and Camclaun near Connor Hill, and in very wet swamps 
on the south side of Castlegregory Lake, 1890.—VI. In bogs 
south of Lough Guitane ; plentiful west of Barraduff near 
Headford and in a swamp by the Glanooragh River north 
of Killarney, 1890-1901.—VII. In swamps near Clogher- 
brian between Tralee and the Spa : R.W.S. 1888, and in 1899. 
. From sea-level, to 800 feet near Connor Hill and in the 
Owenreagh valley, and to 950 feet near the summit of the 
foot-track between the Waterville Lakes and Sneem (2.W.8.) 
and probably ascends higher. 
First record in 1884: Hart, Proc. R.I.A. 
A plant easily overlooked ; it most probably occurs in 
some of the large bogs in the north of the county.

V. On the highest portion of the Great Blasket : Barrington 
1881—a most unlikely station for this moisture-loving 
species, nor was it seen anywhere on the island by Messrs. 
Praeger & Stelfox in 1912. Sparingly by a stream near 
Ventry strand, and—VIII. By the River Brick near Lixnaw : 
R.W.S. 1891. Sparingly near the River Feale in Ballin- 
ruddery demesne near Listowel 1894: R.W.S. 
First record in 1881: Barrington, Proc. B.I.A. 
This appears to be one of the rarest of the Kerry sedges, 
and even in the few localities known, it occurred but very 
sparingly. It is very rare also in the neighbouring county 
Cork and in Donegal. Can Mr. Barrington’s Blasket record 
for this plant given above, really refer to C. arenaria which 
occurs in the station mentioned, although apparently not 
seen there by him ?
