extinct, along the south shore of the Shannon, near Foynes; and 
grows plentifully in the Isles of Arran; and in many localities in

plants of the South-west of Ireland, I gladly acknowledge the 
valuable and most friendly assistance which I have received from 
my friends Mr. Nathaniel Colgan and Mr. Reginald W. Seully ; the 
latter is now engaged in the preparation of a Flora of Kerry.
