FLORA OF HERM. 369 



The seaweeds also are another section of the flora of 

 Herm which in all probability would vield extremely rich 

 results if properly studied. Nothing whatever is known 

 about them at present ; but to work them up at all satis- 

 factorily, so as to produce a fairly representative list, would 

 require at least several months' residence in the island.
