252 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



P. peetinatus, L. — Wick River, J. Grant. 



Schoenus nigricans, var. nana, Lange. — Loch Winless, pasture by 

 the sea, east of Reay, W. F. Miller ! 



Carex paueiflora. — Morven, R. Dick. 



C. Goodenovii, var. juneella, Fr. (sub. vulgaris). — Thurso river near 

 its mouth, IV. F Miller I 



C. salina, IVa/il., var. Kattegatensis, Fr. (Sp.) — Mr. Nicolson of 

 Wick writes me that this " was sent to Prof. Dickson at Edin- 

 burgh, but was not recognised by him." 



C. paludosa. — Isauld Burn, W. F. Miller, 1889. 



Hieroehloe borealis. — Once found in the Forss Water near the mill, 

 R. Dick. 



Alopeeurus fulvus. — Near the salmon pool, Thurso, R. Brown, I.e. 

 Not on record north of Chester ; but reported from Fife and 

 Forfar, not confirmed. It is reported from many places in 

 Norway north to Varanger. But there is another plant it might 

 have been, lately described as a new sub-species by A. Blytt ; 

 i.e. A. intermedins (= geniculates — -fluita?is Blytt, in "Norges 

 Flora," p. 68; an L?). But we have no specimens to decide 

 from. 



Agrostis alba, var. subrepens, Bab. — Breakwater, Wick, J. Grant. 



Deyeuxia strigosa. — Robert Dick found this at Duran in 1863. 

 Specimens were sent to Prof. H. Balfour, and were named by 

 him " Calamagrostis stricta." Dick, however, evidently did not 

 agree with this determination, as he calls it "The Lapland 

 Rush." 



Poa trivialis, f. grandiflora, Hackel. — Westerseat, J. Grant. 



Athyrium Filix-foemina, var. rhaetieum. — Dunnet Head, R. Dick. 



Lastrea fceniseeii. — Dunnet Head, R. Dick. Would need to be 

 gathered again. 



Polypodium ealeareum. — Morven, R. Dick. Like the last species, 

 this would need to be again gathered before it could be safely 

 accepted. 



Chara fragilis, var. delieatula. — Loch on Holborn Head, Reeves 

 and Ward. 



There are still some 30 to 40 species that should occur 

 in the county, as they nearly all occur either in Sutherland- 

 shire, the Orkneys, or Shetlands.
