NOTES, 
BOTANY. 
Uredo Lynchii. — A Correction. 
In the Jyish Naturalist for January, igio, and April, 191 1, livedo 
Lyucliii. I'lour.. is recoi-ded as an Irish species. Jn a recent paper entitled 
" Mvcolo<4ical Xotcs," i)y W . B. Grove in the Journal of Botany for February 
1913, he points out that the fungus was \vr()u,'_;lv named, and that it is 
really Hemileia Phaji, Syd. The name I'rcdn Lyucliii, IMowr., must 
therefore be removed for tlie present from the Hst of Iri.sh s])ecies. Grove's 
paper also mentif/ns four otlier Irish species.

Falcaria vulgaris in County Down. 
It appears that the plant recorded at ]>. iS of the last volume of the 
Irish Naturalist from Co. Down as Aunni n/ajus, is Falcaria vulgaris, 
Bernh. (Prionoa falcaria of some authors). These two aliens ha\'e such 
a likeness to each other that the mistake can be easih^ accounted for. 
Falcaria is a native of F.urope that has lately appeared in Kent, Hants, 
and Jersey, but I do not knciwof any record for Ireland. I may mention 
that in July last I visited the loca!il\- \',iHMe Dr. Stansiield disco\-ered 
the colony, and I was glad to fmtl it iiourishing. 1 took fhrce stems, 
one f)f which I sent to Mr. Jas. Britten for tlie Ijritish Museum, and another 
I have given to Mr. I'raeger.
