5. Cliffs of Moher:— 

 Viola lutea (on the turf). 

 Sedum Rhodiola. 



Silene maritima (of stouter habit than usual, and with leaves scabrous 

 at their edges, the panicle bearing three flowers). 



6. Re-entering the Burrin district : — 

 Dryas, Sesleria, Geranium sanguineum, &c. 



7. At Black Head, the south-west extremity of Galway Bay : — 

 AUine verna. 



Crifhmum maritimum. 



Asplenium marinum* 



Cystopteris fragilis. 



Saxifraga hirta. My specimens agree exactly with others from Kerry, 

 except that the sepals are perhaps a little more pointed in the Black 

 Head plant. It differs remarkably from. S. hypnoides in its palmate 

 stem leaves, and the close, short rosettes of the barren shoots. 



Statice occidentalis. My friend Mr. Babington considers the plant 

 found at Black Head to belong to this species, rather than to S. 

 Dodartii, and believes that al 1 the other Irish localities recorded for 

 S. Dodartii do really only produce S. occidentalis ; they are — Bally- 

 cotton, Cork ; Tramore, Waterford ; Howth, Dublin. S. Dodartii 

 must, therefore, be expunged from the Irish Flora. 



8. Between Ballyvaughan and Kinvarra, along the upper road : — 

 Marrubium vulgar e. 



NepeUi catarM, 



Or.obanche rubra. 



Ahliemilla vulgaris. 



Gentiana venut. 



Cystopteris fragilis (frequent). 



Cerastium arvense (a vac. with its leaves almost glabrous, but stem 

 slightly pilose, occurred near the shore, towards New Quay. Very 

 near to, if not identical with, the var. " strictum" of Arran). 



The present seems a fit occasion to notice one or two corrections re- 

 quired in a paper upon the Flora of Castle Taylor, in " East Galway," 

 which was read before the Botanical Society of Edinburgh, in April, 

 1855 (Proceedings of Bot. Soc, p. 26).
