Contrary to the Dee alpine and subalpine plants are almost absent 

 from the beds of shingle, exposed along the banks of the Spey (Arabis

 evidently introduced with the grain brought to some distilleries about 

 two miles higher up. F. E. Fritsch.

II est rendu compte dans cette note d'une excursion faite 

 par l'Academie de Geographie Botanique au gisement de cine- 

 rites ä empreintes vegetales du Pas de la Mougudo, pres 

 Vic-sur- Cere. M. l'abbe Delmas signale la presence, ä 

 la base du gisement, d'un lit de feuilles mortes qui jonchaient 

 le sol de la foret pliocene, et au-dessus duquel ou trouve des 

 fleurs et des fruits printaniers indiquant que l'eruption a du 

 avoir lieu vers la fin du printemps. La note se termine par 

 une liste des principales especes reconnues par Saporta ou 

 observees plus recemment par d'autres paleobotanistes.
