Down— Pools by Kilkeel River at foot of Slieve Bingian, boggy ground

same place, S. & P. 



The vague record in Irish Flora is thus verified. This station would appear 



to have been known to Templeton, who writes (MSS. Vol. A) " Drosera longifolia. 



Stalk scarcely longer than the leaves, capsule constantly three-valved ; found 



in great abundance along with D. rotundifolia and D. anglica in the watery bog at 



the head of Kilkeel River, Mourne Mountains, August 9th, 1788." It must be 



noted that we did not find D. anglica there, or elsewhere in the district. In 



another note, after accurately describing I), anglica, Templeton writes " this is 



common on most of our bogs. D. longifolia I have not met with except on the 



watery bog at the head of Kilkeel River, Mourne Mountains."

The record " Near Belfast, Dr. Mateer " (Flor. Ulst.) turns out unexpectedly 

 to be conect, as shown by a large series of fine specimens in the herbarium of 

 the late Dr. Boswell, now in possession of Mr. F. J. Hanbury. The specimens, 

 which have been examined by R.LI. I*., bear the label "Lagan Canal nearh. tide 

 w. mark, Co. Antrim. Coll. Augt , 1847, and comm. by Dr. Mateer," and they 

 were, no doubt, intended for distribution through the Botanical Exchange Club. 

 It appears improbable that the plant still survives in this station, as the water 

 is now impure, and attempts to refind it have failed.
