borealis and Thlaspi arvense. Lepidium D^aba and Laduca 

 vifosa, both of which are recorded from here by Mr. Praeger, 

 are still to be found. Among those from Carey's Road quarry 

 are Matricaria discoidea^ which has now got south of the 

 Shannon, and some very fine plants of Lepidium perjoliatum, 

 and Coro7iilla securidaca. This last plant has also lately been 

 sent to me by Miss O'Brien from Cahirmoyle, where it has 

 appeared on the hen-run. 



I have to thank Mr. Colgan for kindly lookmg through 

 these casuals and naming those I found too puzzling ; also 

 those botanists who helped me with the critical species — 

 Mr. S. A. Stewart, Mr. Praeger, Rev. W. Moyle Rogers, Rev. 

 E. F. Linton, Rev. E. S. Marshall, and especially Mr. Arthur 

 Bennett, to whom I sent the bulk of our three weeks 

 collecting.
