Excerpt from Flora Hibernica: Comprising the Flowering Plants Ferns Characeae Musci Hepaticae Lichenes and Algae of Ireland, Arranged According to the Natural System With a Synopsis of the Genera, According to the Linnaean System In 1810, Mr. James Drummond, then Curator of the Cork Botanic Garden, published a catalogue of the plants of the county of Cork - a catalogue highly creditable to that acute and zealous Naturalist, who now fills the situation of Colonial Bo tanist at Swan River, and whose labours will, no doubt, illustrate the Botany of that-interesting region.
