ii 4 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



C. ligerica, Gay. Named by Boeckeler ; but his work was 

 not good, as Mr. C. B. Clarke has often shown me. 



C. diluta, Bierb, and C. piinctata, Gaud., the writer says 

 " not the same." If so, diluta is wrongly named in some 

 herbaria ! 



With regard to our Carices, the date 1897 is thirteen years ago. 

 Much has been done since to make for a perfect enumeration, 

 but all has not been done yet. In America, Prof. Bailey has 

 discussed, described, visited Europe, and seen all the types he 

 could ; yet Mr. Fernauld comes along in 1902, and reviews and 

 readjusts many of his conclusions. Had Mr. C. B. Clarke 

 lived, he would have reviewed the whole genus ; the present 

 author of the Carex Monograph, in the " Pflanzenreich," owes 

 much to my late friend. 





ADDITIONS FOR 1908-1909 TO CENSUS OF 

 SCOTTISH HEPATIC^. 



By SVMERS M. MACVICAR. 



THERE are 89 additions to be given since the last instalment 

 was published in July 1908. LopJwzia longidens has not 

 been previously recorded for the west of Scotland. A melan- 

 choly interest attaches to the record of Preissia quadrata 

 from Shetland, owing to the death of the finder, Mr. W. H. 

 Beeby. The death of this most accurate botanist is a great 

 loss to Scottish botany, and an especial loss to those who 

 had the privilege of being his correspondents.
