^ of Plymouth ; for I have found it in a lane near Torrington-place, only a 
gun-shot or two from where I write this, and also in a plot of ground attached 
to the Eoman Catholic church, Cecil-street." 
During a ramble with Mr. Briggs in 1SG4, we observed it in some 
additional spots near Plymouth, amongst others by the side of the 
South Devon railway near Lipson mill. — C- Near St. John's: 
Briggs MS. Near Saltash : id. in Journ. But. iii. 350. 
A specimen from Cann quarry is in P. I. Herb. 
E. roseum (Schreb.)— i?.!?. 693. — Damp places. — J). Beside the 
stream at llsington village; near Topsham: Ft. Dev. Pale smooth- 
leaved Willow Herb. 
"An obscurely characterized species, which is frequently represented by 
specimens of E. montanum or E. parvifiorum ; and being thus little known 
to botanists, its localities must remain still less known, until some circum- 
stance shall call more decided and careful attention thereto." — Cyh. Brit. 
i. 372. 
E. tetragonum (L.) — Damp places. — J). Common. Cann quarry ! 
(1863). By the side of the road between Plymouth and Milehouse, 
and plentifully at the latter place ; at Crabtree ; on limestone 
rubble near a quarry at Ptadford ; by the side of the footpath 
between Plymouth and Laira bridge ; also about three miles 
beyond the bridge on the Brixton road, and near the latter place : 
Briggs in Journ. Bot. iii. 350. I refrain from quoting the loca- 
lities given by Mr. Ravenshaw, as, from his having bracketed them 
and placed a (?) before the species in his book, it would appear 
that he was in doubt as to their respective genuineness, and, 
from his subsequent remarks on the next species* (which has been 
regarded until lately as a variety merely of this) that he wished to 
imply that he suspected the habitats named were referrible to that 
plant. — C- Wear, near Millbrook, as a weed in a garden. 
Abundant near Torpoint: Briggs loc. cit. Pioad-sides [Falmouth], 
* " This plant [E. ohscurum'], which has long been confounded with the 
foregoing [E. tetrayonum] is the more frequent in the western counties." —
