148 The lush Naturalist. 



One or two of the Rubi may be new records — R. Sclmeri, at 

 least, has only within the last few months been described as a 

 British plant by the Rev. W. M. Rogers. 



I am indebted to the Rev. W. M. Rogers for looking over 

 my collection of Brambles and Roses ; to Mr. Hanbury for 

 putting me right as regards the Hicracia, and to the Rev. H. S. 

 Marshall for naming some varietal forms of other plants. 



UST OF RARER PLANTS. 



Fumaria pallidiflora, Jord. — The Rev. S. A. Breuan drew my 

 attention to this growing in a hedgerow at Knocknacarry. 



Nasturtium palustre, DC. — Glendnn. 



Arab is sagittata, DC. — Benevenagh, Co. Deny. I have no note 

 of this from the Antrim cliffs. This plant appears to be rare in N.E. 

 Ireland. It is very common on limestone cliffs and walls in this part of 

 the West of England. 



Draba incana, L. — Sparingly on the higher part of the cliffs at 

 Benevenagh. 



Gochlearia Armoracia, L. — Near Cushendnn — garden escape. 



Viola palustris, L. — Boggy ground, Glenariffe; Glendun ; Fair- 

 head, and near Ballycastle. 



V. canina, L. — Cushendun, near the shore. 



Polygala vulgaris I,- 1 Common> 

 P. serpyllacea, Weihe.— S 



Silene acaulis, L. — Fairly plentiful on Benevenagh. 



Arenaria vcrna, L. — Plentiful on the cliffs on the south side of 

 Glenariffe, and on Benevenagh. 



Geranium lucidum, L. — Glenariffe. 



IYIelilotus altissima, Thuill. — Glenariffe. 



Trlfolium medium, L. — Rocks near Ballintoy. 



T. procumbens, L,. — Glenariffe. 



Lotus pilosus, Beeke.— Glenariffe. 



Vicla syivatica, L. — Glenariffe. 



Prunus Padus, L-— One or two small trees seen in Glenshesk near 

 the river. 



Rubus rhamnifolius, W. & N.— Glenariffe and Glendun. 



R. pulcherrimus, Neum.— Cave Hill; Glenariffe; Glendun ; between 

 Cushendall and Knocknacarry, &c. Of a specimen from Cave Hill, Mr. 

 Rogers writes "with unusually broad panicle," and of specimens from 

 near Larne " I believe pulcherrimus, but in a form I do not remember to 

 have seen before." 



R. vllllcaulis, Kcehl.— Glenariffe and Glendun. 

 var. Selmcri, Liudeb. — Glendun. Mr. Rogers writes "exactly 

 like a form of villicaulis, common in the south of England, which is var. 

 Selmtri, Lindeb." 



R. Lindleianus, Lees.- Glenariffe and Glendun. A very striking- 

 looking form as regards foliage, grows in Glenariffe, which Mr. Rogers 

 considers cannot be kept separate from Lindleianus. It has unusually 

 broad terminal leaflets, and very large panicles,
