’s, Esq., 
Brockencot, Worcestershire, filling nearly the whole of one pool. 
Salix aurita, 76. On the Ridgeway. Common. 
* Acorus Calamus, 31. On the banks of the Avon near Pershore, and 
at Hanley, Worcestershire. Rufford. 
Potamogeton compressum, 16. In the ditches near Abbots Moreton. 
P. compressum of Linnceus is represented by the four 
modern species —P. zosterifolius , P. cicutifolius , 
P. obtusifolius, and P. mucronatus. P. zosteri- 
folius and P. obtusifolius both occur in the 
county. Purton 1 s plant was probably one of 
these. 
Ophrys muscifera, 67. Eastham. Rev. Ed. Whitehead. 
f Scirpus carinatus, 6. Chickhill Pool near Enville, and at Himley, 
Staffordshire ; Scott, Stourbridge. 
I assume the meaning of these records to be that the 
two Staffordshire localities were vouched by Mr. 
Scott , of Stourbridge. In “ Stourbridge and its 
Vicinity ” Scott refers the plants from these 
localities to S. lacustns. 
Carex GEderi, 69. On the highest ground of Bromsgrove Lickey. 
This must be the plant now known as Carex fiava, var. minor. 
Avena pratensis, 13. Broadway Hills. Rufford. 
* Aira [Keeleria) cristata, 8. Broadway Hills. Rufford.
