Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, lies in the Bay of St. Malo, off the north-west coast of France, in lat. 49° 15’ N. and long. 2° 10' W. The distance from the French coast is about 16 miles on the east and about 30 on the south. The shape is a rough parallelogram, the sides of which are indented on the east, south, and west by sandy bays. The length (from east to west) is about 11 miles, and the breadth about 54. The longest diagonal (N.W. to 8.E.) measures about 13 miles. The total land area is about 45 square miles, and the acreage 28,717 (64,613 vergées). The general character of the surface is a flat plateau, sloping gently from north to south, and intersected by a number of nearly parallel valleys which run right across the island, so that almost the whole of the drainage finds its way to the south coast. The north coast is harbourless and fringed with high cliffs and precipitous rocks. The great sandy waste of St. Ouen’s Bay occupies almost the whole of the west side. On the south and east the sandy bays of St. Brelade’s, St. Aubin’s, St. Clement’s, and Grouville follow one another in the order named. In St. Aubin’s, St. Clement’s, and Grouville Bays a tract of low-lying alluvial land, formerly marshy but now drained and cultivated, intervenes between the edge of the plateau and the sea. In the south-west there is a remarkable accumulation of blown sand known as the Quenvais. There is no hill* in Jersey, as distinguished from the cliffs on the coast and the sides of the valleys. The streams are neces- sarily mere rivulets, and the only piece of water of any importance is St. Ouen’s Pond. Noury, p. 156. * The highest points in the Island are Mont Mado and the cliffs to the west of Bouley Bay, each 473 feet. vi FLORA OF JERSEY. From a physical point of view, Jersey is a part of France. Like the other Channel Islands, it is merely an excrescence upon a submerged platform of rocks which extends under water from the French coast. An elevation of land to the extent of about ag 30 fathoms would fill up most of the Bay of St. nsted p and. ates Malo, and the surrounding sea is so full of rocks and ae reefs (some of them, Les Iles Chausey, Les Min- quiers and the Feréhos Rocks, of considerable extent) as to render the navigation difficult and dangerous in hazy weather. At present the sea appears to be gaining very slowly upon the land. Without accepting the venerable fable that the Bishop of Coutances was once able to cross the silver streak that then divided Jersey from France on a plank, it may safely be assumed that the Island was once much larger than it is now. The fall of the tide, which is sometimes over 40 feet, lays bare enormous stretches of wild, desolate rocks which were once land; and at various points of the coast detached rocks may be seen which are covered with the same superficial deposits as the nearest shore, and are obviously nothing but broken fragments of the land, and not rocks which have emerged from the sea. Again, there are traces of a ‘* sub- merged forest’ in St. Ouen’s Bay, near L’Etac, and the character of the peat deposits on the low-lying land seems to suggest a derivation from a larger land area than the present. On the other hand, the presence of raised beaches at various levels seems to prove that in still earlier times the island was buried more deeply than it is now in the sea.* The rocks of Jersey consist almost entirely of granite (or syenite), metamorphic schists and porphyries, with an ancient conglomerate in the north-east. It is doubtful whether there is any unaltered sedimentary rock in the Island. Chalk and limestone are entirely absent. In- equalities in the original surface are largely filled up with super- ficial quaternary deposits of brick clay or brick earth, generally unstratified. In some of the low-lying districts (e.g., under St. Helier’s) there are deposits of peat, gravel, and stiff blue clay. Noury, p. 148. Noury, pp. 140- 144. Noury, p. 103. * The best account of the geology is contained in ‘“ Géologie de Jersey,” by Father C. Noury, 8.J. Cf. also Dr. A. Dunlop's paper “On the Super- ficial Deposits of Jersey and Guernsey,” in the Transactions of the Guernsey Society of Natural Science for 1897. INTRODUCTION. vii The granitic and metamorphic rocks are all of enormous antiquity, none later than the Cambrian formation. The whole of the Secondary and Tertiary series are entirely unrepresented. A few remains of animals haye been found in the quaternary deposits, but fossils can hardly be said to exist. On the other hand, to the mineralogist “L’Tle de Jersey offre dans le voisinage immédiat du Cotentin un massif éruptif du plus haut intérét et riche en types vraiement exceptionels.” Noury, p. 135, Noury, p. 4. II. The climate of Jersey ig mild and equable. Summer merges almost imperceptibly into autumn, and autumn into winter, and cold weather is rare before the New Year. Severe frosts are very unusual, and snow seldom lies long upon the ground. The coldest months are January and February, the warmest July and August. The number of hours of bright sunshine is large,* but the air is always laden with moisture and often feels more chilly than the thermometer readings would seem to indicate. Since 1894 meteorological observations have been regularly and scientifically made at the Observatory connected with the Maison St. Louis by Father M. Dechevrens, 8.J. (see next page). These may be regarded as absolutely reliable, but eight years is a short period to take as a basis for meteorological means, and the amount of rainfall in the appended table is certainly too low, for 1899 and 1901 were exceptionally dry years. These figures are taken from the yearly réswmé published in the Bulletins Annuels of the Société Jersiaise. A paper on the climate of Jersey by the Rev. H. W. Yorke was printed in the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society (vol. xxv. No. 111) in 1899. His conclusions were based on data derived from several different sources, covering a far larger space of time (1844 to 1898), and may usefully be compared with the table already given. He gives the following yearly means :— Barometer ... 29°977 inches Sunshine......... 1930 hours Shade Temperature ... 52° Rainfall ............ 384 inches Coldest month (Jan.)... 42° Rainy days .......ceceeee 190 Warmest month (Aug.) 63° Hail or snow ...ecceeeseeees 30 Frost (in air) ...... 13 days Humidity ......:.cccee 82 Frost on grass...... 49 days Temperature of sea ...... 54° * 1930 on an average of 15 years.

For atleast two centuries Jersey has been a much-cultivated island. As early as Dr. Falle’s day there was “little barren ground,” and ‘not a wood, hardly a thicket or coppice”; and though he and later writers speak of the thickly wooded appear- ance of the country, they all ascribe it to the trees which bordered every hedgerow, and to the small size of the fields. In the eighteenth century the chief production was cider, and the land was largely occupied with orchards. Falle* thought that no country produced so much cider, not even Normandy, though little had been made in the time of William the Third. In 1808 more cider was still made than in any other equal area in Europe.| In 1888 it was still the chief export,{ but potatoes were becoming important. Now the orchards have to a very large extent dis- appeared, and most of the land is devoted to the cultivation of the profitable but prosaic early potato, to make room for which much rough land has been doubtless broken up, and many wooded hillsides deprived of their covering of trees. After the potatoes, which are dug in May and June, a crop of “roots” of some kind generally follows. In the sandy fields in low-lying parts of the coast, lucerne and clover have been sown for at least a century and a half, and with the seed have been introduced several Continental plants which have established themselves and become naturalised, e.g., Centaurea paniculata and Scabiosa maritima. Much of the waste land which once existed has been brought under cultivation within the last fifty years, and some of the most interesting Jersey plants have been destroyed. St. Peter’s and St. Lawrence Marshes have been drained; so has the marshy tract which once existed between St. Helier’s and Samarés. The whole character of the sandy bays is being gradually altered by the sea-walls which are being built in various parts. The Bay of St. Aubin’s, a great part of which was within living memory much as Nature made it, is now occupied with an almost unbroken succession of houses, and an imposing Promenade. The process will doubtless continue. At the present time Jersey presents six different kinds of station, and each, to a very large extent, has its own flora. (a) Sandy beaches, sand-dunes, and sandy fields near the sea. * Falle’s ‘‘ Caesarea,” p. 154. + Lyte’s ‘ Jersey,” p. 32. } Inglis, “ Channel Islands,” p. 123. * FLORA OF JERSEY. (6) Granite sea-cliffs. (c) Salt marshes—these have almost entirely disappeared. (d) Rough moorland and hillsides. (e) Ordinary, cultivated, flat table-land. (f) Sheltered, moist valleys and low-lying meadows. It is worth noticing that most of the plants of 5. and W. Europe, which form the most interesting feature of the Jersey Flora, affect station (a). IV. Sources of information as to the Botany of Jersey. In the introduction to the “ Primitie Flore Sarnice” (1839), Babington gives a short list of his authorities. He had remark- ably little to go upon, and only two points deserve to be noticed. (1) He drew attention to the plants noted as having been found in Jersey by Dr. Sherard in Ray’s Synopsis (1680-1690). These are interesting as being the earliest Jersey records. There are only eleven species, identified by Sir J. HE. Smith with Chara gracilis, Cynosurus echinatus, Bromus madritensis, Briza minor, Phalaris arundinacea, Scirpus pungens, Helianthemum guttatum, Bartsia viscosa, Scrophularia Scorodonia, Echium plantagineum, and Gnaphalium luteo-album. (2) [have taken the trouble to exhume from the Report of the Jersey Agricultural and Horticultural Society for 1839, the list of plants mentioned by Babington as having been published by Professor La Gasca, of Madrid. It is dated ‘‘ London, October 4, 1834,” and was sent by Dr. Lindley (who ought to have known better) to Colonel Le Couteur, the President of the Jersey Society. It need only be said that this list is so full of obvious absurdities that it is absolutely valueless. Native and cultivated plants, plants that do occur and plants that do not and never did, are all jumbled together in inextricable con- fusion. I have ignored it, and have not included his plants even in the List of Ambiguities and Errors. Requiescat in pace. The ‘ Flora Sarnica” itself was, as Babington himself says, the result of ‘two summer visits” to the Islands in 1837 and 1838. It was also written when the author was quite a young man. These two facts are sufficient to account for its incompleteness. But it is also in some ways too complete. He records some sixty plants on the authority of Professor La Gasca and Mr. B. Saunders. The latter was an intelligent Nursery gardener, and had a very interesting collection of cultivated plants, but he was not a sound INTRODUCTION. xi botanist, and his records are worth no more than those of the Professor. Again Babington records about twenty plants on his own authority which no one else has ever seen, e.g., Plantago media certainly does not occur,’yet he calls it ‘common.’ In some cases he may have been deceived with regard to the leaves of plants which were not in flower. On the other hand, there are some unaccountable omissions, e.g., Narcissus Pseudo-Narcissus, Centaurea aspera, Orchis Morio. The fact appears to be that he had not sufficient time to study the flora of the Islands properly, and yet naturally wished to make his book as complete as possible, and so occasionally jumped to conclusions on insufficient evidence. In the Bulletins Annuels of the Société Jersiaise the following lists have appeared :— (a) List of the Plants of Mt. Orgueil. E. Duprey, 1894, p. 265/f. (6) List of Phanerogams and Ferns. J. Piquet, 1896. (c) Supplementary List to (b), 1898. (d) List of Plants found on the Eeréhos Rocks. L. V. Lester, 1898. Mr. Piquet’s list is an advance in some ways on the “ Flora Sarnica.’’ Most of the imaginary species have disappeared, and it represents the results of fifty years’ study of Jersey plants by a keen and intelligent observer. But there is little or no attempt to distinguish between natives and the most obvious aliens, and comparatively few localities are given. The lists of plants in the two editions of Ansted and Latham’s “Channel Islands” are derived from the “Flora Sarnica”’ and Mr. Piquet, and contain little that is original. The various British Floras seem to depend almost entirely upon the ‘“ Flora Sarnica,’”’ and reproduce its errors with great fidelity, without contributing anything that is new. In Jersey, as elsewhere, the study of plants has often been pursued with more zeal than discrimination, and a large number of records exist which still ‘‘need confirmation,” and probably will continue to need it for some time to come. A list of these doubtful records is appended at the end of the Flora. I have excluded all plants which I have not either seen growing in Jersey myself or seen Jersey specimens of. The solitary exception, so far as I know, is Valerianella eriocarpa, which is admitted on the authority of Mr. J. W. White. It is a pleasant duty to express my gratitude to many botanists xii FLORA OF JERSEY. who have given me assistance in various ways. I owe much to Mr. J. Piquet, who has made the Jersey plants a lifelong study. I have also been allowed to inspect the collections of Mr. F. G. Piquet, the Rev. H. J. Sumner, Mr. 8. Guiton, and the Maison St. Louis. Two or three valuable collections of old Jersey plants had unfortunately been destroyed or dispersed before I had the oppor- tunity of consulting them. Mr. Arthur Bennett, always ready to place his wide knowledge and sound judgment at the disposal of others, sent a list of records, and has inspected many of the more critical plants. To Mr. F. N. Williams I owe the suggestion that I should adopt Engler’s system, and several valuable notes on Nomenclature. Help of various kinds has also been received from the authorities of the British Museum of Natural History, Messrs. H. and J. Groves, Mr. J. W. White, Mr. C. E. Salmon, Mr. C. P. Hurst, and the Rev. G. Henslow. The relation of the Jersey Flora to the general Flora of Europe, the origin of the various groups of species, and other questions of general interest are reserved to be dealt with in the Remarks upon the Flora of the Channel Islands in general at the end of the volume. V. The arrangement of the Flora is that of Engler’s “ Die Natiirlichen Pflanzenfamilien,” which is beginning to be adopted both on the Continent and in America. This is a new departure, which will possibly provoke adverse criticism. British botanists, as a rule, are very conservative: very few of them trouble them- selves with systems at all; they confine themselves chiefly to the study of species, and such species only as grow within their own area. If they are ever to emancipate themselves from the insular ideas which too often dominate the science, they will have to learn to look abroad, and realise that British plants grow in other places besides Great Britain and Ireland, and that the British Flora is only an insignificant portion of the Flora of the globe, and cannot profitably be studied in the twentieth century without reference to the Flora of other countries. The arrangement adopted in most, if not all, modern British Floras is based, either directly or indirectly, upon Bentham and Hooker's magnificent ‘Genera Plantarum ”’ (1862-1883). This work is, primarily, as its title represents it to be, an unsurpassed collection of generic descriptions of the highest possible merit; but it does not INTRODUCTION. xiii profess to offer any original system in a broad sense of the word. The authors adhere, in the main, to the system of Jussieu (1789), as modified by A. P. De Candolle (1813), and the work was published before the German systems of Eichler (1883) and Engler (1887-1897) were elaborated. The profound change in men’s views as to the import of Classification which has been introduced by the very general adoption of the ideas with which Darwin’s name is associated, to say nothing of the results of many years of very productive botanical work, is entirely unrepre- sented. If the same work were to be done over again now, would Sir J. Hooker consent to entangle himself in the trammels of Jussieu? It is hard to imagine it, nor is it easy to conceive any botanist who desired to grasp the arrangement of the Plant World as a whole, and to realise the relation of the various parts, revert- ing to the ancient order after having studied the system of Engler —unless indeed he were appalled at the prospect of a thorough- going rearrangement of his herbarium. But to most British botanists Engler’s system is entirely unknown, or known only as one among the many systems which they conceive of as annually produced by German industry. I will therefore venture to draw attention to some of the more important features. The Plant World is divided into four great divisions: (1) Myxo- thallophyta, with which this book has nothing to do; (2) Euthallo- phyta, represented here by the Characee; (8) Archegoniate, represented by the Ferns, Equiseta, and Isoétes ; (4) Phanerogams. The Phanerogams form two Sub-divisions: (1) Gymosperms, with six Classes (Cycadales, Benettitales, Cordaitales, Ginkgoales, Conifere, and Gnetales), all unrepresented in the Native Flora of the Channel Islands; and (2) Angiosperms, with two Classes (Monocotyledons and Dicotyledons). The Monocotyledons comprise eleven Series (corresponding to the ‘Cohorts’ of Lindley and the “ Alliances” of Prantl), each containing so many Families or Orders. The Dicotyledons are divided into two Sub-classes: (1) Archichlamydee, with twenty-six Series, and (2) Metachlamydex Sympetale, with eight Series. The unscientific division Incomplete disappears. Each Series contains so many Families or Orders, which are divided into Tribes, and the latter into Genera and Species. Sub-series, Sub-families, Sub-tribes, and Sub-genera are inserted as required, xiv FLORA OF JERSEY. There are thus eight main grades: Division, Sub-division, Class, Series, Family, Tribe, Genus, Species, and the various members in each grade are to be regarded as roughly on a level with one another. For instance, the Class ‘‘ Ferns,’ or the Class ‘“‘ Lycopods,” are to be equated, not with the various Families of the Phanerogams, but with the whole Class ‘‘ Monocotyledons ”’ or “‘ Dicotyledons.”’ An attempt is also made to keep the terminations of the various grades as far as possible the same. The Series mostly end in —ales, the Families in —ace@, the Sub-families in —idee, the Tribes in —ee, the Sub-tribes in —ine. The general principle underlying the whole arrangement is the representation of a gradual ascent from the less completely to the more completely organised, from lower to higher types. The Composite are regarded as the highest type, as exhibiting in the flower-head characteristic of the genus, the most complete instance of the subordination of the individual flowers to the benefit of the whole. The adoption of this principle naturally involves a complete change in the order of succession of the Families. It is generally recognised at the present time that no “linear” arrangement can truly represent the infinitely complicated relations between organisms which have been produced by the operation of the law of “ Descent with Modification.” There is no such thing as an unbroken succession of forms, and many groups lie quite off the line of normal development. But some systematic arrange- ment is a scientific necessity, and we are not yet in a position to construct a complete genealogical tree of the vegetable kingdom. At the same time there is no doubt that it is roughly true that a gradual ascent from the lower to the higher forms can be confidently traced. It may be asked, What security have we that Engler’s system is final, any more than that of Jussieu? No one supposes that it is final, but if the first explorers of a mountain-peak had refused to advance until they could see their way clear to the top, how many of the Alps or of the Andes would have been ascended ? Into vexed questions of nomenclature I have had neither time nor inclination to enter. The generic names are those of the “ Pflanzenfamilien.” The general tendency of the nomenclature is conservative, and will be very welcome to those botanists who INTRODUCTION. xv care more for the things which words represent than for the words themselves. Much misdirected learning and ingenuity have been expended of late years on the renaming of plants. In one case I have most reluctantly been obliged to suggest a name for a species transferred by Engler to a new genus, for which I have been unable to discover a published name. I have done my utmost to assign the various species to the right genera, but I can hardly hope to have entirely avoided errors. The assistance rendered by De Dalla Torre and Harms’ “‘ Genera Siphonogamarum ad Systema Englerianum Conscripta” has been invaluable as far as it goes, but that work is only completed as far as Guttiferee. Beyond that point I have extracted what was wanted from ‘‘ Die Pflanzenfamilien”’ itself. Engler’s ‘‘ Syllabus der Pflanzenfamilien”’ (Second Edition, 1898) is most useful, but does not descend lower in the scale than Sub-tribes, except to make mention of the more important genera and species. For the benefit of those to whom Engler’s colossal work is not easily accessible, an arrangement of the genera of British plants in accordance with his system is appended. It is based on the Ninth Edition of the London Catalogue, and is simplified by the omission in many cases of intermediate grades, such as Sub-series and Sub- tribes. The standard of the various Divisions can almost always be fixed by paying attention to the terminations. Sub-genera and Sections of Genera are omitted, as they would be practically useless without a list of the species which they include, and a complete list of species would be out of place in a small local Flora. In a few instances there is a discrepancy between the Syllabus and the larger work, e.g., Calamintha and Rhinanthus, which appear as genera in the Syllabus, are merged in Satureia and Fistularia respectively in Die Pflanzenfamilien. In such cases I have adopted in the Flora the name most familiar to British botanists. LIST OF THE GENERA OF BRITISH PLANTS.

In cultivated fields of T. incarnarum L. may occasionally be found plants with white or straw-coloured flowers (T. STRAMINEUM Presl. according to Druce, ‘‘ Flora of Berkshire ’’), This form needs to be distinguished from T. Motrnerti, which appears to be the wild form of T. incarnatum, and has normally white or very pale rose flowers. The pubescence of FLORA OF JERSEY, 97 the stem is also rather less copious and decidedly more appressed, and the heads of flowers are shorter. The whole plant, as would naturally be expected, is less luxuriant in growth, but the points of differerffe are very slight. T. Mottnerw is said to be indigenous in Cornwall, and “the wild plant ie exists in Spain, Sardinia, Algiers, and with less certainty in France, Italy, Dalmatia, the valley of the Danube, and Macedonia (De Candolle, *: Origin of Cultivated Plants”). It is not to be found in Normandy (Corbiére), and Lloyd and Grenier and Godron do not seem to distinguish it from T, strauineum Presl. The earliest Jersey specimen I have seen is dated 1869. 6.

Guernsey (G. RoBErTIANUM var. MopEsTUM). Normandy (frequent). W. France (common in the south). A rather marked variety of the preceding species. The points of distinction are: (1) The habit, erect or ascend- ing and not straggling or decumbent; (2) the almost total absence of the villous hairiness and characteristic odour of G. Ropertianum L.; (8) the much smaller petals, and finer yet stiffer stems and leaves; (4) it loves dry, open, sunny situations, often growing in almost pure sand. In habit the plant resembles G. Ltucipum L. I have little doubt that this is the plant known as G. PURPUREUM Vill. to the French botanists, and the same form (from Devonshire) was named “G. Ropertianum L. forma G. PURPUREUM Vill.e modestum Rouy et Fone.’ for the Bot. Exch. Club in 1898. On the other hand, it does not answer well to Villars’ own figure of the plant, if any reliance can be placed on that, as was pointed out to me by Mr. J. Britten. It is not the G. purpurEum of the Eng. Bot. and Forster, according to Mr. Arthur Bennett. 2. Eropium L’Hérit. 1. E. crcurarrum L’Heérit. Native. Sandy fields. Very common. April to October. Guernsey.

A plant of the Mediterranean region, very local in W. France and not native north of La Gironde (Lloyd): subspontaneous on the coast of Brittany about Brest (Liégard, “Flore de Bretagne,’’ an unreliable book). In the face of these facts as to the distribution, it can hardly be maintained that it is indigenous in Jersey. St. Ouen’s Bay is prolific in casuals and more or less naturalised aliens. Resembles 8. Conumparia, but belongs in reality to a different section of the genus (Vipua Coult.), which contains only 2 species and is thus defined by Lowe (‘‘ Flora of Madeira ”’) : “Tube of involucre 8-ribbed throughout from top to bottom : limb short, spongy, inflexed : calyx-tube sheathed at the base : limb narrow 5-setigerous, stipitate.” Now united with 8.

St. Ouen’s Bay. Frequent in the north of the Island. St. Catharine’s Bay. Samarés Meadows. Guernsey. Alderney. Sark. Very variable. The cliff form is very constant, and very different from the form of open, sandy fields. The bracts vary in colour from almost black to a delicate fawn-colour. The leaves also vary much in breadth. The forms seem in- extricable at present, even with the help of Mr. F. N. Williams’ elaborate examination in his ‘‘ Prodromi Flore Britannice Specimen,” and I follow Mr. Arthur Bennett's advice and ‘call them all C. niera for safety.” Scanrosa L. Native? perhaps only a casual. Sandy waste places. Very rare, July, August, FLORA OF JERSEY. The Quenvais. J. Piquet, sp. 1868! North end of St. Ouen’s Bay. Alderney (frequent). France. 3. C. Cyanus L. An occasional casual since Babington’s time. 4. C. paniculata L. 5. C. Naturalised alien. Dry,sandy fields. Rare. July, August. In profusion over a circumscribed area on uw hillside in the north of St. Ouen’s Bay, where it has been known for over 20 years: probably introduced, as Mr. Piguet suggests, with lucerne seed. A genuine 8. European species, not recorded, even as an introduction, from any locality in Normandy, Brittany, or W. France. In face of this it is impossible to claim it as a native. Not mentioned in the “‘ Flora Sarnica.” ASPERA L, Native or completely naturalised. Dry, sandy fields and hillsides. July to September. St. Ouen’s Bay, where it grows in dense masses in the north. L’Etac. La Roeque. A common 8. European species. In W. France it is very common in Charente-Inférieure, frequent in La Vendée, very rare in Loire-Inférieure, beyond which Lloyd regards it as introduced. ‘ Very rare and doubtless introduced in Nor- mandy” (Corbiere). In Guernsey Marquand ranks it as a “denizen: local and rare.” In Alderney there are “two patches.” In the former island it has been known for over acentury, andin Smith’s “ English Flora” (1825) it is recorded (sub C. Iswarpt) on the authority of Dickson from ‘t meadows and pastures in the isle of Jersey,” though Babington casts doubt on the record. Just possibly native, but St. Ouen’s Bay is prolific in casuals and semi-naturalised aliens. 6. C. Calettrapa L. Extinct: probably a naturalised alien, but it is impossible to say now. Near St. Peter’s Marsh. Bab. Near the Second Martello Tower, St. Aubin’s Bay. J. Piquet, sp. 1870! Casual in Guernsey. Common in Normandy and W. France. 7. C. solstitialis L. Casual, and not seen for many years, FLORA OF JERSEY. 153 Sands of St. Ouen’s Bay, near St. Helier’s. Bab. Occa- sionally in sandy fields on the coast. J. Piquet. 26. CuricHorium L, 1. C. Inryzus L.

Between St. Aubin’s and Portelet Bay. On the cliffs between St. Brelade’s and the Corbiére. Near St. Peter’s Church. L’Etac. Guernsey. Alderney. Normandy (rather rare). W. France. Var. Bauprsir (Loisel), which has all the achenes beaked, has been recognised by many authors as a mere figment. Heads representing the type and the variety may be found on the same plant. Lloyd raised the type from seeds of the variety, and even found starved plants on the sands of the west coast of France which had no beaked fruits at all. 2. H. rapicata L. Native. Waysides, meadows, sandy fields. Abundant. May to September. Guernsey. Alderney. Sark. France. 8, H. macunata L. Native. Cliffs on the coast. Very rare. July, August. Plentiful in a gully leading down to the sea close to Grosnez Castle, where it grows with the Cowslip—the only locality for either plant in the Channel Islands. One of the three native Jersey plants not found in either Normandy or Brittany. Rare in W. France, and not north of the Loire (Lloyd). A remarkably local plant throughout W. 154 FLORA OF JERSEY. Europe, appearing in an inexplicable manner in places widely separated from one another. The locality seems quite beyond suspicion: it is one of the wildest and least frequented spots in the island. Grosnez Castle is a ruin of venerable antiquity, of the history of which nothing is known. 29. Leonropon L. . L. airtus L. (Tarincta wirta Roth.) Native. Roadsides, dry fields, cliffs on the coast.

NATURALISED ALIENS AND CASUALS. VI. Loss To tue InDIGENOUS FLORA. VII. Minor Points OF INTEREST. Tue following list of plants is intended to represent as far as possible the indigenous Flora of the Channel Islands, including ‘colonists,’ 7¢.e., well-established weeds of cultivation, but excluding such as are certainly of foreign extraction, however abundant and widely diffused they may have become. The records for the other Islands have been taken from Mr. Marquand’s “ Flora of Guernsey,”’* but I have used my own judgment with the utmost freedom as to what plants should and what should not be included, especially in the case of Alderney and Sark, where Mr. Marquand seldom distinguishes natives from introduced aliens. I have also ruthlessly eliminated, as far as possible, all uncer- tainties and ambiguities, and in computing the various totals have taken no notice of the sign (?), which appears, even as it is, only too frequently. The standard of “species ’’ adopted is approxi- mately that of the species and sub-species of Hooker's ‘‘ Students’ Flora,” and of Corbiére’s ‘‘ Nouvelle Flore de Normandie,” a most useful book. For purposes of comparison it is useless to go lower down the scale. * Mr. C. P. Hurst has very kindly sent me a list of species which he has either discovered or rediscovered in Sark and Brechou. Eleven of these are included in the list; also Juncus capitatus, new to Alderney. 166 FLORA OF JERSEY, A list such as this is necessarily to some extent dependent upon the judgment of the individual who compiles it. Questions will arise, for instance, as to whether a plant is a-colonist or only a frequent casual. In the Jersey list Setaria viridis and Panicum Crus-galli are included, but not Lepidium Draba and Amarantus retroflexus. Another botanist might include, or exclude, all four. Again, it is difficult to know how to deal with such plants as Smyrnium Olusatrum and Cigopodium Podagraria, which are certainly relics of cultivation as a rule, but may well have been native once within the area. In such cases I have taken the Continental distribution as the best guide. No plant has been included, or excluded, without a deliberate consideration of its claims. Plants which were undoubtedly native once but have become extinct are included, as they form part of the indigenous vegetation. The first column is devoted to Jersey, the second to Guernsey (including the smaller islands of Herm and Jethou), the third to Alderney, the fourth to Sark (including Brechou). The last column indicates the European distribution. Where nothing is said the plant in question is found all over Europe, exclusive of the Arctic Circle. Plants marked “ Arctic”’ penetrate within the Circle. The other notes explain themselves. Considering the size of the area, the list is a long one, especially if the scant courtesy which segregate species and ambiguous records have received is taken into account.

The species peculiar to Sark are: Lysimachia nemorum L., and Orobanche rubra Sm. It will be seen that the difference between the floras of the various Islands is far greater than might have been expected. The islands are probably all of the same geological age. They are all excrescences upon the same submerged platform which projects from the coast of France and fills up the angle between the coasts of Normandy and Brittany. The geological features are the same in all, the bulk of the islands consisting of crystalline and meta- morphic rocks of great antiquity, overlaid in places with Quaternary deposits of gravel and clay, with low-lying sandy tracts on portions of the coasts. Limestone and chalk are entirely absent, The 188 FLORA OF JERSEY. general character of all the islands is that of flat or sloping table- lands, intersected by valleys to a greater or less extent. Nor does there seem to be anything in the differences of climate, so far as reliable data exist for ascertaining them, which can account for such differences in the vegetation. Over a comparatively restricted area, where more or less uniform conditions prevail, a much more uniform flora might have been expected, and there can be little doubt that at some remote period, when a far larger land surface was exposed, the flora was much more uniform. Whether the whole of the submerged platform was ever elevated above the surface of the sea since the arrival of our present species of plants it is impossible to say, but there is conclusive evidence of variations of level sufficient to cause a very great increase (and also decrease) of the present land surface. The islands were doubtless at some former period much more nearly connected with one another and with France, and may well have been covered with a more or less uniform vegetation of the Con- tinental type. The result of subsequent oscillations would be to destroy some of the rarer plants of the district by submergence, and to render others still more local than they were before. As the land area contracted the struggle for existence would become more intense, and the preservation of rare or delicate species more and more problematical, and these are just the conditions under which plants would tend to become local. If. in addition to this, it is supposed that the South European species which form the most interesting portion of the Channel Islands Flora, particularly in Jersey, were subsequent arrivals, the differences in the indigenous vegetation of the various islands seems to be to a certain extent accounted for. The presence of one or two of the maritime species peculiar to Guernsey may be explained by the fact that there are still salt marshes in that island, while in Jersey they have been drained and cultivated, and in Alderney and Sark they apparently never existed. III. ReLatTion oF THE CHANNEL IsLtanps F'LoRA To THE FLORA OF EUROPE IN GENERAL. The Channel Islands plants may be grouped as follows from the point of view of their European distribution ;— CHANNEL ISLANDS FLORA. 189 1. Plants which extend all over Europe, exclusive of thé Arctic. Regions: .isissussicinvensedes vever xesaeosss 340 2. Plants which penetrate into the Arctic Circle...... 161 3. Plants of Central and South Europe .............:000 102 4. Plants of North Europe .....ssccsseeseeseeceneeeeeaee eee 4 5. Plants of West and West Central Europe............ 29 6. Plants of South and West Europe ..............:08+ 59 Of the three first groups not much need be said. They repre- sent three plant-waves, as it were, which inundated Europe from the south-east after the close of the last Glacial Period, and their northern limit is simply fixed by the varying capacity of the species to withstand a decreasing temperature. They form the bulk of the Channel Islands Flora, and all belong to the main body of the Flora of Europe. The fourth group consists of those plants which have their home on the coasts and the moors of North Europe, and whose progress south is limited by the increase of temperature. This group, as was to be expected, is very poorly represented in Jersey, which enjoys a milder climate than its latitude would seem to entitle it to, owing to the benevolent influence of the Atlantic Ocean. The plants which may possibly be considered to belong to it are: Carex pulicaris L., Alsine peploides Wahl., Cochlearia officinalis L., C. danica L. These are to be regarded as related to the Arctic Circumpolar Flora. The fifth group may conveniently be subdivided into two. a. Plants of West Europe proper.—Asplenium marinum L., Dianthus gallicus Pers., Lepidium Smithii Hooker, Rhaphanus maritimus Sm., Sedum anglicum Huds., Ulex Gallii Planch., U. nanus Forst., Trigonella ornithopodioides DC., Euphorbia Port- landica L., Conopodium denudatum Koch., Statice lychnidifolia De Gir., Cirsium anglicum Lobel. b. Plants of West and West-Central Europe.—Mibora verna Adans., Scirpus pungens Vahl., Carex binervis Sm., C. punctata Gaud., Scilla festalis Salisb., Cerastium tetrandrum Curt., Mcenchia erecta Ehrh., Corydalis claviculata DC., Diplotaxis muralis DC., Crassula Tillea, Ulex europezus L., Hippocrepis comosa L., Hypericum pulchrum L., H. elodes L., Carum verticillatum Koch., Scutellaria minor Huds., Anthemis nobilis L. The origin of this group of plants is very doubtful. Some of 190 FLORA OF JERSEY. them, e.g., Lepidium Smithii and Rhaphanus maritimus, are apparently only specialised forms of species which belong to the general European Flora. Others, e.g., the three species of Ulex, suggest a connection with the so-called* “Atlantic” Flora of South-west Europe and the Islands of the Western Atlantic, which is better represented in the south of Ireland by Erica ciliaris L., E. vagans L., E. mediterranea L.,and Dabecia polifolia Don. All are species which are most at home on the Atlantic seabord, and thin out more or less rapidly as you advance east- wards. The sixth group is by far the most interesting, and deserves special consideration. The plants which it includes are: Gymno- gramme leptophylla Desv., Adiantum Capillus-Veneris L., Asple- nium lanceolatum Huds., Ophioglossum lusitanicum L., Isoétes Hystri« Dur., Phalaris minor Retz., Milium scabrum Merl., Lagurus ovatus L., Briza minor L., Festuca uniglumis Soland., Catapodium loliaceum Link., Scleropoa rigida Gris., Bromus madritensis L., B. maximus Desf., Scirpus Savii Seb. & Maur., Arum italicum Mill., Juncus acutus L., Scilla autumnalis L., Ruscus aculeatus L., Romulea Columne Seb. & Maur., Iris fetidissima L., Polygonum Raii Bab., P. maritimum L., Sueda fruticosa Forsk., Spergularia rupestris Lebel, Ranunculus ophio- glossifolius Vill., 2. cherophyllus L., Brassica Chetranthus Vill., Matthiola sinuata R. Br., Cotyledon Umbilicus L., Ononis recli- nata L., Trifolium maritimum L., T. Molinerii Balb., T. glome- ratum L., T. suffocatum L., 7. strictum L., Lotus hispidus Desf., L. angustissimus L., Ornithopus ebracteatus Brot., Erodium maritimum L’Herit., Linum angustifolium Huds., Euphorbia Peplis L., Lavatera arborea L., Frankenia levis L., Hypericum linarifolium Vahl, Ginanthe crocata L., Armeria plantaginca Willd., Statice binervosa G. E. Smith, Cicendia pusilla Griseb., Anchusa sempervirens L., Echiwm plantaginewn L., Linaria Pelisseriana Mill., Serophularia Scorodonia L., Sibthorpia europea L., Parentucellia viscosa Caruel, Rubia peregrina L., * Ido not use the term “ Atlantic” in Watson’s sense. He only took into account the British distribution of the plants in the formulation of his “ /ypes,” and though it was a great step at the time to emphasise the importance of geographical distribution within the area he was consider- ing, his divisions have done much to limit the views of British botanists, and to cucourage them to be content to neglect everything that lay out- side. We want a new set of types, based on the general European distri- bution of the plants, CHANNEL ISLANDS FLORA. 191 Inula crithmoides L., Diotis candidissima Desf., Centaurea aspera L. In this list are many species which are abundant in W. Europe. Many of them reach the southern counties of England, a few get as far as Wales, one or two as far as 8. Scotland, yet the base from which they spread is S. Europe. But besides them, there is a considerable number of plants whose proper home is on the shores of the Mediterranean, and which straggle up the west coast of France, becoming rarer as they advance towards the north. The names of these are printed in italics, and they constitute the most interesting element in the Channel Islands Flora. It is not difficult to explain their presence. It was to be expected @ priori that the mildness of the maritime climate of W. Europe would enable some of the southern plants to advance much farther north than is possible in the interior of the Continent, and experience has proved that this expectation has been justified; but few botanists would have expected to:find so bright a gleam of the sunshine of the Mediterranean so far north. This feature is emphasised by the presence of one or two naturalised aliens which have come from the south—Centaurea paniculata L., Scabiosa maritima L., Allimn triquetrum L., Briza maxima L., and Silene quinquevulnera L. The attention of an English botanist cannot fail to be imme- diately attracted by this Mediterranean element, which is certainly most conspicuous in Jersey. Some of the plants are abundant. Romulea Column covers the short turf all round the island in the spring, and Armeria plantaginea and Echium plantagineum form enornious sheets of colour in June andJuly. The abundance of the last-named plant is remarkable. It does not occur in the other islands, or in Normandy or Brittany, and is very rare north of the Gironde, but it must be regarded as native, for it was plentiful about St. Helier’s in Dr. Sherard’s day. Many of the other plants are plentiful enough in the localities in which they occur. Others, again, which are found in the southern counties of England begin to assume a southern look. The small species of Trifolium, for instance, grow far larger, and there is a form of Ranunculus Ficaria which is about half-way between the English plant and the 8. European var. grandiflora. Another interesting point is that the Channel Islands are apparently the extreme northern limit to which some of the 192 FLORA OF JERSEY. plants of this group have been able to attain. They have travelled up the coast of France so far, but been unable to cross the Channel. They are Gymnogramme leptophylla (Jersey and perhaps Guernsey), Ophioglossum lusitanicum (Guernsey), Isoétes Hystrix (Guernsey), Phalaris minor Retz. (if native in Guernsey), Milium scabrum Merl. (Guernsey), Lagarus ovatus (Guernsey), Bromus maximus (Jersey and Normandy), Dianthus gallicus (Jersey), Ranunculus cherophyllus L. (Jersey), Ononis reclinata (Guernsey and Alderney: alien in S. Scotland), Ornithopus ebrac- teatus (Guernsey, Alderney, and Scilly Islands), Statice lychnidi- folia (Alderney), Armeria plantaginea (Jersey and Normandy), Cicendia pusilla (Guernsey and Normandy), Echium plantagineum (Jersey), Centaurea aspera (Jersey). IV. ReLation oF THE CHANNEL ISLANDS FLORA TO THAT OF THE NEIGHBOURING Parts oF FRANCE. All the Channel Islands plants occur in either Normandy or Brittany with the exception of Hypochris maculata (Jersey), the newly discovered Milium scabrum (Guernsey), Echium plan- tagineum (Jersey), and perhaps Centaurea aspera, which appears to be possibly native in Jersey, but is introduced in both Nor- mandy and Brittany. With these three exceptions the whole Channel Islands Flora reappears in Brittany, but there are several plants, all belonging to the $. European group, which are not found in Normandy. They are Gymnogramme leptophylla, Adiantum Capillus-Veneris, Ophioglossum lusitanicum, Isoétes Hystrix, Dianthus gallicus, Ononis reclinata, Ornithopus ebrac- teatus, and Linaria Pelisseriana. This fact seems to indicate that the southern species have reached the Channel Islands by some land connection existing ‘in former times with the coast of Brittany. VY. NatuRaALIsED ALIENS AND CASUALS. Thanks to the mildness of the winters and the large number of hours of sunshine, there are many interesting Naturalised Aliens in the Channel Islands, some of which could not possibly be dis- tinguished from the native flora apart from a knowledge of their origin. I will mention some of the more remarkable. CHANNEL ISLANDS FLORA. 193 Allium triquetrum L. (S.W. Europe) is abundant in the hedges in Guernsey, and is spreading in Jersey. Silene quinquevulnera L. (a southern variety of S. gallica) is locally plentiful in Jersey and Guernsey. Scabiosa maritima L. (S. Europe) is well established in Jersey. Centaurea paniculata L. (S. Europe) covers a small area in St. Ouen’s Bay, Jersey, to the exclusion of everything else. A very interesting Guernsey alien is Gunnera scabra Ruiz. & Pav., a gigantic Chilian plant. Erigeron mucronatum DC. (Mexico) is well established on old walls in Guernsey. Centranthus ruber DC. grows in enormous masses on the slopes of Fort Regent in Jersey, and is common elsewhere both in Jersey and Guernsey. Gnaphalium undulatum L. (8. Africa) is common in dry, rocky places in the south-west of Jersey. Cnothera odorata Jacq. (Patagonia) is abundant in sandy places in some parts of Jersey and Guernsey. Portulaca oleracea L. (Europe) is a common garden weed in St. Helier'’s. The number of Casuals is also very large. Much seed is imported every year from the Continent into Jersey, and the great, bare, semi-cultivated stretch of sand in St. Ouen’s Bay, where the crops are not thick enough to stifle the weeds, often provides a congenial home for introduced species for a year or two. I have included in the Flora those plants of the occurrence of which I had tolerably conclusive evidence, but there must have been many more, and every year one or two fresh species are discovered. VI. ExtInctions. The progress of cultivation has had its inevitable effect upon the flora of these small Islands. In Jersey in particular, consider- able salt marshes have been drained and cultivated. In a meadow near Samarés, in which a trench had been opened for the purpose of laying a drain, and which looked on the surface like an ordinary, natural field, I came upon the following interesting geological section. (a) Anexcellentthick turf. (6) A few inches of very good soil. (c) About six inches of broken crockery and glass. It was 0 194 FLORA OF JERSEY. all ‘made’ land. Again, elaborate and costly sea-walls are being built all round the low-lying parts of the coast, and the botanical features of the foreshore entirely obliterated. In the case of Alderney and Sark it seems impossible to tell what plants have become extinct, as no early records exist which can be relied on. The “ Flora Sarnica”’ records, when unconfirmed, are absolutely unreliable. In Jersey and Guernsey the following once native plants have almost certainly disappeared :— (1) Jersey.—Pilularia globulifera, Triglochin maritimum, Cata- brosa aquatica, Milium effusum, Polygonum minus, Rumex maritimus, Atriplex portulacoides, Sagina nodosa, Ranunculus ophioglossifolius, Nasturtium palustre, Euphorbia Peplis, Inud- wigia apetata, Cynoglossum officinale, Mentha Pulegium, Bidens cernua, B. tripartita, Diotis candidissima. (2) Guernsey.—Botrychium Lunaria, Typha latifolia, Sueda fruticosa, Hippuris vulgaris, Euphorbia Peplis, Althea officinalis, Frankenia levis, Statice Limonium, Utricularia minor, Veronica scutellata, Pulicaria vulgaris, Bidens tripartita. VII. ATTENTION MAY PERHAPS BE DRAWN TO THE FOLLOWING Points oF INTEREST. (a) The preponderance of small Leguminose belonging to the genera Trifolium, Lotus, Vicia, Medicago, Ornithopus and Trigo- nella is a very marked feature. (b) The genera containing the greatest number of species are Carex (25), Juncus (11), Rumex (9), Polygonum (9), Ranunculus (15), Trifolium (15), Veronica (11). (c) The wealth of colour of the Jersey plants in particular is very striking. Besides the ordinary species of Gorse, Broom, Heather, and Poppy, which make a great show anywhere in W. Europe, there are acres of Armeria plantaginea and huge masses of Echium plantagineum and Centranthus ruber, and on the sandy ground in the west of the Island Erucastrum incanum, Brassica Cheiranthus, and Rhaphanus maritimus are most conspicuous. The colours of the various species of Orchis which adorn the damp meadows are wonderfully rich, and there is abundance of the beautiful Matthiola sinuata on the coast of St. Ouen’s Bay.
