504 JUNCACEAE 



Mr. Briggs, in the Flora of Plymouth, points out that a growing plant of 

 J. Forsteri can be distinguished at a glance, especially in fruit, as all the 

 capsules on a panicle drop in one direction, whereas those of J. pilosuvt 

 spread in all directions.

I have found the var. Borreri (Bromf. Fl. Vect. 517 as a species'. In 

 Quarry Wood.

 It has been reported from Ireland, from which J. Forsteri is absent or not 

 recorded. 



J. pilosum is found in all the bordering counties.
