EX quo Catalogum plantarum circa Cantabrigiam nascentium in lucem emisi, alias aliquam multas stirpes in agris oppido ei vicinis sponte proveni­entes animadverti; quas quoniam jam di­lectissimae nutrici almae Academiae non sponte supremum vale dixerim, & in trans­marinas regiones mox discessurus sum, in unum fasciculum collectas Phytologiae studi­osis seorsim exhibendas censui. Seorsim in­quam, nam quoad Cantabrigiae vixi, cùm nova eis quotannis accessio fieret, penes me diu servâsse, nec antea publici juris fecisse decreveram, quàm Catalogum generalem, quem meditabar, plantarum omnium quae in Anglia & insulis adjacentibus sponte ori­untur penitus absolvere & unà evulgare po­tuissem. Huic scilicet studio sedulus incubui, & plerasque omnes etiam remotissimas hu­jus regni provincias in hunc praecipuè finem obivi & perlustravi. Verùm quoniam opus illud ut debitam perfectionem acquirat, plu­rium adhuc annorum observationibus indi­get, plurimaeque subinde emergunt difficul­tates, [Page]quibus omnibus superandis & expedi­endis nescio an totum quod superest vitae suf­ficiat, mutatâ sententiâ Catalogum ab Ap­pendice separandum judicavi, & nec illius editionem praecipitandam, nec hujus suspen­dendam. Atque haec breviter de Addendis. Jam quoniam errata etiam nonnulla in Ca­talogo Cantabrigiensium plantarum depre­hendi, quamvìs nec adeò gravia sint quin ea sine insigni famae detrimento supprimere & dissimulare potuissem, nec adeò obvia & ma­nifesta, ut à quovis facilè detegi mihique exprobrari possint, nè tamen pudor meus studiosae juventuti fraudi foret, impetravi à me ipse ea ingenuè aperire & veritati po­tiùs aliorúmque commodis quàm existimati­ani propriae inservire.

Addenda.

  • ALcea vulgaris J. B. Dod. Ad. Lob. Clus. hist. vulga­ris major C.B. vulgaris sive Malva verbenacea Park. Malva verbenacea Ger. Vervain mallow. In Kingston wood.
  • Alsine aquatica surrectior J.B. forté. Plantula Portula­cae aquaticae affines. Small upright water Chickweed, called by some Blinkes. On the boggy grounds about Gam­lingay. This is very frequent in many other places of Eng­land, in watery grounds, and bogs, especially where the ground is sandy.
  • Alsine hirsuta altera viscosa C. B. Spuria 4 Dod. The broader leaved Mouse-ear-Chickweed. Haec omnino di­stincta est ab Alsine arvensi hirsuta magno flore C.B. Nimirum florem habet minorem, evanidum; folia bre­viora, latiora, pallidiora; caules magìs erectos quàm Alsine myosotis hirsuta Ad. Quinetiam tota planta [caules, folia flores] in siccioribus viscosa est. This flowers before the other.
  • Alsine fontana credita flosculorum foliolis non divisis. An Alsine fontana Ger? aquatica media C.B? Foun­tain-chickweed. Ramulos habet tenues, infirmos, hu­mi procumbentes; folia pallidè virentia, acutiora quàm Alsine media; Flosculorum foliola non ut in illa ad unguem usque fissa, sed integra & in acutum desinentia. Found in many places but especially about Balsham. There is no reason why this should be called Fountain-chickweed: we never found it growing in the water. Floret circa initium Aprilis & deinceps.
  • Aparine semine laeviore. Cleavers or Goose-grass with smoother seed. Haec (quod sciam) nondum descripta est. Inter segetes passim.
  • Auricula leporis minima J.B An Bupleurum minimum Col. Park? An Bupleurum angustissimo folio C.B? The smallest Hares-car. By the way-side as you ride to S Neotes [Page]beyond Elles-ly. This I have found in sundry other places in England, viz. in the road to Stilton a little beyond Huntington. At Maldon in Essex, about and in the yard where they use to build vessels, near Fullbridge; and upon the banks by the channel side there. Confer cum descri­ptione J. Bauhini.
C
  • CAlamintha flore minore, odore pulegii J. B. odore pulegii Ger. altera odore pulegii foliis maculosis Park. pulegii odore sive Nepeta C.B. Field Calamint. Hanc plantam in Catalogo habui pro Calamintha vulgari: Calamintha tamen quam modò vulgarem puto circa Chestertonum & alibi sponte provenit.
  • Cardui polyacanthi prima species Ger. emac. Aculeosa Gazae Ad. Polyacantha Tab. ex sententia Johnsoni. Thistle upon Thistle.
  • Cardui polyacanthi secunda species Ger. emac. Sylve­stris 3 Dod. Polyacantha Lob. Carduus spinosissimus capitulis minoribus P. B. Welted Thistle with small flowers. Horum descriptiones quaere inter nomina cap. 490. l. 2. Ger. emac. The first of these grows com­monly on ditch sides and among bushes. The second plen­tifully on the banks of the river Cam toward the isle of Ely and elsewhere.
  • Caryophyllata vulgaris flore majore C. B. Common A­veus with a large flower. This was found in the fields somewhere about the Town, and brought into our gardens: I do not remember the place.
  • Catanance leguminosa quorundam J. B. Ervum sylve­stre Ger. Dod. Sylvestre sive Catanance Park. La­thyrus V, sive sylvestris minor C. B. Crimson grass Vetch. Found by M r Dent about Hadnam in the isle of Ely.
  • Chamaedrys spuria foliis pediculis oblongis insidenti­bus. Wild Germander with leaves standing on long foot­stalks. This plant (as I am informed from M r Goodyer) [Page]is figured and described by Fabius Columna p. 288. un­der the title of Alysson montanum.
D
  • DRyopteris Tragi Ger. emac. Filix querna C. B. pu­mila saxatilis prima Clus. pumila saxatilis prima Clusii Park. ramosa minor J. B. The lesser branched or female Fern. Observed by M r Dent on Kings-Col­ledge walls.

  • Gramen cyperoides angustifolium paniculâ multiplici. Narrow-leaved Cyperus-grass with many heads. On the banks of many ditches. I cannot find any figure or descri­ption of this. The panicles or heads grow èfoliorum sinu­bus one above another on the stalk, every hea [...] having a long leaf under i [...].
H
  • HElleboraster maximus Ger. maximus sive Consili­go Park. Helleborus niger foetidus C. B. Enne­aphyllon Plinii lib. 27. c. 9. Great bastard Hellebore or [Page]Bears-foot. At Cherry-hinton, in the hedges of a close near to the moor.

The flower of this plant doth much resemble the flower of Mouse-ear The leaf (as far as I remember) is not laciniated, but in some waved a little.
  • Hypericum majus sive Androsaemum Matthioli Park. Hypericum Androsaemum dictum J. B. Androsae­mum Hypericoides Ger. alterum foliis Hyperici, quod aliquibus Hypericoides C. B. Tutsan-S t Johns wort. In dumetis & sepibus passim.

  • Muscus triangularis aquaticus. Triangular water-moss. Valdè [...]milis est hic muscus terrestri denticulato Lo­belii. In the river beyond Stretham ferry. I found it since in a well in Carnarvan-shire in Wales, called Gods well, but always immersed in the water. I took it once to be the Fontalis minor lucens J. B. but he doth not [Page]mention the leaves of that to be so disposed all along the stalk as to make it appear triangular.
O
  • ORchis sive Testiculus Sphegodes hirsuto flore J. B. An Orchis fucum referens colore rubiginoso C. B? Quid sibi velint Gerardus & Parkinsonus no­strates in Orchidum historia non satìs perspicio: puto tamen Parkinsonum hanc intellegere per Orchidem suam Sphegodem alteram, sed eam perperam descri­bit (alis sc. purpurascentibus, cùm hujus ex luteo vi­rescant) Fortè Gerardo Testiculus vulpinus major Sphegodes. The green-winged Humble-bee Orchis. Floret circa finem Aprilis & initium Maii, unà cum orchide morione foemina.

Haec duo sc. exi­stimat Jo. Bauhinus non specie differre, sed staturâ & magnitudine tantúm. Godded Mous-ear. In some closes on the north side of Gamlingay.
  • Plantaginella palustris C. B. Plantago aquatica mini­ma [Page] Clus. aquatica minima Clusii Park. The smallest water Plantain. Secus vias ubi per hyemem aquae stagnârunt. Aut haec eadem est Plantagini aquaticae minimae Clusii, aut ei valdè affinis: in omnibus non respondet ejus descriptioni.

Q. R.
  • RAnunculus hirsutus arvensis flore minimo. Field Crowfoot with a small flower. An haec planta jam ante ab aliis edita & descripta sit, mihi compertum non est, nec ad manum sunt autores quos consulam. Folia hirsuta pallidè virent, Flores lutei sunt, omni­um quos ego in Ranunculis observavi minimi. Plan­ta ipsa, quantùm memini, non erigitur, sed denso velut cespite terram operit.
  • Ranunculus rectus foliis pallidioribus hirsutus J. B. apud quem plena habetur & accurata descriptio. Upright pale-leaved sweet Crowfoot. In locis humidis & lutosis, praecipuè ubi per hyemem aquae stagnâ­runt.
  • Ranunculus rectus, non repens flore simplici luteo J. B. Ranunculus surrectis cauliculis Ger. pratensis erectus acris an dulcis C. B? pratensis erectus acris vulgaris an dulcis Park? Upright Field Crowfoot. An hic acris sit, an dulcis mihi non certò constat si bene memini quem mihi gustare contigit dulcis fuit. Attendatur descriptio Jo. Bauhini. In pratis.
  • Rubia cynonchica J. B. VI sive cynanchica C. B. Synanchica Lugd. p. 1125 Ger. Squinancy-wort. On Gogmagog hills. and Newmarket heath.
  • Ruscus J. B. C. B. Park. Ad. Lob. Ruscus sive Bruscus [Page] Ger. Myrtacantha, murina spina Lob. ico. Oxymyr­sine Ang. Butchers broom. About Anglesey-abbey. Ra­dix hujus plantae est è numero quinque illarum ape­rientium famosarum. Reliquae sunt Apii, Asparagi, Foeniculi, Petroselini.
S
  • SCabiosa vulgaris flore pleno. Double flowered Sca­bious. In hujus flore foliola fistulosa quae per am­bitum non ampliora sunt quàm interiora, ut in vul­gari Scabiosa; sed aequalia perinde ac in succisa. Ca­ret insuper Staminulis illis capitatis quae in vulgari cernuntur. In many closes about Teversham and else­where together with the common sort.
  • Selinum Sii foliis Ger. Park. Honewort. On many ditch­banks about Cambridge. Haec planta affinis est Amomo Germanico dicto, & omnino pastinacis accenseri de­bet, quibuscum & odore & sapore & externa spe­cie convenit.
  • Surpylli vulgaris primum genus J. B. The other com­mon Mother Thyme. In many places together with the common sort. Consule J. Bauhinum de Serpyllo vul­gari, qui exactè notat differentias inter has duas species.
T
  • Trifolium pumilum supinum flosculis longis albis non­dum descriptum P. B. Dwarf Trefoil with long white flowers. At Gamlingay by the lanes-side as you go up from the Town to the Windmils.
V
  • VIrga aurea Ger. Matth. Dod. ut. aurea vulgaris Park. aurea vulgaris latifolia J. B. aurea IV. sive an­gustifolia minùs serrata C. B. Golden Rod. In some pastures about Gamlingay.

Emendanda, in quibus quaedam mu­tanda & supplenda.

A
  • ABrotanum campestre & Abrotanum inodo­rum] Si placet expungantur ambo. I beleeve nei­ther of them is to be found on Newmarket heath, at least that part of it which is in Cambridge-shire.
  • Allium sylvestre] Huic adde Synon: Allium campestre junci-folium capitatum majus C. B.
  • Anagallis aquatica I, & Anagallis aquatica III C. B.] Et haec pariter expungantur. Ego sc. has differentias apud nos nunquam potui observare. D. Nid ex conjectura & praesumptione Catalogo inseruit, quoniam Botanici vulgò & praecipué Jo. Bauhinus passim & promiscuè quatuor varietates hîc recensitas crescere affirmat.
B
  • BLitum album minus] I now think the plant we found in Kingston wood to be the same with the com­mon red Blite▪ and that it differed in colour by reason of the shadiness of the place where it grew.
  • Bursa pastoris minor] Haec planta non videtur specie dif­ferre à Nasturtio Alpino petraeo. Certè Jo. Bauhinus Nasturtium petraeum Tab. hujus synonymum facit. Ve­rùm nihil temerè pronuncio.
C
  • CArduus lanceatus angustifolius] facessat: nec enim puto apud nos in hoc genere observabile esse ullum discrimen.
  • Carduus nutans] An Carduus spinosissimus latifolius Sphaerocephalus vulgaris C. B? Intelligo jam hunc censeri Carduum moschatum Ger. Nec tamen mo­schi odor in floribus mihi unquam perceptus, neque florum color pallidè purpureus est sed saturatior, nec tandem figura ipsa respondet.
E
  • [Page]EChium alterum] Fateor me nondum percipere specificum aliquod discrimen inter Echium vulgare, & illud quod apud nos in muris passim provenit. Alii strictiùs examinent.
G
  • GEranium malacoides sive columbinum minus] Mihi non satìs constat an plantula quam hîc intel­ligimus omnino eadem sit specie Geranio columbino minori C. B.
  • Gramen alopecuroides minus spica asperâ brevi] Hoc Botanici Londinenses Gramen cristatum nuncu­pant, nec ego abnuerim.
  • Gramen caninum] Hoc idem est quod Jo. Bauhinus describit sub titulo allato: ideóque retractanda sunt quae hîc annotavi, nec enim ipse paniculam obser­va veram ante quam Catalogum edidi: sed aliis te­merè credidi.
  • Gramen hirsutum majus] Suspicor jam Gramen hoc non differre specificè à Gramine exili hirsuto, sed m [...]gnitudine tantùm aliísque accidentibus, ratione loci in quo crescit.
M
  • MOllugo montana sive Gallium] Haec duo synoni­ma Rubia sylvatica altera Gesn. & Matrisyl­va 2 Trag. huc non pertinent sed ad Molluginem Dodonaei primam, quae rotundam habet caulem & erecta est.
  • Nondum mihi planè compertum est, quò referen­da sit haec planta quae passim in sepibus crescit; viz. an ad Molluginem, quo hîc retulimus, an ad Ru­biam sylvestrem. Non dubito quin eadem haec sit quam Jo. Bauhinus descripsit sub titulo Rubiae an­gulosae asperae, quin & Botanici Londinenses Rubiam sylvestrem eam nominant. Mihi verisimile est sub utroque titulo eandem plantam describi. Dubitat [Page]scil. Jo. Bauhinus an Rubiae suae angulosae respon­deat Mollugo Clus. necne. Jam vero Mollugo Glusis eadem est Mollugini primae Dod. Mollugini monta­nae Ger. Mollugini vulgatiori Park. Nam figura ubi­que eadem; atque tum figura tum descriptio huic plantae conveniunt: at Rubiae sylvestris apud Ger. & Park. descriptiunculae non item.
  • C. Bauhinus malè applicat Molluginem Clus. & Molluginem montanam Ger. Mollugini suae primae seu montanae ramosae latifoliae; cùm haec synonyma ad secundam spectant non minùs quàm Mollugo prima Dod.
O
  • ORiganum vulgare] The plant that grows in Bowyers close at Cherry-hinton is not this, but Clinopodium vulgare. We mistook it when it was young.
P
  • POlygalon Cortusi] Pro hoc substitue, Ferrum equinum Germanicum siliquis in summitate C. B. cujus synonyma quaere in Addendis.
R
  • RAnunculus hederaceus rivulorum, &c.] Plantae hujus flores albi sunt, non lutei prout conjecta­bamur; & in aquosis passim oritur: Proinde syno­nyma allegata ei non respondent, nisi fortè in trans­marinis floris colore variet.
S
  • SAxifraga Anglica Occidentalium] loco Saxifra­gae Anglicae alsinefoliae Ger. emac. substitue Sy­nanchica Lugd. p. 1125 Ger. emac. & adde syno­nyma Rubia cynanchica J. B. VI, sive cynanchi­ca C. B.
  • Saxifraga graminea pusila] I finde upon comparing that this is the same plant described by Johnson upon Gerard under the name of Saxifraga Anglicana alsinefolia or Pearlwort.
T
  • [Page]TIthymalus helioscopius [...] Hujus altera species quam folio non crenato & minorem dix mus ea­dem est cum Peplo sive Esula rotunda Herbario­rum; quam vide in appendice priore.
V
  • VIcia parva sive Cracca minor cum siliquis pluri­mis hirsutis d [...]leatur▪ Bis enim ponitur, su­perius sub Araco.
