TOPOGRAPHICAL BOTANY OF SCOTLAND 33 



which chiefly differs by its bulbous rhizome, and very short 

 radical leaves, appears to be limited to Oeland ; but should 

 be searched for on the Fife, Forfar, and Aberdeenshire coasts. 



I should be glad to forward any specimens of Kceleria 

 to Dr. Domin for his critical opinion. They may be sent 

 to me at 1 18 High Street, Oxford. 



It may be observed that K. ciliata, Kern., which is the 

 K. cristata of European authorities for the greater part, does 

 not appear to occur in Britain. 



Our British Kceleria are, therefore : K. SPLENDENS, 

 Druce (K. valesiaca, Gaud.) ; K. GRACILIS, Pers. (K. nitida, 

 (Lam.)) ; var. latifolia, Domin ; var. gypsacea, Domin ; 

 X supra-arenarict) Domin (gracilis x arenaria) ; K. BRI- 

 TANNICA, Domin (as a sub-species) ; K. ALBESCENS, DC. ; 

 K. ARENARIA, Dum.

ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS TO THE TOPO- 

 GRAPHICAL BOTANY OF SCOTLAND. 



By JAMES W. H. TRAIL, A.M., M.D., F.R.S. 

 (Continued from No. 56, Oct. 1905,^. 235.) 



RUBUS. 



Of this genus I gave a very full revision of the records from 

 Scotland in this Journal (1902, pp. 170-176, 233-244; 1903, pp. 

 41-47, 103-107), in the light of the information contained in the 

 Rev. W. Moyle Rogers' very valuable " Handbook of British Rubi." 

 Instead of indicating below the additions to our knowledge of the 

 Rubi of Scotland since they were discussed in "Topographical 

 Botany of Scotland" in April 1898, I subjoin an abstract of what is 

 at present on record about their distribution. The numbers of the 

 vice- counties that follow the names of species and varieties are 

 grouped to indicate their trustworthiness as records. Those in 

 ordinary type and not enclosed are accepted by Mr. Rogers as 

 absolutely trustworthy. Those in ordinary type in round brackets, 

 thus (73), he accepts as practically trustworthy, though he has not 

 seen examples in or from such districts. Those in ordinary type in 

 square brackets, thus [73], indicate that he notes such records, but 

 considers them as much in need of confirmation. Numbers in 

 italics not in brackets denote forms not verified by Mr. Rogers, but
