Zusammenfassung: | This study occurred within the wider context of an ongoing research programme to improve knowledge of the Irish distribution of members of the very large, mainly apomictic Rubus fruticosus aggregate. The relatively isolated Slieve Bloom Mountains, extending across counties Laois and Offaly, were selected for intensive investigation. A series of one-day collecting trips, conducted during 2007-2010, yielded fifty-one different taxa and included three species new to Ireland. Three further entities were recorded, which although not yet described as species, have sufficiently wide distributions in Ireland to qualify for full-scale taxonomic recognition at a future date. |
