Orch., n° 7 (2010) – Actes 15e colloque de la Société Française d’Orchidophilie, Montpellier Préface Ce 15e colloque marque le 40e anniversaire de notre société, celle-ci ayant vu le jour en 1969. Notre dernier colloque se tenait il y a 10 ans à Paris en 1999, 10 ans c’est long, 10 ans c’est très loin. Il fallait que la SFO renoue avec cette traditionnelle organisation de colloques, manifestation qui a contribué à lui accorder la place prépondérante qu’elle occupe au sein des orchidophiles français et de la communauté scientifique. C’est chose faite aujourd’hui. Nombreux sont les thèmes qui font l’objet de communications par des intervenants dont les compétences dans le domaine de l’orchidologie ne sont plus à prouver. -

VIKING AGE SILVER HOARDS in IRELAND Regional Trade and Cultural Identity
VIKING AGE SILVER HOARDS IN IRELAND Regional trade and cultural identity Linn Marie Krogsrud Master’s thesis in Archaeology Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History University of Oslo Autumn 2008 Cover image: Unlocalized mixed hoard from Antrim c. AD 910 (after Sheehan 2001:54; with courtesy of Ulster Museum, Belfast) Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank my supervisor Lotte Hedeager for her constructive support and optimism. She has made this thesis seem, at times, almost easy to write. Secondly, my other supervisor Stephen Harrison deserves much credit for all his help: his knowledge of Viking Age Ireland and supply of hand-outs have been invaluable. A warm thank you also goes to Julie Lund for stepping in for Lotte. John Sheehan and Charles Doherty willingly shared their ideas and off-prints with me, for which I am very grateful. I would also like to thank Dr. Colmán Etchingham for his bibliography tips, and Unn Pedersen for providing me with the article on Woodstown. A special thank you goes to Zanette T. Glørstad for leading me to the Viking Age silver hoards and for supplying me with one of her articles. Many thanks go to Herdis Hølleland and Tale Marthe Dæhlen for proof-reading the final draft of the thesis. All the students at Blindernveien 11 deserve thanks for all the non-academic conversations in the lunch room, especially Anna Alexandra Myrer, Grethe Móell Pedersen, Gunnhild Wentzel, Maria Valum, Annette Solberg and Elise Naumann. Irish transplant Joanne Ó Sullivan also deserves credit. At last, I would like to thank my family and my good friends Suzanne Leidl and Anja Steinsland for all their support. -

Glaux Maritima L. (Primulaceae), a New Plant Species in SE Europe Antun Alegro, Vedran Šegota*, Nikola Koletić, Nina Vuković, Tihana Vilović, Anja Rimac

(Primulaceae), a new plant species in SE Europe Antun Alegro, Vedran Šegota*, Nikola Koletić, Nina Vuković, Tihana Vilović, Anja Rimac University of Zagreb, Faculty of Science, Department of Biology, Division of Botany, Marulićev trg 20/II, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia Abstract – A small population of the circumholoarctic species Glaux maritima L. (Primulaceae) was discovered in the Mediterranean part of Croatia, on the bank of the River Zrmanja. This is the first record of G. maritima in SE Europe, and the third record in the Mediterranean, apart from in Spain and the Asian part of Turkey. It was found on the open riverbank within sub-halophytic vegetation, forming a small population of several dozen erect stems, most probably clonally propagated. The site is characterized by a periodic intrusion of seawater. We propose to classify this species as critically endangered (CR) on a national level due to the small population size and the fragile habitat, which requires active protection and conservation.

The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.
