To compare the Down and .Antrim flora with that of the 

 adjacent counties. Adjoining Antrim on the west is London- 

 derry. Down, Antrim, and Londonderry together compose 

 District XII of Cybele Hibernica. The eastern half of Derry 

 is formed of a continuation of the Antrim basaltic plateau, 

 and yields a closely similar vegetation, the Benevenagh cliffs 

 possessing a remarkable alpine flora, of which several mem- 

 bers are unknown in Antrim. The western half consists 

 largely of metamorphic rocks, rising in the Sperrin moun- 

 tains to 2,240 feet, and yielding a couple of alpine plants 

 unknown in our district. The number of Derry plants which 

 do not occur in Down or Antrim is but 12, as follows : 

 Draba incana \ 



Silene acaulis - Benevenagh. 



Saxifraga oppositifolia )
