 the stream flowing in the Banu at Leuaderg.

 very long, narrow-leaved plant, with narrow, elongated cells. It has

 in Ireland.

 citmm, coming very near var. gracilescens, occurs on calcareous deposit 

 at Ardglass.

Var. stenophyllum ( = var. falcifoliutn, Ren.)— In other bog-holes 



at the same place. 

 H. ochraceum, Turn. — Rocks in R. Bann at Tullyconnaught. 

 Hi cordlfollum, Hedw.— Very abundant and fruiting freely in marshy 



margins of Drumnagalley Bog. It takes there the place usually held 



by H. cuspidahim in like situations.

SOME IRISH BRAMBIvKS. 



BY R. A. PHILLIPS. 



In the following notes are embodied the results of some 

 gatherings of Irish Rtibi made by me as opportunities occurred 

 during the past summer. 



The majority of the specimens were taken on or near the 

 banks of the Shannon in Clare and Limerick, and to the lists 

 for each of these counties I have been able to add several 

 species, one of which (i?. criniger) is new to Ireland. Other 

 records comprise three additions to Cork East, one to Tipperary 

 North, and one to Galway North-east. 



One of the most interesting specimens was that of 

 hesperius, Rogers, a plant hitherto known to exist only in the 

 districts to the north and north-east of Lough Corrib in Galway 

 smd Mayo.
