 Trientalis europa^a. Ben Lawers, in open moist ground, amongst 



Juncns squarrosus, very dwarfish, and bearing only one flower. 



Coppice near Auchmore, in dry sunny situations, where the fruit 



is matured. June, July. 

 Tqfieldia palustris : of common occurrence in swampy places near 



springs, at the middle region of the Breadalbane mountains. July-

 only valves of one capsule, united in the germen to the summit :

Leaves not " flat," but deeply channelled, and rounded at the

 J. higlumis: most plentiful on the north-west side of Mael Greadha. 

 In Fion Glen it is often found growing with Juncus castaneus 

 and J. trmlumis. It occurs also on the south-east side ot

Mael Ghyrdy. June, July. 



Leaves not flat but tubular, and slightly compressed, with distan >
