July 14- 1861. Torquay— This District swarms abounds with Galium verum. Though sometimes fly flies only be seen on it— very little frequented; I suspect moths — But in true G. mollugo, young in damp wood I saw many Syrphus Syrphus & other Flies.

Whereas on the allied Galium ar erectum near crest (G. var. according to Bentham & species according to Babington) I have seen extremely few flies. These 2 Galium very close species. — (Mistake)

I think certainly G. verum very little haunted yet ants suck flowers.

(I also watched the very minute flower of common G. asperula & saw no flies).

17. Cloudy & windy day many flies on G. mollugo & some on G. erectum.

I do not believe Enchanter's Night-shade or Circæa,

though belonging to Onagrareæ (with Oenothera & Epilobium) is a Dichogam— any how no clear evidence of this; for stigma opens whilst pollen is shedding.
