CONTRIBUTIONS TO A FLORA OF THE OUTER HEBRIDES 231 



as U. brevicornis, Celak, 1 and from the Vosges under the name 

 of U. intermedia. I do not know what U. spectabilis, Madauss, 

 may be ; but it is placed under neglecta by Boll, 2 and seems to 

 differ but little from that plant. The history of U. Bremii as 

 a Scottish plant is interesting. There is no doubt the Rev. 

 J. B. Brichan was the first to gather it in 1833, in the Moss of 

 Inshoch in Nairn ; and there is a specimen in Kew Herbarium 

 from him attached to a sheet of continental examples of U. 

 intermedia? In the " Phytologist," i. (1842) 259, he discusses 

 whether the specimens belong to intermedia or to minor. In 

 June 1836 the plant was gathered by Bremi by the Lake of 

 Katzen near Regensdorf, Canton Zurich. They were described 

 by Heer, I.e. in 1839. It was first definitely included in the 

 British Flora, by Mr. F. M. Webb in the " Journal of Botany," 

 in 1876, p. 142. Prof. Babington, in the 3rd edition of his 

 "Manual," 1851, p. 257, remarks " U. Bremii (Heer) is 

 probably a native"; but this seems to have arisen from some 

 idea that it was a Fen plant. 



UTRICULARIA OCHROLEUCA, Hartmu. 



U. INTERMEDIA, Hayne x MINOR, Z., N. Neuman.^ Two forms are 

 reported, viz. f. snbintermedia and f. snbminor ( = U. ochroleuca, 

 f. microceras, J. Strandmark, in exsic. from specimens sent by 

 Dr. Neuman). I have also excellent specimens from "Helsingel, 

 Sweden," July 1871, legit R. Hartmann, comm. Dr. Nordstedt, 

 " e loco classico." 



Here I would doubtfully place Dr. Shoolbred's plant from 

 "small shallow loch and stream near Tarbert, Harris, July, 

 21/7/1894," named at that date U. minor by myself. 



Other specimens that I believe to belong here are "Harris, 

 July 1889, Mrs. Duncan, comm. Mr. King."

 Ed. Bot. Soc." 1894, p. no, and "Proc. Dorset Nat. Hist. 

 Soc." xv. (1894) p. 8 1. 



AJUGA PYRAMIDALIS, Linn. Scarp, high bank of a stream near the 

 coast, and on slopes near, some twenty specimens, commencing 

 to flower early in May. 



South-west side of the hill of Maodal, Harris, at 100 feet. 

 South-west slope of Ben Chaipaval, at about 300 feet, in rough 

 ground among heather and short grass, and moderately dry, 

 Duncan. 



North bank of the ravine at the mouth of the River Creed, 

 on a high rocky cliff, now wooded. A limited number of 

 plants come up every year, W. J. Gibson.
