 only a starved state of the plant. Ardmore, H. W. L. spec. ! In

Tartaraghan (G. R.), Herb. N. H. P. S.! On visiting the spot 

 described by Mr. Robinson in answer to inquiries — the streamlet 

 below the glebe house — I found about half-a-dozen fine plants, with 

 abundant fruit stems three to four feet high; Mr. Robinson has also 

 given me "near Lurgan" as a station; R. LI. P. 

 C. rhynchophysa, C. A. Meyer. ~ M. — 



Sparingly in a deep drain on the margin of Mullaghmore lough 

 near Markethill, R. LI. P. This fine sedge, which resembles 



C. rostrata [ampullae ea) in general habit, is an addition to the British 

 Flora. For full details of its synonomy, bibliography, and 

 European distribution, the reader is referred to Journal of Botany 

 for February, 1893. Suffice here to say that it is a native of 

 northern Europe, inhabiting Scandinavia, Russia, etc. I suc- 

 ceeded in obtaining one specimen only, which, after a careful 

 examination by Mr. Arthur Bennett, F.I/.S., and comparison with 

 continental examples in his own and the Kew herbarium, is re- 

 ferred unhesitatingly to C. rhynchophysa, C. A. Meyer. By the 

 kindness of the editor and publishers of the Journal of Botany I 

 am enabled to reproduce the figure of the Armagh plant which 

 appeared in the Journal (Plate 5). 



Since the above went to press I have visited the locality (June 9th) 

 and obtained several specimens, but the plant appears to be very 

 rare in its only station. 

 C. paludosa. Good. N.

 luxuriant in the lake of Tynan Abbey demesne, B. N. F. C, 1873!;

 specimen from this station is in Herb, N. H. P. vS. In a marsh 

 a mile N. E. of Loughall, R. LI. P.
