1 64 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



BARRIER PLATEAU Sanda to Achinhoan, 19-22 fms., m.c. 



(M.) ; between Sanda Is. and Ailsa Craig, 24 fms. 

 MULL OF CANTYRE, 50 fms. 

 SOUND OF MULL, 70 fms. 



53. THUIARIA CUPRESSINA (Linn.) ( = Sertitlaria eupressina 

 of Hincks's "History").

across Barrier.

SCOTTISH PLANTS, CHIEFLY FROM SKYE, 

 PEEBLES, SELKIRK, AND KIRKCUDBRIGHT. 



G. CLARIDGE DRUCE, M.A., F.L.S. 



(Continued from p. 99.) 



SAGINA SAGINOIDES, Dalla Torre, 3400 feet on Ben Lawers, 88. 



S. SUBULATA, Presl. Dunvegan, Lawson MS. ; on shingle at 

 Sligachan, Skye, 104. 



S. NODOSA, Fenzl. Loch Sligachan, Broadford, 104, Lawson MS. 

 SPERGULA SATIVA, Boenn. Portree, 104. 



MONTIA FONTANA, Z. (M. lamprospermci, Chamisso). The pre- 

 vailing form in Scotland, for which the restricted M. verna 

 Neck., should be queried. St. Mary's Isle, growing in the short 

 turf near the mansion, as well as in gravel paths and ditches, 

 73; St. Mary's Loch, etc., Selkirk, 79; thus completing the 

 comital distribution for the aggregate species. Lawers, 

 Crianlarich, etc., Perth M., 88 ; near Tyndrum, Argyll, 98 ; 

 Fortwilliam, Westerness, 97 ; Loch Alsh, etc., W. Ross, 105 ; 

 Glen Brittle, in stony debris on the road-side, Sligachan, 

 etc., 104. On Loch-na-gar it ascends to 3400 feet. Var. 

 BOREO-RIVULARIS at Crianlarich, Loch Alsh, etc. Even when 

 Montia fontana is reduced to \ in. in size, the seeds remain 

 true to the character, as do those of M. verna, even although the 

 plant is 5 to 6 inches in length and growing nearly submerged 

 as I saw it this year in Jersey.
