“Nature never did betray
The heart that loved her: ’tis her privilege,
Through all the years of this our life, to lead
From joy to joy: for she can so inform
The mind that is within us, so impress
With quietness and beauty, and so feed
With lofty thoughts, that neither evil tongues,
Bash judgments, nor the sneers of selfish men,
Nor greetings where no kindness is, nor all
The dreary intercourse of daily life,
Shall e’er prevail against us, or disturb
Our cheerful faith that all which we hehold
Is full of blessings. Therefore let the moon
Shine on thee in thy solitary walk,
And let the misty mountain winds be free
To blow against thee ; and in after years,
If solitude, or fear, or pain, or grief,
Should be thy portion, with what healing thoughts
Of tender joy wilt thou remember me,
And these my exhortations! ”
— Wordsworth.
NOTE,
BY THE AUTHOR OF THE “ FLORA OF YORKSHIRE.”
In offering to tire Public this Supplement to the “ Flora of Yorkshire,”
I can lay but little claim to direct participation in the large addition of
species and stations which has been made since the publication of the
work, in 1840.
At that time I took occasion to express my opinion, that many curious
discoveries would reward the diligent observer, who might venture be-
yond the beaten track, into the more secluded districts of the county;
but I must confess, that I never anticipated that the number of species
added would have been so large as has already proved to be the case.
Had I myself edited the Supplement, it would have been a mere
list of species and localities ; but Mr. Baker, with the assistance of
Mr. Nowell, having with great kindness undertaken the management of
the matter, (a task for which their labors in the special field of research,
and their acquaintance with the general literature of the subject, have
rendered them so eminently fitted,) I may with confidence introduce the
Supplement which they have furnished, to the notice of my Friends and
the Public, as exhibiting not only a very complete list of the botanical
treasures of the county, so far as it professes to treat, but also as a
•work calculated to lead its readers to the study and investigation of
general principles.

INTRODUCTORY EXPLANATIONS.
The Supplement to the “ Flora of Yorkshire ” contains a complete list
of the flowering plants, ferns, and mosses, known or reported to grow
wild within the limits of the county, so far as they hare been ascertained
by those who have contributed towards it, at the close of the year 1853.
Since the original “ Flora ” was published, fourteen years have elapsed.
During the interval much has been accomplished in collecting facts and
details relative to the geography of the plants of Britain, and connecting
together the records of their localities and situations which have been
gradually accumulated. By arranging and comparing these, considerable
progress has been made in tracing the leading features of the distribution
of the species which compose the (phanerogamic) flora of Britain over
the surface of the island, and investigating the laws and conditions which
govern and limit their diffusion. The era of the “ New Botanist’s Guide”
has passed away, and is succeeded by that of the “ Cybele Britannica.”
During the interval, also, Babington’s “ Manual of British Botany” has
replaced Hooker’s “ British Flora,” as a popular descriptive handbook and
standard of nomenclature. The most characteristic feature of this work,
which has already, passed through three editions, is an endeavour to
establish uniformity in the nomenclature employed in this country, with
that of the most trustworthy continental authorities of modern times,
amongst whom Koch and Fries are pre-eminent. In order to attain this,
numerous alterations from the names previously adopted have been
rendered necessary. Many species before unknown within the limits of
Britain have been found, upon closer examination, to extend their range
to this country. And others, which were formerly supposed to be single
species only, are found, upon more accurate investigation, to require sub-
division. So that the fourth edition of the “ London Catalogue of British
Plants ” is very different from what any similar enumeration which might
have been attempted in 1840 would have been.
6
In preparing tlie first part of the present work, I have endeavoured, so
far as I have been enabled by my own observations, and by the assistance
of various notes and lists liberally furnished to the author of the “ Flora”
and to myself, to carry out the idea of the original work up to the present
time, by making the additions which were needful to adapt it to the
present standard of knowledge. That is to say, I have wished that the
“Supplement,” either taken alone or in connection with the “Flora,”
might furnish a summary of the higher vegetation of the county, so far
as it has been ascertained: for the use of the botanical and physical
geographer, either to be viewed by itself, or considered in comparison
and taken in connection with other similar comital enumerations ; and
of the resident or travelling collector, to give him information respecting
the species which he may expect to be enabled to add to his herbarium
within the limits of the county, and some of the special localities of the
rarities.
In all scientific enumerations of the plants of a definite area, it is
needful that a clear line of distinction should be drawn between those
which are indubitably ascertained to inhabit it, and those, the occurrence
of which within the limits of the district rests only upon doubtful
authority or unconfirmed report. It is also essential, if we wish to esti-
mate the true relations of the flora, to separate as accurately as possible
those species which are aboriginal inhabitants of the district, so far as
can be judged, from those which bear the appearance of having been
introduced by human agency at some period more or less remote. Partly
in order that we might attempt to trace these distinctions in the present
instance ; partly because, on account of the alterations in nomenclature,
which, as before explained, have been rendered necessary by advancing
knowledge, confusion might otherwise have arisen; it has been judged
desirable to repeat the complete series of names.
For various reasons, upon which it is unnecessary here to dwell,
especially for the sake of uniformity with the “ Oybele Britannica,” the
catalogue of British plants published by the Botanical Society of London,
the fourth edition of which has just made its appearance, has been used
as an index of nomenclature and arrangement. A line or more is devoted
to each species which the county is ascertained or reported to afford ; but
a single line only to those species, respecting the situations and degree
7
of rarity or frequency of which no further information than is contained
in the “ Flora” appears necessary to be given, or has been obtained. This
line contains, on the left hand side, the number and name under which
the species stands in the Catalogue, with an abbreviation of the name of
the original authority for the latter. Next is placed one of the following
series of terms,* used in the sense explained below, designed to express
the degree of citizensliijD of the species, so far as can be judged from the
evidence which has been obtained.
Native. — Apparently an aboriginal Yorkshire species ; there being little
or no reason for supposing it to have been introduced by human
agency. Examples : Ranunculus acris, Beilis perennis, Calluna
vulgaris, Coryllus Avellana.
Denizen. — At present maintaining its habitats as if a native, without the
aid of man ; yet liable to some suspicion of having been originally
introduced. Examples: Viola odorata, Saponaria officinalis, Pyre-
thrum Parthenium.
Colonist. — A weed of cultivated land, and about houses ; seldom found,
except where the ground has been adapted for its production by
the operations of man. Examples : Papaver Rhceas, Brassica
Napus, Lychnis Githago.
Alien. — Now more or less established, but either presumed or certainly
known to have been introduced by human agency. These may be
arranged under two classes : — 1st. Species introduced by horticul-
ture. Examples : Corydalis lutea, Mimulus luteus. And 2nd. Spe-
cies introduced by agriculture, or with ballast. Examples : Alyssum
calycinum, Lolium italicum, Trifolium incarnatum.
Incognit. — Reported as a Yorkshire plant ; but either certainly erroneous,
or extinct, or requiring confirmation before it can be received with
complete confidence. Of species reported through errors in nomen-
clature, Hieracium villosum, Centaurea jacea, and Stachys ger-
manica, are examples. Others have been placed in Yorkshire lists,
on faith of localities which are not within the limits of the county ;
as Vaccinium uliginosum, Woodsia ilvensis. Amongst those species
which have formerly occurred, but are now probably extinct, are,
Vide “ Cybele Britarmica,” vol. i. page 63.
8
Silene cornea, Potamogeton zostersefolius, and Carex Gibsoni.
Examples of the class of species which are probably correctly
reported, may be found in Centaurea calcitrapa, Aceras anthropo-
phora, and Carex brizoides.
One of the most important generalizations which has been established
through the onward progress of geographical botany, is, the subdivision
of the British flora into “ types of distribution,”* according as the species
are more or less generally diffused over the whole extent of the island,
or are limited to, or preponderate in, some particular section of its sur-
face. In order to afford a means of estimating the relations of the flora
of Yorkshire to that of other portions of Britain, on the right hand side
of the line is placed the name of the type to which each species may bo
considered to belong. The types of distribution are thus named and
made up.
1. British Type. — Species which are more or less generally diffused
throughout the whole, or nearly the whole, extent of Britain.
Examples : Sagina procumbens, Senecio vulgaris, Thymus serpyl-
lum, Lastrea dilatata.
2. English Type. — Species which have their head quarters in England,
especially in the southern provinces, and become rare and finally
cease altogether towards the north. Examples : Rhamnus catharti-
cus, Pulicaria dysenterica, Convolvulus sepium, Tamus communis.
3. Scottish Type. — Species which, contrary to those which make up the
last type, have their head quarters in Scotland or in the northern
provinces of England, and become rare and finally cease altogether
southward. Examples : Trollius europeus', Campanula latifolia,
Gnaphalium dioicum.
4. Highland Type. — The boreal flora in a more intense degree. Species
which have their head quarters amongst the Scotch Highlands, and
are only found southward in the vicinity of elevated mountains.
Examples : Draba incana, Rubus chamsemorus, Myosotis alpestris.
5. Germanic Type. — Species which have their head quarters in the south-
east of England, and run out northward and westward. Examples :
* These were first defined in Watson’s “ Remarks on the Geographical Distribution of British Plants,”
published in 1835. They are fully explained in the same author's “ Cybele Britannica,” vol. i. pp. 43—55,
and under each species in detail.
Anemone Pulsatilla, Ophrys apifera, Brachy podium pinnatum.
6. Atlantic Type. — Species which have their head quarters in the south-
west of England, and run out northward and eastward Examples :
Hypericum Androssemum, Sedum anglicum, Asplenium marinum.
7. Local oe Uncebtain Type. — Species too much restricted in their dis-
tribution to be ranged under any of the preceding pages. Ex-
amples : Actaea spicata, Potentilla fruticosa, Gentiana verna. Or
doubtful for various reasons
In those cases in which the species has been discovered within the
limits of the county, since the “ Flora ” was published : or further infor-
mation of sufficient importance to be worth recording has been obtained
respecting it : or correction and explanation were rendered necessary,
the line which contains the category of citizenship and type of distribu-
tion to which the species belongs is followed by a paragraph conveying
the requisite information As may readily be supposed, new localities
have been ascertained during the interval which has elapsed since the
“ Flora ” was published, for the greater proportion of the rarer species
included in it. But they have only been given in the present work in
those cases where very few localities were mentioned under a species in
the “ Flora, ” or further verification and confirmation of its occurrence
within the limits of the county has appeared desirable. I may take this
opportunity of expressing an acknowledgement of my obligations to
the numerous kind friends and correspondents, whose names will be
found throughout the pages of the work, who have furnished lists of
localities, illustrative specimens, and information of various kinds. It
will be understood, that in those localities which are not followed by the
name of any authority, I have personally collected the species under
which they are given. A note of admiration implies that I have examined
an authenticated specimen, either from the station specified or of the
plant described by an author ; and in most of these cases an example is
preserved for reference in my herbarium.
In arranging the second part of the work, my colleague has followed
the same system of nomenclature and the same order of sequence of the'
genera and species that was adopted in the “ Flora.” We should, however,
have preferred taking the “ Brvologia Europea” of Bruch and Sehimper
as a Standard of classification, if the issue had been completed, or Wilson’s
10
forthcoming Manual of “ British Bryology,” if it had been published in
time. He has given the synonyms of those species which have appeared
in the former work under different names : and has arranged the mosses
which the county has been ascertained to produce, on the same plan which
has been pursued with reference to the Flowering Plants and Ferns.
That is to say, he has given the names only where no further information
of sufficient importance to be worth recording has been obtained respect-
ing those species which are included in the original work, but the localities
also of novelties and rarities. But the mosses of a considerable propor-
tion of the cotmty have been only very imperfectly explored, and the long
list of species which we are enabled to furnish, is the result, rather of the
persevering efforts of a few talented and diligent bryologists in their re-
spective districts, than of the combined labours of a great number of
observers.
On account of the comparative paucity of data which have been collected
respecting the lower familes of cellular plants, we have not thought it
desirable in the present work to exceed the scope of the original Flora.
Respecting the Hepaticae of Yorkshire, information may be procured from
the Botanist’s Guide, Spruce’s list in the Phytologist, (vol. 2, page 158,)
and Mac Ivor’s Hepaticae Britannicae. Teesdale, Harriman, Brunton,
Dalton, Hailstone, and Gibson, have determined numerous lichens in
different parts of the county, and more recently, my friend W. Mudd, of
Ayton, has published in the Phytologist, (vol. 5. page 71, 97,) a list of con-
siderable extent of the species which he has found in Cleveland. Various
botanists have collected maritime Algae, and some few have studied the
fresh-water and microscopic groups ; but nothing like a complete list of
the species which may be supposed likely to inhabit the country has been
obtained. The Fungi of the country present a wide field for exertion,
which has as yet hardly been entered upon.

THE FLOWERING PLANTS AND FERNS :
BY
JOHN GILBERT BAKER.
GENERAL SUMMARY.
In the present work 1155 species of flowering plants and 53 Ferns are
enumerated. Out of these, T3 flowering plants and 8 ferns are either
certainly erroneous, or cannot he received with confidence as Yorkshire
plants without further confirmation of their occurrence. Of the remain-
ing 1082 flowering plants, 31 are naturalized species only, which are not
included in the fourth edition of the London catalogue, and one (Salix
acutifolia) has been discovered since it was printed. So that out of 1445
flowering plants enumerated in the catalogue, 1051 species, or 72 \ per
cent, and out of 60 ferns, 45 species, or 75 per cent, have been ascertained
at the present time to inhabit Yorkshire. If we deduct the alien species
of flowering plants the relative proportion of the floras, in the number of
species which they contain, still remains nearly the same ; for out of 1336
species enumerated in the catalogue, we may claim 955, or 71% per cent.
But out of 1336 flowering plants enumerated in the catalogue, 31 species,
and out of 60 ferns, two species, belong exclusively to Ireland or the
Channel Islands. So that the true proportion which the ascertained
Yorkshire flora bears to the ascertained British flora is 71% per cent, or
1001 species to 1339.
The following is a tabular summary of the species enumerated in the
present work, arranged according to the categories of citizenship under
which they are placed : —

AN OUTLINE OF THE BEARINGS
OF THE
PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY OF THE COUNTY
UPON ITS VEGETATION.
Tlie superficial area of the county is stated at 5836 square miles. That
of the whole of Britain is about 90300 square miles, and yet we have seen
that within the limits of Yorkshire, three out of every four vascular species
which the island produces have been ascertained to occur. If, however,
the range of climate and physical character embraced within the area of
the county was less extensive, the number of species which it furnishes
would be decreased in proportion. As the natural result of its varied
structure and the varied elevation of different parts of its surface, in its
flora, groups of plants of austral and alpine distribution, with the various
intermediate gradations, meet and mingle together. The broad and fertile
central vale and its ramifications, where the annual temperature is the
normal effect of latitude, and does not differ materially from that of a
considerable part of the midland counties of England, afford a flora com-
paratively luxuriant in species, typically southern, and essentially English
in its characteristic features. Amongst the wide extent of the broad
ranges of barren moorlands, where the climate from the elevation of the
surface corresponds with that of the lowland provinces of Scotland, a
vegetation of a more northern stamp finds supplied the suitable condi-
tions for its existence. Whilst round the elevated peaks of the great
central ridge of the island, cluster those more hardy and arctic species
(supposed to be the vestiges of the flora of the pre-glacial epoch) which
find in Britain their head quarters amongst the Grampians of Perth ,and
Forfar, and Aberdeen.
The author of the “ Cybele Britannica” lias considered the surface of
Britain as subdivided into two climatic regions.* The boundary between
* Vide “ Cybele Britannica,” vol. i. pp. 19 — 43.
18
these is marked by the line of the limit above which grain cannot be
cultivated : or when this test is not easy of application, by the line of
cessation of the common brake, (Pteris aquilina,) which is generally dif-
fused throughout the whole extent of the island ; but only grows where
cultivation is practicable. The lower of these divisions possesses a mean
annual temperature, ranging from 52 to about 42 degrees. It comprises a
much larger extent of surface than the upper, but its conditions are con-
siderably modified by the operations of agriculture and the influence of
man. It is therefore designated the region of cultivation or Agrarian
region. The upper division possesses a range of mean annual temperature
from 42 to about 32 degrees, and remains nearly in its natural state. It
includes that portion of the surface of the Scotch Highlands which
rises above 450 or 500 yards in elevation above the level of the sea : and
of the English and Welsh mountains above about 600 yards. Its charac-
teristic flora bears a strong analogy to that of the north of Europe, and it
is therefore distinguished as the Arctic region.
In order to supply a means of registering the vertical distribution of
species, the two climatic regions are each subdivided into three zones.
Each of these zones has a range of about three degrees of mean annual
temperature, but the extent of surface which they severally embrace is
necessarily very unequal. Each is characterised by its peculiar flora, and
as an aid to their recognition in practice we may regard each as bounded
by the line of limit of some conspicuous species. The author of the
“ Cybele” furnishes the following table.

3. Superagrarian zone . . . Pteris aquilina without Rhamnus
2. Midagrarian zone . . . Rhamnus catharticus without Clematis
1. Inferagrarian zone . . . Clematis, Rubia, Cyperus longus.
The area of Yorkshire is embraced within the second, third, and fourth
19
of these climatic zones. The midagrarian, or with reference to the county
only, the lower zone, comprises all that portion of the surface which does
not attain an, elevation of about 300 yards. The inferarctic or upper zone
includes those mountain summits which exceed about 600 yards ; and the
superagrarian or middle zone, the intermediate space.
If we wish to make more exact and accurate comparisons of the vertical
distribution of species than can be supplied by tracing their zonal range,
it is easy to estimate, with sufficient accuracy for practical purposes, the
isotherms or lines of mean annual temperature, within which their
localities are respectively circumscribed. The influence of latitude in
causing a variation between the climate of different parts of the county
is so slight as scarcely to deserve consideration. The mean annual tem-
perature of the whole coast line may therefore be stated in round numbers
at 49 degrees, though in reality, it is rather less. That of all inland
situations which are not much above the coast level, including the whole
of the great central vale, may be taken at 48 degrees For the remainder
of the surface, we shall not fall far short of accuracy in adopting the rule
first proposed by Dalton of deducting one degree of mean annual tem-
perature for every hundred yards of elevation. The summit of Micklefell, the
highest mountain in Yorkshire, attains an elevation of 2580 feet. So that
according to the rule just stated, its average annual temperature will be
rather less than 40 degrees ; and consequently the range embraced within
the limits of the county, about nine degrees.
Although several districts have been only very partially explored, it
is not probable that the relative proportion which the Yorkshire flora
bears to that of the whole of Britain will be materially increased as
knowledge advances : seeing that most of the species have been found
which might be expected to occur, from their distribution beyond the
limits of the county. But although such is the case, we can only estimate
very imperfectly from the data which have been accumulated, the manner
in which each species is diffused over the surface, and the proportion
which each bears to the general mass of the vegetation.
In order to obtain a means of judging respecting the horizontal distri-
bution over the island, of the species which make up the British flora, and
reducing to accurate expression through the medium of a numerical for-
mula the knowledge which has been and maybe obtained respecting each,
20
the author of the “ Cybele ” has considered the surface of Britain as sub-
divided into eighteen botanical provinces,* usually formed by grouping to-
gether several counties which comprise the basin of a river, or possess some
other physical peculiarity in common. Amongst the counties of Britain,
Yorkshire, alone, is considered sufficiently extensive in area, and natural
in its boundaries, to form a province of itself ; and is called the tenth or
Humber province. For the sake of attaining greater accuracy, more
recently he has mapped out the island into thirty-eight sub-provinces ; f of
these, Yorkshire contains two, East Humber and West Humber, which are
bounded from each other by a line drawn from the southern bend of the
Tees to the mouth of the Humber along the course of the Wiske, the
Swale, and the Ouse. These again he has further sub-divided into vice-
counties, the total number of which is 112. The East Humber sub-
province contains two of these vice-counties, South-east Yorkshire and
North-east Yorkshire, the boundary between which is the same as that
between the east and north ridings. The West Humber sub-province
contains three vice-counties, South-west Yorkshire, Mid-west Yorkshire,
and North-west Yorkshire. The boundary between the two former of
these extends from the Ouse, along the course of the Aire, to the neigh-
bourhood of Skipton, and then across to Lancashire: that between the
two latter is a line drawn along the summit of drainage between the TJre
and the Swale.
But if our special object be to estimate, not the distribution of the flora
of the whole island, but of that of the county only : if we wish to trace
each species throughout the extent of its surface more accurately than
could be done by ascertaining in how many of the sub-provinces it occurs;
and to obtain a closer idea of the area of each, and the proportion which
it bears to the general mass of the vegetation, it will be needful to descend
a step lower into detail. With slight exception, not only the county, but
each of the five sub-provinces is bounded by natural limits. They may
therefore be readily subdivided into natural botanical districts, each of
which will comprise the whole or some definite portion of the basin of a
river, and can therefore be very easily recognised in practice. The object
of the present sketch is to point out how the geological structure and
physical aspect of the county are mirrored and reflected in its vegetation,

and to suggest the means to he employed in tracing the links of connec-
tion and relations between them. For this purpose it will not be needful
here to enter into the details of the geography and condition of each of the
different river basins -which the county includes. My own attention, from
residing in the midst of it, has been more especially directed to the north
riding ; the surface of which embraces almost as wide a range of variation
as that of the whole county, and has been ascertained to produce all but
46 species which the county affords. I have therefore selected it for
illustration, and will proceed to give a brief and cursory account of the
prominent features of the respective districts which it comprises. I
would refer those who may wish to study the physical geography of the
county to the various works on the subject by Professor Phillips, especially
his latest, “ The Rivers, Mountains, and Seacoast of Yorkshire,” from
which many of the facts here brought under consideration have been
obtained.
As has been already explained in the Flora, the north riding consists of
a broad central vale, running north and south, between two groups of
hills, the eastern range of which has also a smaller depression both on
the north and south. Of these, the western series is the most extensive
and attains the highest elevation. The general slope of the surface is:
from west to east, and consequently the general flow of the river is in the
same direction. With the exception of a small tract of greenstone at the
north-western corner of the county, and a few inconsiderable veins and
dikes of plutonic origin, the mineral masses of the surface are all sedi-
mentary, and have been deposited during the primary and secondary
periods. In order of succession they are thus arranged from west to east;
each usually sloping more considerably in that direction than the whole
mass.

These strata have been many times elevated and depressed during the
period of their deposition : and a considerable portion of them must even
have been submerged since various members of the flora and fauna of
the county have occupied the regions which they now inhabit. The
prominent physical features which we observe have been gradually de-
veloped through the long succession of ages by the continual action of
water upon the surface. So that the strata formed of softer materials,
the sandstones and aluminaceous shales have wasted away beneath its
abrading influence, and now form the central vale and lower levels of the
county : whilst the oolites and still harder gritstones have better with-
stood its power, and now tower upwards as ranges of hills and moorlands
of greater or lesser elevation, margined by “grey cliffs and winding scars.’’
As may be seen at a glance by reference to the map, the three vice-
counties of the “Cybele Britannica” which are wholly or partially included
in the north riding, may be conveniently subdivided into eight districts,
founded upon the river drainage. Of these, North-east Yorkshire will
comprise five, North-west Yorkshire two, and Mid-west Yorkshire one-
If we also include the Ainsty, the vice-counties will contain respectively
five, two, and two districts, as below : —

Before proceeding to characterise these districts, it may be desirable to
dwell for a short time on the general features of the vegetation of the
three climatic zones.
As before stated, the lower, or with reference to the whole of Britain,
the midagrarian zone may be considered to comprise all that portion of
the surface which does not attain an elevation above the sea of about 300
yards. Consequently, it includes the whole of the central vale : on the
east, the vales of Cleveland and Pickering and the wide extent of the sur-
face of the oolitic moorlands, with the exception of the summit of Boseberry
Topping and a few other detached peaks ; and also a broad branched
serpentine strip which forms the watershed between the rivers Derwent,
Swale, Leven, and Esk : and on the west, narrow at first, but widening as
the rivers descend, the valley of the Tees to the neighbourhood of Hol-
wick and Mickleton, Swaledale to the vicinity of Muker, and Wensleydale
to the junction of the two forks of the Ure near Hawes. The great body
of its vegetation is made up of the species enumerated throughout the
work as belonging to the British type of distribution : but these mostly
ascend also into one or both of the upper zones. But those which make
up the three austral types (i. e. English, Germanic, and Atlantic,) seldom
pass up above the limits of the present zone. Some of them are com-
paratively plentiful, and are probably distributed at intervals throughout
almost the whole extent of its surface. As examples of this class, I may
mention Cornus sanguinea, Pulicaria dysenterica, Ranunculus arvensis,
Bryonia dioica, Rhamnus catharticus, Scrophularia aquatica, Acer cam-
pestre, Convolvulus sepium, Tamus communis. But others, such as most
of the species previously mentioned as finding their boreal limit in the
county, are much more restricted in their range. The flora of this zone
is also characterised by the comparitive rarity within its precincts of
many of the more or less boreal species, as Trientalis europsea, Primula
farinosa, Listera cordata, Empetrum nigrum, Habenaria albida, Gnaph-
alium dioicum.
The middle, or with reference to the whole of Britain, the superagrarian
zone includes, on the east, the detached peaks before mentioned, and
the broad branched serpentine strip forming the watershed between
the rivers Derwent, Swale, Leven, and Esk: and on the other side
of the great central vale, that considerable portion of the western
24
part of the county, and the parallel ranges of hills between Teesdale,
Swaledale, Wensleydale, and Nidderdale, which lies above an elevation
of about three hundred yards, and below the limits of possible cultivation.
Its surface consists principally of broad bleak moorlands, sparingly inter-
spersed with cultivated land, and consequently there is not nearly so
much variety in situation as in the zone below, and the number of species
which make up its flora is comparatively small. The bulk of its vegeta-
tion is composed of species which would naturally be equally plentiful in
the lower zone, but which have there been considerably diminished in
quantity by drainage, and the operations of agriculture : as Calluna vulga-
ris, Erica Tetralix and cinerea, Nardus stricta, Juncus squarrosus, Scirpus
csespitosus. The species which make up the colonist class of citizenship,
many of which are plentiful in the lower zone, are here comparatively
rare, whilst the aliens are almost altogether wanting. Some of the species
which belong to the two boreal types of distribution (i. e. the Highland
and Scottish) appear in the riding to be peculiar to this zone, but they
are mostly of very limited diffusion. Of this class Saxifraga Hirculus,
Hieracium iricum and croeatum, Meum athamanticum, Arbutus Uva ursi,
Allosorus crispus, Equisetum umbrosum and variegatum, are examples.
Other species, as Draba incana, Rubus Chamsemorus, Saxifraga aizoides
and stellaris, Bartsia alpina, Gentiana verna, and Carex capillaris, are
common to this and the upper zone.
The upper or inferarctic zone comprises those mountain summits, about
twenty in number, near the western boundary of the county, which rise
above the limits of possible cultivation. Marked upon the map, the por-
tions of surface which it embraces appear to consist of two groups : one
of them a horse-shoe shaped tract encircling the head of Swaledale,
with several minor circular patches in its vicinity : the other a single
oblong streak between Lunedale and Teesdale. The flora of this zone is
made up of only a very small number of species, and is best characterised
by the absence of a large class of plants which are common in both the
zones of the Agrarian region, including all the more conspicuous trees
and shrubs, and the weeds which attend upon cultivation. A few, however,
of the species belonging to the Highland type of distribution, appear (in
the riding) to be peculiar to it. Amongst these are Myosotis alpestris,
(the most thoroughly boreal species which has been found in Yorkshire,)
Thalictrum alpinum, Helianthemum eanum, Dryas octopetala, Epilobium
alsinifolium, and Tofieldia palustris.
Reversing the order of the districts we begin with —
No. IX.— WEST TEES.
Drainage. — Taking its rise on the slope of Cross fell in Cumberland,
augmented by the drainage of the dreary moors of Milburn and Har-
thorpe, after spreading out into a tarn-like expansion, called the Weal,
and thus forming, for several miles, the boundary between Westmoreland
and Durham, the Tees introduces itself to Yorkshire, thundering over an
irregular series of basaltic cliffs, two hundred feet in height, called the
Caldron Snout ; and forms for the remainder of its course the northern
limit of the county. Below the waterfall, it is joined by the Maizebeck,
and flows towards the east in a broad rocky channel, margined on the
south by the scars of Cronkley, and on the north by Falcon Clints : and
after a few miles, it falls over a perpendicular cliff of greenstone 69 feet
in height, forming the High Force. Thence descending rapidly in a more
confined bed, it runs through a rich and well known botanical district,
under the bridges of Lower Cronkley and Wince, and advances for about
the next twelve miles in a south-eastern direction. Till its junction with
the Lune, opposite Middleton, a range of cliffs, gradually lessening in
height, runs parallel with it at some distance. Afterwards, the hills recede
and decrease in altitude : and the river flows past the villages of Romald-
kirk, Cotherstone, and Lartington, and is joined at intervals by the parallel
streams which drain respectively Balderdale, Grizedale, and Deepdale.
Below Barnard Castle it receives the Greta from the forest of Stainmoor ;
and thence, entering the central vale, it flow's with many sinuosities
towards the east, the district which it drains being considerably narrowed
in breadth.
Surface. — From the summit of Micklefell, 2580 feet in altitude, the forest
of Lune slopes gradually towards the east to Cronkley Scarrs ; and is
principally included in the arctic region. The moors to the south are
considerably less elevated, and the highest peaks do not exceed 1860 and
1448 feet. The surface ascends to the line of watershed between Greta-
dale and Arkendale, where Hoove and Baxton Nab nearly attain the upper
26
limit of the middle zone. The lower zone includes the whole of the
eastern portion of the district, the valley of the Tees till above its junc-
tion with the Lune, and the lower levels of the subordinate dales.
Structure. — The course of the Tees from the Caldron Snout to the High
Force runs over a mass of basalt, called the Whin Sill, which ascends
Maizebeck for about two miles, and attains an elevation of about 1800 feet,
in the almost inaccessible cliffs of Cronkley. By contact with the
plutonic rock, the narrow' ridge of scar limestone which borders it, the
oldest in our series of deposits, is in a great measure metamorphosed into
a coarsely granular “ sugar limestone,” wdiich produces several plants not
found elsewhere in the riding. Next in succession, over Micklefell and
along the western margin of the county, extend Yoredale limestones, which
also cover a small district south of the junction of the Greta with the
Tees. Whilst on the east, the broad moors which surround the dales of
of the Balder and Greta, and extend to the summit of drainage on the
south, consist of millstone grit. In the neighbourhood of Croft, are
traces of Permian deposits, wdth their botanical concomitant in Anemone
Pulsatilla : and from thence to the boundary of the district stretches the
new red sandstone of the central vale.
No. VIII.— WEST SWALE.
Drainage. — The Swale takes its rise by numerous branches amongst
the lofty series of undulated summits which form the boundary between
Yorkshire and Westmoreland. From Hollow Mill-cross the main branch
flows due east for about five miles, receiving numerous inconsiderable
feeders both from the north and the south. Opposite the celebrated Auld
Gang lead mines it curves towards the south, the valley widening to en-
circle the curious conical mound of Keasdon, 1639 feet in altitude. South-
ward of this, below the small town of Muker, it again advances due east,
and maintains that direction till Swraledale loses itself in the great
central vale. Margined by the scars of the gradually descending summits,
at Reeth it receives the considerable stream which rises near Baxton Nab
and drains Arkengarthdale. Below Grinton the dale widens and becomes
more highly populated and cultivated. At Marske the river receives an
addition from the moorlands on the north ; and after flowing past Rich-
27
mond it is joined by another branch from Barningham and Dalton. Below
Catterick it winds through a more level country, in a south eastern direc-
tion. At Deeming it is further augmented by Grim scar Beck, which rises
amongst the group of summits a few miles south of Beeth, and flows past
Bellerby and Bedale. After its junction with the Wiske, near Sandhutton,
the Swale forms the boundary between the eastern and western sub-pro-
vinces. The district which it drains on the west becomes much narrower,
and does not contain any town of importance. Opposite the mouth of
Codbeck is Leckby Carr, the original British station for Scheiwhzeria
palustris. At My ton the Swale unites with the Ure.
Surface. — A considerable portion of the watershed of the Swale is
included within the arctic region. Between Arkendale and Swaledale, the
summits of Rogan’s Seat, Watercrag and Pinseat attain respectively an
elevation of 2207, 2192, and 2125 feet. Round the head of Swaledale
several peaks exceed 2000 feet. Of these, the loftiest is Hugh Seat (2330
feet). Along the summit of drainage between the Swale and the Yore, rise
the peaks of Shunnor Fell (2351 feet), the second in altitude of the moun-
tains of north Yorkshire, Lovely Seat (2216 feet), and Bakestone Edge
(1983 feet), The remaining portion of the more considerable moorlands,
including the upper part of Arkengarthdale and the valley of the Swale
above Muker, are comprised in the middle zone. The whole of the eastern
part of the district, from Richmond racecourse, on the north side of the
river, and Downholme moor, on the south, with the lower levels of the
dales, is included in the lower zone.
Structure. — The principal summits at the head of Swaledale, and the
lower levels of the vallies of the Swale and Arkle, are formed from lime-
stones of the Yoredale series. The surface of the more elevated portions
of the moorlands sloping gradually towards the east, consists of millstone
grit. New red sandstone strata, overlaid with diluvial clays, fill up the
eastern part of the district. At Topclifle the river touches the lias forma-
tion.
No. VII.— URE.
Drainage. — Wensleydale is formed by the junction of two branches,
Widdale and Cotterdale, which unite below the town of Hawes. The
river is supplied by numerous small streamlets, which rise amongst the
28
lofty moors of Mossdale and Abbotside, some of which, are diversified by
waterfalls of considerable height. During the earlier part of its course it
runs in an eastern direction, almost parallel with the Swale, at a distance
from it varying from five to seven miles. Opposite the town of Askrigg it
receives a considerable stream from Seamer water, which rises amongst
the summits of Stake Fell and Yokenthwaite moor. The district which the
Ure drains on the north is necessarily very limited, and seldom exceeds
three miles in breadth. It includes the town of Leyburn, and the ruins of
the castle of Bolton. Below Askrigg are three interesting waterfalls, the
largest of which, Millgill Force, is 69 feet in height. There is another,
rather lower down, at Aysgarth, after which the river is considerably
augmented by the united streams which flow down Bishopdale and
Waldendale. Passing beneath the peak of Penhill, (1817 feet) at Middle-
ham, it is joined by the Cover, which rises near to Little Whernside, not
far from the head of Nidderdale. At Witton and Jerveaux Abbey it enters
the central vale, and flows in a south eastern direction for the remainder
of its course. From Masham to its junction with the Swale, it forms the
boundary between the north and west ridings.
Surface. — As mentioned under the last district, a portion of the water-
shed between the Swale and the Yore attains the arctic region. At the
point of juncture between the north and west ridings, the peaks of Wild
Boar Fell, Swarth Fell, Bow Fell, and Sayls, attain or exceed 2200 feet.
Between Widdale and Cotterdale, and towards the head of the former
dale, and along the summit of drainage between Wensleydale and Kettle-
welldale, are several fells of considerable altitude, with lateral ridges
between Bishopdale, Coverdale, and Nidderdale. The remainder of the
western portion of the district, including the valley of the Ure above
Hawes, and the moorlands to Leyburn and Witton, are comprised in the
middle zone. The lower zone includes a narrow strip of surface which
stretches along the north side of the river to its junction with the Swale,
and the less elevated portions of the various dales.
Structure. — As before mentioned, the watershed between the Swale
and the Ure consists of mill-stone grit strata, which also descend to the
river at Masham, and form the summit of drainage between Bishopdale
and Coverdale. The surface of the remainder of the western portion of
the district consists of a series of limestones of earlier date, which have
20
been called “ Yoredale limestones,” from their abundant developement
here. A narrow ridge of magnesian limestone borders the millstone grit
at Tanfield and Shape. The remainder of the district is included in the
great central vale.
No. VI.— NIDD AND WHABFE.
Dra.ina.ge. — The Ainsty is a highly populated and richly cultivated
district, only 82 miles in superficial area, bounded on three sides by the
rivers Nidd, Wharfe, and Ouse, and on the west by a line drawn from
Colthorpe to Thorpe Arch. The southern portion is drained by a small
stream, the two branches of which rise near Wighill and Marston. It
flows towards the south-east and falls into the Wharfe, near Bolton
Percy. On the north, also, a rivulet rises-near Bilton, and falls into the
Ouse opposite Overton.
Surface. — The surface is very little undulated or elevated; so that no
portion of the district rises above the isothermal line of 48 degees. Near
Askham are a series of low wooded bogs, which produce in abundance
the very local Carex paradoxa.
Structure. — The surface of nearly the whole of the district, like that of
the remainder of the great central vale, consists of new red sandstone
strata, overlaid with diluvial deposits. A narrow terrace of magnesian
limestone bounds them on the west, and margins with cliffs that portion
of the rivers.
No. V.— EAST TEES.
Drainage. — From the southern bend of the Tees below Darlington, it
flows with many windings in a north-eastern direction, past the towns of
Yarm and Stockton, and expands into an estuary at Middlesborough.
The ballast hills around its mouth afford an interesting ground for the
botanist, as they produce several species which have originally been in-
troduced from the south of England, or the Continent. The marshes in
the neighbourhood of Coatham and Bedcar are intersected by numerous
salt water ditches, (locally called stells,) which supply various maritime
rarities. The Leven is formed by the union of two branches, which unite
near the town of Stokesley. The northern of these rises near Codhill,
30
not far from the source of the Esk, and flows down Kildale, past Stokes-
ley and Ayton ; the other on the slope of Burton Head, the loftiest of
East Yorkshire summits. The united streams wind towards the west, and
soon receive, on the north, the Tame, which rises on Eston Nab and flows
past Ormesby and Nunthorpe ; and on the south several inconsiderable
feeders from the banks of Dromanby and Carlton. At Budby, the Leven
is joined by the stream which drains Scugdale, and turns in a northern
direction. After flowing past Hilton and Kirklevington, it enters the Tees
below Yarm.
Surface. — The summit of the drainage of this district, on the east and
south, along Boseberry Topping (1022 feet), Burton Head (1485 feet),
Wainstones (1800 feet), Cranimoor (1428 feet), Dromanby Bank and Carl-
ton Bank (1325 feet), is included in the middle zone; but the surface
descends abruptly, and the whole of the remainder of the district, though
considerably undulated, does not rise above the lower zone.
Structure. — The southern summits consist of a series of arenaceous
and argillaceous deposits, corresponding to the Bath oolite of the south
of England. Below these, a broad band of the shales and marlstones
of the lias extends from the coast at Marske, along the upper branch of
the Leven, to Osmotherley. The north-western portion of the district is
included in the great central vale.
No. IV.— ESK.
Drainage. — The Esk is formed by the junction of two streams which
unite near Castleton. The northern of these rises in the neighbourhood
of Boseberry Topping, not far from the head of the Leven, and flows
down Sleddale and Commondale. The southern is supplied by the drain-
age of Baysdale and the two divisions of Westerdale. From their point
of junction, the river flows due east for about fifteen miles, through a
well-wooded valley, interesting alike to the botanist and the antiquarian.
It is joined by numerous rivulets during its course, each of which takes
its name from the dale through which it runs. Between Castleton and
the town of Egton are Danbydale, Fryopdale, and Glaisedale on the south,
and Stonegate Gill on the north, each three or four miles in length. At
Grosmont Bridge the Esk is joined by a branched and more considerable
31
stream from Goathland Dale, upon which is the waterfall called Thomas-
son’s Force. Below Sleights the hills decrease in altitude, and the valley
expands after its junction with Iburndale. Near Ruswarp the river curves
slightly towards the north, and is joined by Cockmill Beck, and soon after-
wards falls into the sea at Whitby. From Robin Hood’s Bay to Saltburn,
the coast is margined by a series of elevated cliffs, which rise near Boulby
to an elevation of 681 feet. Near Staiths is the mouth of a small stream,
of which the two principal branches rise on the northern slope of Danby
Beacon. Another rivulet rises near Freeburgh Hill, and falls into the sea
at Skinningrove. A more considerable beck rises below the recently dis-
covered station for Gyperus fuscus, at the head of Sleddale, and flows past
Guisborough and Skelton to Saltburn. From Saltburn to Marske the
coast is guarded by a series of bold rocky embankments, gradually des-
cending northward into a range of loose sand-hills, firmly bound together
by the interlacing roots of Ammophila arundinacea and Triticum junceum.
Surface. — North of the Esk, from Roseberry Topping and Guisborough
Moor, the hills slope gradually eastward, so that only the western ridge
and a few detached summits attain the middle zone. The watershed on
the south of the river declines in the same direction, from Burton Head
(1485 feet) along Farndale Head (1412 feet), Shunnor Hoe (1404 feet), and
Lilia Cross (1000). The remainder of the surface belongs to the lower
zone.
Structure. — The moorlands, both north and south of the Esk, consist of
strata belonging to the Lower Oolite formation. Beneath these extend the
shales and ironstones of the lias period, filling up the lower levels of the
dales, and composing the whole of the cliffs at many parts of the coast.
No. III.— DERWENT.
Drainage. — South of Robin Hood’s Bay, the cliffs which margin the
coast attain their highest elevation in High Peak (585 feet), and then
descend gradually towards Scarborough and Filey. At Scalby is the
mouth of a small stream about five miles in length, which runs past
Cloughton and Burniston. The Derwent rises only three miles from the
coast, about midway between Whitby and Scarborough. At first, it flows
southward, down Harewooddale, Longdale, and the valley of Hackness,
32
during which portion of its course it is joined by numerous inconsider-
able feeders. Above Ganton, it receives the Hartford river, which rises
in the immediate vicinity of Filey. Afterwards, it turns towards the west,
and forms, for the greater part of the remainder of its course, the south-
ern boundary of the riding. At Newstead, it receives a rivulet from
Ellerburn and Thornton. Above Malton, it directs its course towards the
southwest, and is joined by the Eye — a river which is formed by the
union of numerous small streams of considerable length, which rise
amongst the -moorlands on the North; each of which flows down a dale
for the early part of its course, and then descends into the level country
of the vale of Pickering. From east to west in order of succession are,
the Hole of Horcurn, (in which grows Gornus suecica,) Newtondale, Bose-
dale, Farndale, Brantsdale, Bilsdale, and Snailesworth, with several others
of lesser extent. The vale of Pickering contains the towns of Helmsley,
Kirby-Moorside, Malton, and Pickering, and the abbeys of Bievaulx and
Byland. An eastern branch from Byland and Ampleforth, aud another
from Hovingham and Slingsbyjoin the Eye near Brawby. Below Barton,
the Derwent receives a further augmentation from the Howardian hills,
which rises near Bransby, not far from the head of the Foss. At Helms-
ley, about five miles north-east of York, it directs it course due south,
and entirely leaves the north riding.
Surface. — The summit of drainage along the Hambleton Hills on the
west, and the watershed between the Derwent and the Esk, with lateral
ridges of surface between several of the dales, are included in the middle
zone. The whole of the remainder of this extensive district, sloping
towards the east and the south-west, belongs to the lower zone.
Structure. — The level district called the vale of Pickering, extending
from Filey on the sea-coast to Kirby-Moorside and nearly to Helmsley on
the west, consists of Kimmeridge clay strata. Eound these, embracing
the southern portion of the moorlands, and extending through the level
country to the Derwent below Malton, occur upper oolitic deposits. The
next in succession, occupying the surface of the summit of drainage on
the north and west, and a district in the level country to the south of that
last mentioned, are oolites of an earlier era. Below these is a narrow band
belonging to the lias period, and south of all a small portion of the great
central vale.
33
No. II.— EAST SWALE.
Drainage. — The Wiske rises near Osmotherley, and curves towards the
west. Near Cowton it receives the drainage of several small lakes, and
directs its course due south; forming, till its junction with the Swale, the
boundary between the eastern and western sub-provinces. Below North-
allerton it receives a small stream, which flows in a south-western direc-
tion from Hartsey and Brompton. The Codbeck is formed by the union
of two principal branches. The northern of these rises near Osmotherley,
and flows past Sigston and Crosby ; the other on the slope of Black Ham-
bleton, flowing past Kepwick and Borrowby. The united streams wind
towards the south-east, and receive at Kilvington a rivulet from the vicinity
of F eliskirk. Passing Thirsk, below Gristh waite they are joined by a con-
siderable stream, which flows past Boltby and Sutton-under- Whitstonecliff,
and fall into the Swale below Topcliffe. At Cundall, the Swale receives a
rivulet on the east, which rises on the southern slope of Hood Hill, and
runs past Coxwold and Sessay.
Sureace. — The middle zone includes the summit of drainage between
the Swale and the Derwent, along Black Hambleton (1246 feet), Kepwick
Bank (1148 feet), Boltby Scar (1106 feet), Whitstonecliffe (1078 feet), and
Rolston Scar. The surface sinks into the central vale by a single abrupt
descent, and the bank is interspersed by several series of irregular cliffs
and precipices. Below two of these the lower strata have slipped away,
and lakes have been formed at Gormire and above Kirby Knowle. The
first of these is about a mile in circumference ; the other is more elevated,
but considerably smaller. The remainder of the district is all comprised
in the lower zone.
Structure. — The surface of the moorlands consist of oolitic strata in
the form of coralline limestone, calcareous gritstones, and clays. Below
these extend a series of liassic deposits of varied mineral character, which
form a broad belt on the east and south of the oolite, extending from Os-
motherley to the neighbourhood of Northallerton and Thirsk, and touch-
ing the Swale at Topcliffe. The remainder of the district, like the rest of
the central vale, is filled up with new red sandstone strata, overlaid with
boulder (post pliocene) diluvium,
c
34
No. I.— OUSE AND FOSS.
Drainage. — The Swale and Ure unite together at My ton, and wind
towards the south-east, the united streams taking the name of Ouse. At
Newton the river receives a considerable stream from the north-east, the
northern branch of which rises near Easkelf and Easingwold, and the
southern in the forest of Galtres. The Foss takes its rise in the un-
dulated distript about Gilling and Coxwold, and flows towards the south-
west past Stillington and Strensall, joining the Ouse at York.
Surface. — Though considerably undulated at its north-eastern corner,
none of this district rises above the lower zone.
Structure. — The greater part of the surface of this district consists of
the new red sandstone strata of the central vale. On the east, these are
margined by a broad band of lias which contains the town of Easingwold.
At present it will not be needful to describe the drainage districts which
make up the east and west ridings, but they may be easily traced upon a
good map of the county. A few words in conclusion, respecting the
position in which we stand and the path for future exertion, may be not
unnecessary. So far as we are enabled to judge from theoretical con-
siderations, the species of Exogens, Endogens, and even of Acrogens,
which the county, viewed as a whole, produces, have been ascertained and
determined with a tolerably close approximation to completeness : although
no doubt a few others, which have not yet been detected within our limits,
will be discovered by future research. But we can only form a general,
and in consequence, necessarily a vague idea of the proportions in which
they unite together to form the general body of the vegetation, and the
manner in which is distributed over the surface. Leaving the Thallogens
out of consideration, the determination of the Flora of Yorkshire is, to all
intents and purposes, accomplished; but the general outline only is traced
of the Gybele of the county. The kaleidoscope is formed and the objects
supplied; but the mirrors require nicer adjustment before we can obtain
symmetrically combined and accurate reflections. The most useful
35
manner, therefore, in which those who wish to advance our knowledge of
the geographical botany can employ themselves, is by tracing the range
of the species, both commoner and rarer, which the county affords ;
horizontally, by means of the sub-provinces, vice-counties, and subordinate
districts : vertically, by using the climatic regions and zones, and the lines
of mean annual temperature, as before explained. I shall be glad at any
time to receive lists of species observed within any of the districts of
superior or inferior grade, especially those which make up the north
riding, and facts respecting the zones which they inhabit, or the eleva-
tions which they attain. It is only by accumulating details in the first
instance, and afterwards analysing and comparing them, that we can
ascend to theconsideration in a satisfactory manner, and finally arrive
at a correct appreciation of general principles and relations.
GENERA AND SPECIES,
ARRANGED ACCORDING TO THE FOURTH EDITION OF
® foutott Catitlogue.
ORDER I. RANUNCULACEiE.
CLEMATIS.
1. C. Vitalba, Linn. Denizen. English.
Perhaps indigenous in hedges near Whitby — Rev. A. Bloxam.
Naturalised on the green, Richmond — James Ward. “ Really wild,”
in a hedge at the bottom of a wood on the margin of Guisborough
moor, below the Warren, three quarters of a mile S.S.E. of Guis-
borough, and nearly that from any house — William Mudd, 1854.
This species might perhaps be placed in the native category without
much risk of error, but has not yet been ascertained to occur in the
chalk district of the south-east of Yorkshire.
THALICTKUM.
2. T. alpinum, Linn. Native. Highland.
3. T. minus, Linn. Native. Scottish.
A glaucous and glandular variety of this species (T. pubescens,
Schreb.) is plentiful amongst the sand hills about Coatham, Redcar,
and Marske (Vide Phytologist, vol. iv. page 933.) Probably it is the
ordinary littoral form of the species.
3. * T. flexuosum, Reich. Native. Scottish.
Malham Cove, near Settle! — J. Dugdale. Bolton Woods, Wharf-
dale ! — O. Lord. Mackershaw Woods, near Ripon — T. Simpson.
Bank of the Tees, below Holwick and Wince Bridge, plentiful.
Banks of the Wharf, at Thorparch. Probably T. majus of the Flora
is wholly, or in greater part, identical with this species.
4. T. flavum, Linn. Native. English.
38
ANEMONE.
5. A. Pulsatilla, Linn. Native. Germanic.
6. A. nemorosa, Linn. Native. British.
7. A. apennina, Linn. Alien.
In a wood near Otley, 1843 — Miss Garnett. (Phyt. i. 650.) Amongst
the pleasure grounds at Clifton Castle, near Bedale — W. Mudd.
8. A. ranunculoides, Linn. Alien.
Naturalised near a garden at Everingham — James BacJchouse, Jun.
ADONIS.
9. A. autumnalis, Linn. Alien.
A casual straggler in cornfields and cultivated land; Crathorne,
near Yarm, 1852 — W. Mudd.
MYOSUBUS.
10. M. minimus, Linn. Native. Germanic.
Fields S.E. of Welburn — Teesdale. (Bot. Guide, 682.) Hedgebank
behind Thirsk church, sparingly, 1848 ; not found since.
RANUNCULUS.
11. R. aquatilis, Linn. Native. British.
Of the three forms defined in the third edition of Babington’s
Manual, heterophyllus is common in pools and still waters, trichojohyl-
lus in ditches and slowly running streams, and subjpeltatus less fre-
quent in similar situations. A maritime variety which closely
resembles R. confusus of Godron, is plentiful in the ditches in
Coatham marshes ; and a much branched state of the same also
occurs, with leaves, flowers, and fruit, only about one-third the usual
size. ( Vide Phyt. iii. 721 and 933.)
11.* B. confusus, Godr. Incognit.
The series of forms which the Coatham salt marshes afford, were at
first referred to this species (Phyt iii. 721 and 933) ; but when speci-
mens were submitted by Mr. H. C. Watson to Professor Grenier,
Godron’s coadjutor in the preparation of the “Flore de France,” he
considered them to belong to R. aquatilis.
11.* R. circinatus, Sibth. Native. English.
Ponds and ditches, apparently rare ; Applegarth, near Richmond —
James Ward. In the ditches of Potteric Carr, near Doncaster —
O. A. Moore, Rev. W. W. Newbould. (Cyb. Brit. iii. 521.)
11.* R. fluitans, Lam. Native. English.
Slow streams and running waters, apparently rare. Skeeby Beck,
near Richmond — J. Ward. Plentiful in the Codbeck, below Dalton,
near Thirsk, and in the Swale, below Topcliffe and Leckby.

In similar situations ; not unfrequent. L. campestre of the Flora
also includes the preceding species.
71. L. ruderale, Linn. Alien.
Naturalised in considerable abundance amongst the Middlesborough
ballast hills, 1852. Modern confirmation of the stations recorded
in the Flora is desirable, before this can be accepted as a native.
At Coatham marshes I could find only Coronopus Ruellii.
L. sativum, Linn. Alien.
River banks and waste places ; an occasional straggler from culti-
vation.

On the coast, near Scarborough — Dr. Wasse. On the Castle hill,
Scarborough — TheaJc stone’ s Guide. Included, also, in Ibbotson’s list
of the plants of North Yorkshire. The Coehlearia of Scarborough
Castle hill, and the dried specimens which I have seen thus label-

In clover fields and on cultivated land ; not unfrequent, but with-
out permanence in its localities. Discovered in 1842, at Nether
Poppleton, by Mr. Wetherhill, of York, growing with Veronica tri-
phyllos — R. Spruce. (Phyt. i. 842.) On fallows with a sandy loam
soil at Cantley, near Doncaster — Rev. G. E. Smith. (Phyt. ii. 283.)

The locality mentioned under A. hispida, in the Flora, rests upon

sence of recent confirmation or dried specimens, I hesitate to accept
it as referring to this species ; seeing that it lies considerably beyond
its clearly ascertained climatic range in this country.

96. B. stricta, Fries. Native. Local.
In similar situations to the preceding, with which it usually grows
intermixed ; locally plentiful. Clifton Ings, Tilmire, and other
places near York; discovered by Mr. Borrer, in 1842. Between

Barnard Castle, 1851.
BRASSIGA.
113. B. oleracea, Linn. Denizen. English?
1 place this as a denizen, in consequence of information received
from my friend William Mudd, who collected it to the north of
47
Staithes in 1852. He remarks, in reply to my inquiries respecting
its condition, that it grows in considerable abundance amongst the
coast cliffs, principally in inacessible situations, and that it lias
quite the appearance of being an indigenous inhabitant of the
locality.
114. B. campestris, Linn.
114.* B. Rapa, Linn.

British.
Root slender, produced (B. campestris) or caulescent fleshy (B.

Rapa as the cultivated, and B. campestris as the colonist form of
this species. Vide Koch, Synops. FI. Germ. p. 55, and Watson, Cyb.

* The peculiar difficulties which attend the study of the fruticose brambles have deterred nearly all
resident botanists from attempting to determine the forms which have fallen under their notice ; and so
many alterations in nomenclature have been rendered needful by advancing knowledge within the last
few years, that it would he unsafe to rely with confidence upon most of the few localities which have
been reported. The accompanying list, therefore, is scarcely more than a resume of the specimens pre-
served in my own herbarium. The idea of comparitive rarity and frequency is necessarily formed alone
from the district which has been examined, the limits and extent of which may be gathered with tolera-
ble accuracy from a consideration of the stations quoted. In fixing the names, I have been guided less
by the verbal descriptions of authors than by an extensive collection of dried specimens, mostly authen-
ticated or furnished by those botanists who have studied the genus most successfully in this country.

* In this genus, I have slightly departed from the classification followed in the London Catalogue.
The species which Britain produces want carefully working out hy watching the range of variation of the
characters of each in its natural localities and under cultivation. The “ Symbol se ad Historiam Hieraci-
orum ” of Fries has given a vivid impulse to the study of these plants, and it is hoped that we may he
enabled, before long, to have the nomenclature of the British representatives of the genus settled upon
a substantial and satisfactory basis. But at present, whilst undergoing the process of renovation, they
are involved in a considerable amount of confusion. I have published specimens of most of the York-
shire forms in the “ Hieracia of North Yorkshire and Teesdale.”

Jun., has ascertained that these plants approach each other very
closely in cultivation ; so that we may take for granted, that they
are all one and the same species. But it would seem doubtful,
whether the Teesdale cerinthoides is the true plant of Linnseus. It
differs considerably from specimens for which I am indebted to
Mr. H. C. Watson, of the plant he mentions, Cyb. Brit., ii. 59.

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.

“ R. limosus ( Thuill . par. 182). Enlarged petals, ovate oblong, with two setaceous teeth on each
side, but quite entire at the elongate lanceolate apex: each bearing a tubercle: teeth shorter than the
enlarged petals : whorls somewhat remote leafy : leaves linear lanceolate or elongate lanceolate, nar-
rowed into the petiole. E. maritimus, Hoffm not Linn. R. palustris, Koch.
“ R. Steinii (Bede. fl. v. Frankf. 165). Enlarged petals, ovate, with two setaceous teeth on each side,
but quite entire at the elongate apex: each bearing a tubercle : teeth shorter than the enlarged petals:
whorls remote, lower leafy, upper naked: radical leaves broadly oblong, with a cordate base: stem
leaves lanceolate from a rounded base, upper lanceolate. Allied to R. conglomeratus and sanguineus,
but differing by the subulate dentate teeth of its perigone ; and from R. limosus by its perennial root,
and by its two or three times broader root leaves, with cordate bases.”

The localities mentioned under this species in the Flora rest
upon the authority of Dalton. With reference to the observations
in the Cybele Britaniea, I may remark that Lilia cross is precisely
1000 feet above the level of the sea ; but that the original manu-
script record runs, “ Banks of Derwent, near Lilia cross, &c.,” so
that it is probable that the Carex descends considerably lower
than 1000 feet.

degree, by intermediate stages of gradation ; but deserve further
investigation than they have yet received, before this point can

ADDENDA.
Whilst tlie work has been passing through the press, various ad-
ditional items of information have come to hand. In order that it may
he rendered as complete as possible, I subjoin in this place a notice of
some of the more important. — J. G. B.
80. C amelina sativa, Crantz.
Cornfields at Maltby, near Doncaster — Rev. G. E. Smith. Fallow
fields near Roche abbey — Rev. G. Finder.
87. Cardamine impatiens, Linn.
Dowker gill, near Sedbergh — Rev. G. Pinder.
179. Arenaria tenuifolia, Linn.
The Rev. G. E. Smith informs me, that he has collected this spe-
cies on “ rocks at Maltby; ” thus confirming the accuracy of Salt’s
report, and Air. Moore’s supposition ( vide pp. 51, 52).
Erodium cygnorum, Nees.
The Rev. G. Pinder has obligingly furnished me with specimens
of a plant identified by Babin gton with E. cygnorum, of Nees von
Esenbeck, collected on “ waste ground near Guiseley,” during the
present summer (1854). It is a native of West Australia, and he
suggests that the seeds have been introduced amongst wool.
262. AIedicago denticulata, Willd.
On old rubbish heaps near Guiseley, 1853— Rev. G. Pinder.
329. Potentilla verna, Linn.
Smeaton crags, near Doncaster — P. Inclibald. Went vale, near
Pontefract — W. Robinson.
357. Alchemilla alpina, Linn.
I am informed by the Rev. G. Pinder, that this species occurs
also in Dent dale, but not so plentifully as about Cautley,
372. Epilorium virgatum, Fries.
The Gormire plant is identified by Babington with that described
in the “ Manual of British Botany,” under this name. During
the present season, I have observed it on the edge of Guisborougli
moor, near Highcliffe, and also amongst the ballast hills at Mid-
dlesborougli.
180
340 — 3. Rubus suberectus, Anders.
In. tlie plantation near the vicarage, at Cantley — Rev. G. E. Smith.
All.''' Sedum eupestre, Smith .
This species grows upon garden walls at Rievaulx. Perhaps the
reported Guisborough station may he (or have been) similar in
character.
520, Gallicm pustllum, Smith.
During the present season, I have collected this species on the
rocky hanks of the Ure at Ays garth force, in Wensleydale.
A Galium which grows amongst the rocks at the White force,
in Teesdale, is probably the G. commutatum of Jordan; but
whether it is a form of this species or G. saxatile, or may he speci-
fically distinct from both, I cannot at present undertake to
suggest.
572, Hieracium caesium, Fries.
With reference to specimens from the Hambleton hills, of the
plant given under this name, which I submitted to his considera-
tion, M. Jordan, of Lyons, remarks — “II est, a moil avis, tres
different de 1’ H. caesium, Fries.”
582.* Hieracium gothicum, Fries.
On the top of the moor above Ingleby Greenliow, Cleveland ! —
W. JVLudd.
580. Hieracium crocatum, Fries.
On the top of the moor above Ingleby Greenliow, Cleveland, with
II. gothicum and umbellatum ! — TP. Mudd.
670. Campanula patula, Linn.
Between Swinton and Doncaster — Rev. G. F. Smith.
707. Pyrola rotundifolia, Linn.
In the sixth edition of Hooker and Arnott’s “ British Flora,” I
observe that “ Castle Eden, Dene, Yorkshire” is given as a locality
for this species. My herbarium contains an example which may
be regarded as representing the variety arenaria, from that
locality, which is, however, not in Yorkshire, but near Hartle-
pool, in Durham.
745. Verbascum vtrgatum, With. Alien.
Specimens of this species, from three Yorkshire stations, are pre-
served in my herbarium ; but at present it is known only as a
casual straggler from garden cultivation.
928. Schoberia fruticosa, Meyer. Alien ?
In considerable abundance on the sea-bank to the east of the
docks at Middlesborougli, 1854! — T. Simpson. It is quite proba-
ble that the plant may be a veritable native at this station ; but,
as it is so near the docks, I prefer to regard, for the present, this
point as uncertain. I have myself seen tivo or three bushes of
it, during the present season, on the side of the docks nearest
the ballast hills.
181
944.'^ Rumex aquattcus, Linn.
Roadside between Redmire and Carperby, in Wensleydale, and
banks of the Ure, near Wensley, 1854 — R. D. Carter and J. G. B.
946. Rumex alpinus, Linn. Alien.
I am indebted to the kindness of the Rev. G. Pinder, for speci-
mens of this species from “ Menstone, near Otley, Wharfdale
Tulipa sylvestris, Linn.

Alisma natans, Linn.
Upwards of half a century after its original publication, the Rev,
G. Pinder has confirmed the accuracy of Teesdale’s suggestion,
that this plant grows in the vicinity of the mere at Hornsea.
The same learned botanist believes that he has also observed it
from a train “ in ditches by the railway side, between York and
Sherburn.”
. Scirpus glaucus, Smith.
Amongst the docks at Middlesborough !— W. Foggitt.
Carex laevigata., Smith.
Dr. Ainley informs me, that this species is frequent in the vicinity
of Bingley.
Glycerta distans, Wahl.
Plentiful between Sheffield and Gainsborough — Rev G. E. Smith.
Lastrea spinulosa, Presl.
Woods at Arncliffe, near Egton, Eskdale — Rev. G. E. Smith.
IIymenophyllum Wilsoni, Hook.
Howgill fells, near Sedbergh — Rev. G. Pinder. Foal’s foot, Ingle-
borough— J-. Nowell and A. Stansfield.
Phascum patens, Hedw.
Wood near the end of Gilla leys, Castle Howard; sparingly —
A. 0. Black.
Sphagnum laricinum, Spruce.
“ Sphagnum laricinum is known only as found in Terrington earr,
by Mr. Spruce. I can make nothing of it, except as an anomalous
form of S. contortum, and have accordingly noticed it as a variety
of that species, differing in no essential character, unless in the
cortical cellules of the stem, which are not in a single row or
stratum, auin all normal states of contortum. As for the reticu-
lation of the leaf, I have aquatic states of contortum perfectly
coincident” — W. Wilson, in litt. Nov. 1th, 1854.
Gymnostomum conicum, Scliwaegr.
Banks near Feliskirk, and roadside between Thirsk and Sutton —
J. II. Davies.
Gymnostomum Donianum, Smith.

near Scarborough — A. 0. Black.
Weissia verticillata, Schwaegr.
Banks of the Ure, at Ays garth force, Wensleydale.
Grimmia maritima, Turn.
On the cliffs south of the Spa, at Scarborough — A. 0. Black.
Didymodon aquaticus.
“‘Didymodon aquaticus, Brid V mentioned in Spruce’s list, has
reference to a moSs which I found near Malham, and could not
then identify. Since then, I am satisfied that Dillenius’ moss,
referred to by Bridel, is Racomitrium protensum ; and the Mal-
ham moss I now regard as a very peculiar barren form of Tortula
fallax, having the leaves much recurved and squarrose. It may,
however, turn out to be a distinct species, whenever fruit shall
be obtained. This form or species, I think, will be found, rather
frequent in limestone districts, on banks” — W. Wilson, in litt.
Nov. 7th, 1854. I have lately received fine specimens of the same
moss from Ingleborough, (coll. J. Nowell,) and noticed it in the
vicinity of Thirsk.
Didymodon capellaceus, Sivartz.
Very fine at the White force, and other places in Teesdale — A. 0.
