FURTHER NOTES ON THE KERRY FLORA. Q^ 



"on the sand-hills, Bay of Gastlemain," by Mackay in 1804, and 

 this station is further supported by, the plant appearing in a 

 collection bought by Mr. R. M. Barrington from a coastguard of the 

 place, labelled " Sand-hills, Killorglin Bay, 1845," Journ. Bot. 

 1877, p. 179. Mr. Hart searched the Inch locality, which lies on 

 the north side of the bay> in 1883 fruitlessly, and the same result 

 attended my searches on the sand-hills along the south side, but it 

 is possible the habitat may have been destroyed by the rapid 

 changes tliese sand-hills are subject to ; I noticed that a signal- 

 tower, marked on my Ordnance-sheet as well on the land, was now 

 more than fifty yards out in the sea, a change that must have taken 

 place within about sixty years. 



In the following list I have not repeated the localities, save in a 

 few instances, nor the plants, unless from new localities, recorded 

 in my Notes in Journ. Bot. for March, 1887. Plants marked I. are 

 additions to District I. of the ' Cybele Hibernica ' and its Supplement.
