XXVI.—CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FLORA OF 
MACEDONIA: III.* 
W. B. Turritt. 
The following additional contribution to our knowledge of the 
Macedonian Hora is based chiefly on a collection of over 300 speci- 
mens made by Mr. L. V. Turner in 1917 and 1918. Nearly 120 
species and varieties are here recorded for the first time in this 
series, and these appear in clarendon type in the systematic lst 
art of Macedonia in the neighbourhood of the Rendina Gulf. 
Very little, if any, botanical collecting had previously been done 
in this area and consequently considerable additions have been 
made to the known distribution of Macedonian plants. 
The opportunity has been taken of recording some plants which 
for one reason or another were not included in the first and 
second contributions, and also of correcting a few errors which 
were made in the first paper. 
Our greatest need at present, so far as the the Macedonian 
flora is concerned, are collections from the higher mountains, 
especially from those, such as the Belashika Planina, which pro- 
bably have an Alpine flora in their highest parts. Help and 
advice will be most gladly given at Kew to anyone who 1s likely 
to have the opportunity of visiting these unexplored collecting 
g ds.
