 shall and Shoolhred. My specimens are shorter, and have shorter 

 internodes than in the figures given bv Wettstein and Townsend. 



Plants from the south side of Buchaille Etive Mor, near Kings- 

 house, Argyle, Aug. 1899, closely resemble Wettstein' s figure. Con- 

 cerning these Townsend wrote : " My acquaintance with E. foulaensis 

 is as yet very limited. I can only say confer foulaensis.'' These are 

 more' or less setulose, and the braad capsules are deeply emarginate. 

 They are possibly transitional between E. curt a or E. boreal is and 



E. foulaensis.

 with few, rarely many, branches from below or, more rarely, above the
