RUMEX (Linn.) 



1. E. maritimus (Linn.) — Golden Dock. 



District ____ 5 ------- 



Lat. 53°-54°. East of Ireland — ^Dublin only. 

 Type in Great Britain, English. 



Boggy ground ; very rare. Fl. July, August. 



5. On Curragha Bog, near Garristown, county of Dublin ;

 D.M. 



Two stations — "A marsh near Clay Castle, Toughal" 

 Fhr. Eib., and " Bogs near Ballycotton " — are given in the 

 " Flora of Cork," but the plant has not been recently found 

 near Cork, and Mr. Carroll believes that some mistake was 

 made in the name. As remarked by Dr. Power, B. maritimus^ 

 R. palmtris, and R. piddher, are all three omitted in Mr. 

 Drummond's printed list (1818), which is of later date than 

 Mackay's Catalogue, in which they were first published as 

 Irish.
