SCOTTISH PLANTS 97 



Among the plants mentioned in the following pages is 

 Utricularia ochroleuca, R. Hartm., which was gathered by 

 me in Loch Mallachie in 1887, and recorded by me as 

 U. intermedia, in "Journ. Bot" 1888, p. 22. Recently 

 Professor Hugo Gliick of Heidelberg, the author of the 

 important work on aquatic species Biologischc und morpJw- 

 logisclie UntersucJiungcn uber Wasser- und SumpfgewacJise, 

 has been staying with me, and he identified this flowerless 

 example confidently with the above species, for he contends 

 that Neuman's suggestion that ochroleuca is a hybrid of 

 U. minor and U. intermedia is groundless, since he has 

 gathered ochroleuca abundantly in Bavaria in areas from 

 which intermedia is absent. He directed me to a character 

 which enables one to distinguish ochroleuca from intermedia 

 in the flowerless condition, namely the presence of a few 

 utricles on the so-called barren branches, while in intermedia 

 there are none. 



I have added a few notes from Skye, which are contained 

 in Professor Lawson's MS. It was his list of plants 

 (published in "Journ. Bot." vii.) which Watson quotes in "Top. 

 Bot." They were made by himself and the Rev. H. G. Fox. 



An asterisk denotes a supposed addition to " Top. Bot.," 

 a dagger that the plant is not native. 



I have to thank Major Wolley-Dod and the Rev. A. Ley 

 for naming the Roses ; Professor E. Hackel, the Pfarrer 

 Kiikenthal, Dr. Ostenfeld, Wm. Gregory, and the Rev. E. S. 

 Marshall, for kind assistance. 



RANUNCULUS SCOTICUS, Marshall. Sligachan, Skye. Prof. Gliick 

 does not think it worthy of specific rank. I have similar but 

 less fleshy plants from marshy meadows in Oxford and Bucks.
