EUPHRASIA IN NORTHERN SCOTLAND 179 



EUPHRASIA IN NORTHERN SCOTLAND. 

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



IN addition to the collections of EupJirasia made by me in 

 Buchan (discussed on p. 172 of this issue), Mr. Townsend 

 most kindly examined a number of my gatherings from 

 other parts of Scotland, and a few specimens contained in 

 the herbarium of the University of Aberdeen. The result 

 has been that, while many are regarded by him as probable 

 hybrids, or cannot be determined with confidence, a good 

 many forms have been determined as occurring in counties 

 or vice -counties for which they had not been previously 

 recorded. I subjoin a list of these records, additions to 

 districts being marked by an asterisk.
