Plants of Glyn Neath and its Vicinity, 

 (Not previously mentioned in this paper.f) 

 Trolliua Europceus. — In Gorsellyn Bog, on the Banwen Mountain. 

 Drosera rotundifolia. — In the same bog. Perhaps other Droserce may be 



found here. 

 Hypericum androscemum. — On the woody descent to Sgwd-yr-Hen-Bhyd 



Waterfall. 

 Stellaria uliginosa. — Watery spots about Pont Nedd Vechan. 

 Saxifraga tr {dactylites. — I gathered what appears to be a variety of this, with 



entire root-leaves, on the rocks at Cil Hepste. 

 *Rubus affinis. — In great luxuriance between the great Mellte waterfall and 



the old road to Brecon over the mountains. Also on boggy spots on 



the Banwen. 

 R. idceus. — Very plentiful in bushy spots about the Hepste and Pyrddin 



rivers. 

 *Comarum palustre. — Gorsellyn. 

 Geum rivale. — Plentiful within the dripping of Cil Hepste fall, and adorning 



the spot with its gracefully drooping dark ruby flowers. 

 *Rosa scabriitscula. — Near Pont Nedd Vechan, and on the bank of the 



Mellte near its upper water-fall. 

 *Rosa villosa. — Plentiful throughout Glyn Neath. I observed an apparent 



variety with hooked prickles between Pont Nedd Vechan and Merthyr, 



which may perhaps be R. sylvestris of Lindley. 

 AlchemiUa vulgaris. — Growing excessively large at the Porth-yr-ogof. 

 Sanguisorba officinalis. — Abundant in fields below the mountain Craig-y-Llyn 



Vawr. 

 Gnaphalium dioicum. — Very abundant on a heath above the Logan stone, 



near Tewd-y-gladis cascade. 

 * Cnicus pratensis. — Completely covering some wet meadows at the base of 



Craig-y-Lllyn Vawr, and equally abundant above Ginon Gam fall on 



the Pyrddin. Also on the Banwen, Breconshire. 

 *Prenanthes muralis. — On the side of Craig y Dinas. 

 *Hieracium Lawsoni. — In a rocky steep part of the road to Merthyr, before 



the woods give place to the open moor. 

 Hieracium murarum. — On the Rock and other craggy places. 

 Lobelia Dortmanna. — In Llyn Vawr, a lake at the northern foot of the
