few in a work crammed with I^atin and Greek words, and 

 names of places and of people. We only mention one or two, 

 as in the last instance, which as they stand might possiblj^ lead 

 to confusion in the future. Ballyalooley (p. 233) should read 

 Ballyalloly. Derryquinney (p. 274) should read Derrywinn3^ 

 Thoulagee (p. 460) should be Thonlagee. Shanlieve (p. 443) 

 should be Shanslieve — an important correction, since there is a 

 Shanlieve towards the western end of the Mourne Mountains. 



To return to a more congenial subject, it is with pleasure 

 that we draw attention to the excellent manner in which the 

 University Press have executed their portion of the work. 

 No better printed book has issued from an Irish workshop, 

 nor is a more diiSicult piece of type-setting often handed over 

 to the tender mercies of the compositor. The reputation of 

 the University Press for the turning out of high-class work 

 might safely rest on this book alone. 



Our warmest thanks are due to Mr. Colgan and Dr. Scully 

 for the promptitude, care, and judgment with which they have 

 carried out a laborious and difficult piece of work, and we 

 offer them our hearty congratulations on its successful con- 

 clusion. Thanks to them and to Miss More, and by no means 

 least to the University Press, we have now a guide to the 

 flora of our native land of which any country might feel 

 proud. And perhaps the most to be congratulated is the 

 Irish botanist, who has the privilege of possessing and of 

 using a work so admirably produced.
