Pbaeger — On Types of Distribution in the Irish Flora. 35 



refer every Irish plant to some type or combination of types. It is 

 qtiite possible that some of the plants which appear in the lists 

 below may, in the course of time, receive an extension of range that 

 will place them outside of the type to which they are at present 

 referred. On the other hand, future confirmation of the present 

 limits of range may allow other species to be definitely referred to 

 one or other of the " types " which are at present un classed. After 

 the name of each species, its Irish census is given, and its type in 

 Great Britain is added for comparative purposes. 



2. Central TrPE. — Thirty-eight species, with an average range 

 of 15 divisions per species, fall into this group. The distribution of 

 four characteristic plants of this type is shown in figs. 22 to 25.
