SOME NEW COUNTY AND VICE-COUNTY RECORDS 



FOR IRISH PLANTS. 



BY R. A. PHILLIPS, M.R.I. A. 



Frequent rambles in various parts of the country during 

 the years that have passed since the pubhcation of Dr. 

 Praeger's " Irish Topographical Botany " (1901) and his 

 supplement to same (1906) have given me opportunities 

 for observing and collecting plants in most of the counties 

 of the southern half of Ireland. 



Among the plants collected during that time there are 

 many specimens of critical genera not yet worked out or 

 submitted to authorities for segregation, as well as of others 

 which extend the known range of rare species in counties 

 for which they have already been recorded. These I purpose 

 to treat of, when time permits, in a future paper. 



The following notes refer only to species which are 

 additions to the county-division lists given in the above- 

 mentioned works, which, so far as I can discover, have not 

 already been recorded elsewhere.
