\Urtica pilulifera (Linn.) Specimens were sent by Miss 

 Hutchins from Ballylickey, near Bantry {Mackay Cat. Ir.). 

 It is also recorded to have been found at Grlendore and 

 Derry, Carbery (Flor. Cork.). Mr. Carroll has not been 

 able to obtain any further information, therefore, not knowing 

 whether the plant still exists in either locality, we are com- 

 pelled to exclude it for the present. In any case it must 

 have been introduced.]
