PLANKTON. 7 



EDITOR'S NOTE. 



It has been judged best to include the following list, as it gives the best account 

 available of the marine plankton of the West of Scotland. Unfortunately, 

 the localities given are almost all beyond the area under consideration. Never- 

 theless, the marine free-floating vegetation is not likely to differ greatly in its 

 character in the area from the Mull of Kintyre to the head of Loch Ryan.

x = dead fragments. rr= very rare, cc = very common. r = rare.
