The Irish Naturalist 
December, 
account of its flora (which has not been systematically 
examined hitherto) will, I trust, follow close on the heels of 
the present discursive narrative. We left again early one 
glorious morning, with the amazing panorama of Connaught 
mountains spread out in every tint of blue — (and I would 
remark parenthetically that the view from Inishturk fur- 
nishes perhaps the finest mountain panorama to be found in 
Ireland) — and drifted back to Renvyle. Thence we cycled 
via Salruck, I^eenane, Lough Nafooey, Clonbur, and Ballin- 
robe, to lyough Carra — a ride through glorious mountain 
scenery unsurpassed in Ireland for variety and beauty. But 
few observations were made by the way. The fine waterfall 
above lyOUgh Nafooey is remarkable chiefly for the beautiful 
pebbles of jasper of many shades that fill the conglomerate 
at the top of the fall. The flora of the lake itself appeared 
extremely poor. The change at Clonbur from the calcifuge to 
the calcicole flora was full of interest. A halt on some lime- 
stone pavements, two miles north-east of Clonbur, revealed 
Euphrasia Salisburgensis once again in profusion, and we 
traced it at intervals to near Ballinrobe. At the same place 
Matricaria discoidea put in an appearance, and till we left the 
district it was our constant companion on every road and 
lane. lyough Carra was reached on the evening of July 21st. 
I have already, in these pages, given some account of the 
result of our botanical observations on and about that pretty 
lake. On our last day we visited the spot, close to Liskilleen 
House north of Ballinrobe, whence Mr. Stanhope Kenny sent 
me Geranium pusillu77i in 1900. We found the plant still 
there, though sparingly, as the spot is now closely grazed. 
The habitat is the edges of a haggard close to a cottage set 
in the middle of large grazing fields, and the plant has the 
appearance of a colonist there. 
I have to record the following additions to the flora of 
Galway West and Galway North-east, as given in Irish 
Topographical Botany," and its " Supplement, 1 901-1905."
