I904. Praegkr.— r/^^ Flora of A chill Island. 285 



^Mlmulus guttatus, DC— Stream near north end of Keel I^ough, a 



form with brown-spotted corolla. 

 Euphrasia borealis, Towns.— By south side of Keel I,ou^h. 

 E, brevipila, Burn, et Grem.— Very abundant. Specimens from 

 Achill Head, Dugort, Valley Strand, Lough Nambrack, and 

 Sraheens village, were confirmed by Mr. Townsend.. E). S. Marshall 

 also gathered it at the east end of the island {loc, cit.). 

 E. curta, Fr., var. glabrcscens, Wettst.— By Keel Lough and 



Sruhillbeg Lough. Also (doubtfully) from Achill Head. 

 E. Foulaensis, Towns. ?— A small, unbranched Eyebright, gathered 

 on the summit of Croaghaun (2,192 feet)," is doubtfully referred by 

 Mr. Townsend to this northern form, characteristic of Shetland and 

 the Fteroes, and unrecorded from Ireland. I hope to collect the 

 plant again next year, and decide the question of its identity. 

 E. g:racllls, Fr.— By Keel Lough. 



E. scotica, Wettst. — In two places near Lough Nakeeroge West, at 

 Lough Acorrymore, and in tw^o spots on Slievemore. Doubtfully 

 also from Dugort. 

 Melampyrum pratense, L.— Rather rare. The var. montanum 

 Johnst., on Slievemore and Croaghaun ; var. hians is recorded 

 from Sraheens Lough by Marshall (Joe. cit.). 

 Utrlcularia Intermeclla, Hayne.— Sraheens Lough, and north end 



of Keel Lough. 

 Lamlum hybrldum, Vill.— Dooagh and Bull's Mouth, with Z. in- 



tennedmm, which is frequent in the eastern half of the island. 

 Beta marltima, L. — Sparingly about Keel, on shingle and on sand. 

 Oxyria dig'yna, Hill. — Plentiful on the highest part of the Slievemore 



rock-scarp. 

 Polygonum Rail, Bab. — Frequent at the west end of Trawmore. 

 Salix herbacea, L — Along the Croaghaun ridge down to about 1,200 



feet. Sparingly on the summit of Meenawn (1,530 feet). 

 Junlperus nana, Willd. — Chiefly about Croaghaun, as above and 

 below L. Acorrymore, and abundant at Bunnafreva Lough West, 

 Summit of Meenawn, and near Black Lough. Sea-stack near 

 Dooega, twenty feet above sea-level, growing amid maritime plants. 

 Usually absolutely prostrate, forming patches even lower than the 

 shorn heath among which it grows, 

 Llstera cordata, R. Br. — Slievemore and Croaghaun. 

 Iris Pscud-acorus, L. — Covering low sand-dunes near Keel— an un- 

 usual habitat. 

 Juncus cffusus, L., var. — Near Sraheens village occurred a form 

 with widely-spreading stems, many of them spirally curved, with 

 several convolutions. I have gathered the same form on Inish- 

 murray, Co. Sligo. Mr. Beeby informs me that in Orkney these 

 spiral forms are frequent. 

 Potamogcton nitcns, Weber. —Recorded from the stream flowing 

 out of L. Keel by A. G. More {loc. cii.). Seen plentifully here, and also 

 in several parts of Keel Lough itself, and in Sruhillbeg Lough, 

 everywhere accompanied by P.filiformis,
