Lastrcea filix-mas (Presl.) — North side of island at EJnockbane, &c. 



L. dilata (Presl.) — Sparingly by the sea in Saltpan Bay. 



Polypodium vulgare (Linn.) — Common on the north side ; the variety 

 semi-lacerum occurs at Calico Bay. This is the form that is usually 

 called P. camlricum in Ireland, from which it differs in bearing 

 copious fructification and in other respects. I mention this to 

 correct the statement made in the " Catalogue of Dublin and 

 Wicklow Plants," that P. camhricum occurs in the Dargle. The 

 Dargle fern is P. semi-lacerum, and I doubt if true P. camlricum 

 has ever been gathered in Ireland. My brother, Mr. G. V. Hart, 

 who has long cultivated the Irish ferns, has never met with it.
