RNACULA oF URicuLARIA INTERMEDIA. — Writing of the 
(Proc. Royal Irish Academy, 2nd ser., iii., 700):—‘' This plant

from the point at which the arrested growth recommences the

Eymvs arenarrus 1x Co. Dusriy.—In he middle of last JuneI 
found this rare and handsome northern s on the coast below

also observed Salvia Vancenids apparently at its northernmost 
habitat.—H. C. Harr.
