LABI AT JE. Ill 



Derry — Abundant about Goleraine, otherwise rare ; D.M. Moneymore ; 

 Flor. Ulst. Goleraine; R.Ll.P. 



GA^SOPSZS Litm. Hempnettle. 



1. G. tetrabit Linn. 



Cultivated fields, especially in light sandy soil— common. Fl. July — 

 Sept. 



2. G. speclosa Miller. (G. versicolor Curt.) Bee Nettle. 

 Damp gravelly ground— rare. Fl. July and Aug. 



Antrim — In a field at Malone, and in corn west of Broughshane, also on 



the roadside one mile north of Glenarm ; Templeton, 1797. 



Derry — Banks of the Faughan below Gumber ; Templeton. Frequent 



about Dungiven, and Kilrea ; D.M. Very sparingly on 



gravel behind the railway station at Dungiven ; S.A.S., 18S5. 



A coarse form of the preceding, with larger cream coloured flowers, is 



frequently named G. versicolor. Such was the case with the Go. Down 



stations of Flora Belfastiensis, and probably such occurred as respects Flora 



of Ulster. It has been considered necessary to reject numerous notes of 



localities for this species, which were not accompanied by satisfactory 



specimens. The old notes, given above, are probably correct, yet some 



may be erroneous. 



STACB7S Linn, "Woundwort. 



1. S. betonlca [Linn.) Benth. Betony. 



"Woods, and shady places— very rare. Fl. July and Aug. {Cyb. Rib.). 

 Antrim— In the woods of Shane's Gastle ; TTade Bar, 

 Derry — Sparingly by the Bann both above and below the bridge at Kilrea ; 

 D.M. 



The authority for Shane's Gastle is not Templeton, but "Wade. Not 

 found there by any subsequent botanist, and may have been an error. 

 Not to be found at Parkmount, and that record may be set aside. The 

 bugle — locally misnamed betony, was no doubt, the plant noted in Flora 

 of Ulster.
