fully trustworthy. Those in italics within square brackets denote 

 records in one of three works, according to the letter they follow, 

 E standing for Ewing's " Glasgow Catalogue of Native and Estab- 

 lished Plants," H for Kennedy's "Clydesdale Flora," and S for 

 Sonntag's " Flora of Edinburgh." Square brackets enclosing the 

 name of any plant denote that the evidence of its existence within 

 Scotland is at least not proved. 



Rubus idseus, L. Every district from 72 to 112. 



var. obtusifolius (IVilld.). Very local, 72, 85, 86, 93, 93, 



(89), [88]. 



var. asperrimus (Steele}. The white -fruited raspberry is 

 recorded by Mr. Rogers only from 87, but is not in- 

 frequent in other vice-counties,^. 91, 92, 93. He 

 says, "It may well be a generally, though only thinly, 

 distributed form, and usually, if not exclusively, of 

 garden origin." I have seen it in woods, in peat- 

 mosses, and in other situations where it certainly had 

 not owed its presence to human action ; but of course 

 birds might have carried the seeds from gardens.
