52 ' The Irish Natiualist. March, 



Rubus Coleinanni, Elox. -I. 2. Near Glena bay, I^ovver I^ake, 



Killarney. 

 R. adenanthus, Boul. & Gill.— I. 1.2. In the stony bed of the River 



Sheen, near Dromanassig bridge, and in an open wood near Kenmare. 



About Woodlawn near Killarney. These records now confirm the 



provisional naming of this plant by the Rev. W. Moyle Rogers in 



1903; vide Irish Nat., 1904, p 129. 

 R. rudis, Wh. & N.— I. 2. Near Glena bay, Lower Lake, Killarney. 



"A small singular variety" — W.M.R. 

 R. dasyphyllus, Rogers— i. Wood near the N.E. corner of Caragh 



Lake. 

 R. Balfourianus, Blox. - Thicket on limestone near the Lake Hotel, 



Killarney. This is the first specimen from Kerry seen by Mr. Moyle 



Rogers, but it has been already recorded from Killarney by Prof. 



Babington in Cyb. Hib., 1866. 

 R. saxatilis, Linn. — i. Very sparingly on one of the Greenane 



Islands, Kenmare ba}-, 1904. The locality is a bare limestone island 



very similar in appearance to portions of Muckross demesne and Ross 



Island, where this plant grows in abundance. In the Kenmare 



station the island has been nearly stripped of its shrubby vegetation, 



and the plant appears to be d3ing out and very nearly extinct. 

 *Scduin album, Linn. — 2. On walls about Fenit, and on banks and 



walls by the sea about the Spa, Tralee bay, 1905. This plant appears 



to be spreading in the county. 

 *Caruin Carul, Linn.— Sparingly on a bridge near the head of 



Kenmare estuary, 1907. This is a very rare casual in Kerry. 

 *CaIiutn lYIoIIugro, Linn.— 2. In some abundance on the lawn and in 



the shrubberies at Carriglea House near Killarney, 1904. This is the 



only station in Kerrj- known to me where the plant occurs at present ; 



it seems to have disappeared from the Killarney Workhouse grounds. 

 Valeriana IVIikanii, Syme.— 2. Rather sparingly near Inch bridge, 



north of Listowel ; vide antca. 

 Dipsacus sylvcstris, Linn. — vSpariugly in a ditch between Milltown 



and Castlemaine, 1905 ; Capt. Creagh Howard ; but not seen there n 



1906 or 1907. 

 "Artemisia Absinthium, Linn.— 2. Rather sparingly by roadside 



banks, &.C., near the Bally roe mills between Causeway and Bally- 



heigue, 1907. This plant is very rare indeed in Kerry, and has much 



diminished in its Stradbally locality near Castlegregory, where it was 



quite plentiful in 1900. 

 fCarduus pynocephaius, Jacq. — Sparingly on a roadside bank 



between INIilltown and Gallerus, west of Dingle. This is a very rare 



Kerry thistle. 

 *Cichorium Intybus, Linn- i. Several plants in a field near houses 



at Ballinasteenig, east of Dingle, 1905 This is the only occasion on 



which I have seen this plant in the county, where it appears to be 



little better than a casual.
