SHORT NOTES. 
A+xxw Stratton ror Entca Macxarana.—Hitherto this rare heath 
has been observed only in the vicinity of Craigga-more Hill, and thence 
westward along the road leading to Clifden. It will therefore be 
interesting to record a second Irish locality, which is situated about 
eight miles to the south of Craigga-more. On August 31st I found 
g 
dance a little east of the newly-built police barrack at Carna. Here 
it grows in fair quantity along the mountain heath on the way to 
Lough Sheedagh, and is, as usual, associated with Erica Tetralix. 
On the same ground I gathered some of the forms which appear inter- 
mediate between E. Mackayana and E. Tetraliz, and which seem to 
give some reason for uniting the two plants. ‘hese intermediates 
are much more plentiful about Craigga-more and are very variable,
