THE MOSS FLORA OF SUFFOLK. 233 



Viburnum occurs. The floor of it is literally paved with Saxifraga 

 hirsuta and S. umhrosa. Irish spurge and the two filmy ferns are 

 also common. This wood is called Uragh Wood. In it I found 

 also Carex pallesccns and Neottia Nidus-avis. The latter is very 

 rare in Ireland, and has not been found in the South of Ireland 

 below Wicklow previously. Near Glengariff Scrophularia aquatica, 

 Anthcmis nobilis, Carex lirnosa, Uadiola Milletjrana, and Scutellaria 

 galericulata were found on the way to Berehaveu. The Scutellaria, 

 with the smaller one, S. minor, grows on the limestone shingle 

 close by the edge of the sea in Bearhaven Bay, near Adrigoole, an 

 unusual situation. On bare rocky mountains above Glen Lough, 

 north-east from Adrigoole, I gathered Sai/ina snbulata and Juniperus 

 nana, both very rare in Cork. In one at least of the many lakes 

 here Eriocaulon septangulare is abundant, an important addition to 

 Mr. Alhn's Flora. 



In the foregoing herborization the following species are addi- 

 tions to the Flora of District 3 of ' Cybele Hibernica ' and its 

 Supplement : — 



Nasturtium sylvestre. Mercurialis perennis. 



Armoracia amphibia. Piuniex Hydrolapathum. 



(Enanthe fistulosa. Sparganium minimum. 



QL. Lachenalii. Carex pendula. 



(E. Phellandrium. C. riparia. 



Slum angustifolium. Luzula pilosa. 



*Matricaria Chamomilla. Hordeum pratcnse. 



Xeottia Nid^ts-avis is an addition to the Flora of District 1, its 

 locality being just inside the Kerry boundary, and Eriocatdon sept- 

 angulare is an addition to the Flora of Cork ; while new localities 

 are given for several rare species, notably Allium. Scorodoprasum. 

 and Rhynchvspora fusca. 



THE MOSS FLOEA OF SUFFOLK. 

 By the Eev. E. N. Bloomfield, M.A. 



On looking at the last edition of the ' London Catalogue of 

 British Mosses and Hepatics,' it will be observed that the compilers 

 knew little for certain of the Moss Flora of the Ouse Province, 

 which comprises the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridge, (fee. 



I think it may not be amiss, therefore, to brmg together all the 

 information I can procure as to the Flora of one of these counties, 

 which may be taken as a fair specimen of the productions of the 

 > 'ovince. 



I am fortunate in possessing very trustworthy materials for this 

 enumeration in the case of the county of Suffolk. I have a good 

 number of specimens from the late Mr. E. Skepper, of Bury 

 St. Edmunds, Co-editor of the ' Flora of Suffolk.' These are sup- 

 plemented by specimens gathered by the late Mr. F. K. Engle,
