222 The Irish Naturalist. July, 



Another locality for Weisia rostellata. 



Some years ago I had the satisfaction of reporting this pretty little 

 moss from Knockmore, near Iyisburn, Co. Antrim, that being at the time 

 the only Irish station. In September last it was found again on bare 

 ground in an orchard at Ballinderry, in the same county.

Altitude attained by Nettle and Dock. 



The Common Nettle (JJrtica dioua,lj.) and Broad-leaved Dock (Rumex 

 oblusifolius, I/.) were recently found at the side of the road running over 

 the shoulder of Seahan Mountain, Co. Dublin, at an altitude of almost 

 i, 600 feet. The greatest heights previously known, as given in " Cybele 

 Hibernica," were 1,500 feet for Nettle and 1,350 feet for Dock.

Lepidium Draba again in County Down. 



At the end of May last, when it was then in flower, an extensive patch 

 of this Crucifer was noticed on waste ground by the River Bann at Lena- 

 derg. It had not been seen there before, so that one cannot well say 

 whether it is established, as Mr. Carrothers informs me it is at Comber, 

 in the same county, where he has observed it in quantity, in seven con- 

 secutive years.

Botanical Exchange Club Report. 



The Report for 1906, lately issued, contains notes on several Irish 

 plants, collected chiefly by Mr. G. C. Druce last autumn.
