FURTHER 



NOTES ON THE FLORA OF DENBIGHSHIRE. 



By ARTHUR A. DALLMAN, F.C.S. 



Since the publication of a preliminary list of Denbighshire 

 plants with the Journal of Botany for 1911, so much new material 

 has come to hand that it seems desirable to publish a supple- 

 mentary paper, as this tentative list has served a very useful 

 purpose. I regret to note the loss of three valued contributors 

 during the past year, and the previous and present paper show 

 that much is owing to the generous co-operation of the late Miss 

 Hilda M. Williams, of Aston, Mr. W. Hodge (Northwich), and 

 Mr. T. Ruddy, of Llangollen. The present contribution, like the 

 former, is essentially systematic, and is mainly concerned with 

 the less common Phanerogamia and Pteridophyta. Species un- 

 recorded for v.-c. 50 in Topographical Botany or in Mr. Bennett's 

 Supplement (Journ. Bot. Suppl. 1905) are asterisked. Book 

 records and commoner species are purposely excluded. A mark 

 of exclamation is prefixed to records where I have seen a specimen 

 of the plant or independently confirmed the same ; in many cases 

 so indicated I have been present with the finder and seen the 

 plant in situ. 



A number of herbarium records are from three collections 

 which had not been previously examined. The late Miss E. M. 

 Wood, of Birkenhead, formed a collection of two hundred Phanero- 

 gamia and Cryptogamia illustrative of the flora of Llansannan, 

 which was exhibited and awarded a prize at the Welsh National 

 Eisteddfod held at Rhyl in 1901. The collection (Hb. Wood) is 

 contained in three bound volumes, and is now in the possession 

 of Mr. John Morris, of Liverpool and Llansannan, who has kindly 

 placed it at my disposal. The late Mr. Ruddy collected a con- 

 siderable number of British plants, which are contained in a large 

 volume (Hb. Buddy), now in the possession of his daughter, Miss 

 C. E. Ruddy, of Rhyl, who has kindly given me facilities for 

 examining it. This supplies many North Wales and Denbighshire 

 records, most of the latter being in the Llangollen district. 



The herbarium of Mr. W. Whitwell {Hb. Whittvell) includes 

 many North Wales plants and supplies numerous Denbighshire 

 records. I have to thank Mr. Whitwell for a very complete list 

 of these plants, the loan of herbarium sheets, and considerable
