The Flora of County Armagh. it^^ 



Bennett writes of my specimen ".7. ncinorosniii Bab. non Lej ; the 

 plant Dabington names as ncniorosuin (= your plant!) is not the A. 

 intermedium Lange, with which Lange says A. nemorosum, Lej. is 

 synonymous." 



Arctium majus, Sclik. N. 



Roadside two miles east of lyoughall, R. LI. P. {Jide A. Bennett). 

 [Ccntaurca scabiosa, Linn. 



In County of Armagh, Flor. Ulsf. Supp. A mistake.] 



Carduus crispus, var. acanthoides, inn. N. 



Common in the limestone district, and occasionally on the New 

 Red Sandstone ; absent from the rest of the county, R. LI. P. 



C. pratcnsis, Huds. S. 



Sparingly on the N.W. slope of Camlough mountain, R. LI. P. 

 *SiIy)fc)um marianum, Gaert. 



In small enclosures, waste ground, etc., always near buildings. 

 More N. H. R. Maghery, W. F. J. ! Seagoe, H. W. L. spec. ! 



Lcontodon hirtus, Linn. N. 



Frequent in the northern portion of the county, on boggy and 

 wet gravelly ground; noted from Loughadian near Armagh, 

 lakeside at Loughgall, shore of Derrjdileagh Lake, bog two miles 

 south of Portadown, gravel pit two and a-half miles N.E. of 

 Armagh, and abundant on a stony hill near Retreat between 

 Armagh and Richhill, R. LI. P. 



tCrepis biennis, Linn. N. 



Abundant in a field at Armagh workhouse, about 1886, A. G. 

 More in litt. I found it growing plentifully on the lawn of the 

 Shiels Memorial Buildings, adjoining the workhouse, which is no 

 doubt Mr. More's station ; it does not appear to have spread. In- 

 troduced with seed } 



C. paludosa, Moench. — M. S. 



Observed at one or two spots in the centre and south of the 

 county, but rare, R. LI. P. 



*C. nicaeensis, Balb. N. 



Sparingly on railroad track south of Drummanmore Lake, near 

 Armagh, R. LI. P. The specimens w^ere poor and apparently not 

 characteristic. Mr. Hanbury w^rites of my plant "I have little 

 doubt but that it is C. niccrensis, Balb. ; it agrees well with my 

 specimens." Mr. Bennett says: "Your plant differs from t3'pical 

 niiceejtsis by the want of pubescence on the stems, etc., w^hich is 

 sometimes very marked, but I suppose it must go to it." This is a 

 S. European species, and was probably introduced with grass seed; 

 it has not been previously detected in Ireland, so far as I am aware. 

 Lobelia dortmanna, Linn. N. — S. 



Junction of Lagan canal and Lough Neagh (Hyndman) Flor. Ulst. ; 

 this is on the borders of Armagh and Down. In Lough Neagh at 

 west side Raughlan Point ! and shores of Derrylileagh Lake, 

 H. W. L. In Lough Neagh north of Bird Island, and abundant at 

 the east end of Lough Ross, near Crossmaglen, R. LI. P. 



Jasione montana, Linn. S. 



Abundant in the southern hill district; not seen elsewhere, 

 R. LI. P. 

 Campanula rotundifolia, Linn. — M. vS. 



Centre and south of the count}'; not common, R. LI. P. 



Andromeda polifolia, Linn. N. 



Bogs in Armagh (G. R.), Flor. Ulst. Tartaraghan (G. R.), Cyb. Hib. 

 "Bog near Tartaraghan, Rev. G. Robinson, spec!" More A^ H. R. 

 Must be very rare ; I passed over miles of likely ground without 

 seeiusr it.
