Dryas oetopetala. In his second communication Mr. R. Brown 

 remarks on this plant " During the last two years I have searched 

 every likely locality, especially limestone rocks which it affects, 

 but have never seen a trace of it." He goes on to say that 

 " through the kindness of Mr. Peter Anderson of Inverness, one 

 of the authors of the " Guide " (where Dryas was reported), 

 and the Rev. Dr. Gordon of Birnie, who revised the list of 

 Highland plants, I have been favoured with a perusal of the 

 original M.S. and localities ; and I find no locality is given for 

 Dryas ; and the introduction of it into the Caithness list must 

 have arisen from oversight." Yet the plant comes so near the 

 Caithness border, at Melvich, that it might be expected between 

 there and Downreay, where the Oxytropis grows. Dick also 

 states he had many hunts for it.
