THF PLANTS OF THE GRAMPIANS. 249 
I feel very uncertain, but I think that it occasionally grows 
below the height here stated. 
Hieracium alpinum. By the lake on Ben Nevis, about 
1,850 feet. By a stream from Ben-na-Bourd, at 1,950. 
Drumochter Forest, at 2,050. Clova mountains, about 
2,250. 
Azalea procumbens. By the lake on Ben Nevis, about 
1,850 feet. Drumochter Forest, at 2,050. On Gnarrow, at 
2,200. (About 1,500 feet on Ben Hope, in Sutherland.) 
Salix herbacea. By the outlet of the lake on Ben Nevis, 
1,850 feet. On the north side of Gnarrow, at 2,200. 
Drumochter Forest, at 2,400. On the Killin mountains, 
about 2,400. (Said to grow at an inconsiderable altitude, on 
the north coast of Sutherland. Perhaps as low as 2,300 feet 
in Yorkshire. 
Carex rigida. By the lake on Ben Nevis, 1,850 feet. 
Gnarrow, 2,200. Drumochter Forest, 2,300. Ben Lawers, 2,400. 
Arbutus alpina.. By the lake on Ben Nevis, 1,850 feet. 
Red Cairn, 1,900. Drin Fad, in Locheil, 2,300. (At the 
sea-level in the north-west of Sutherland.) 
Veronica hwmifusa. Probably below 1,800 feet, in Dru- 
mochter Pass. I scarcely know at what altitude to place the 
lower limit of this variety: it is abundant from 2,000 to 3,000 
feet, or upwards. 
Juncus triglumis. At 1,750 feet, on the Killin mountains. 
Drumochter Forest, at 2,100. Probably at a lower elevation. 
Rubus Chamemorus. Drumochter Pass, 1,750 feet. Killin 
mountains, 2,350. (Probably lower, as the locality of East 
Cairn, in the Pentland chain, can scarcely exceed 1,800; and 
those of Cleghorn and Bonnington woods, if accurate, must 
be much lower, though considerably to the south of the 
Highlands.) 
Cornus Suecica. Drumochter Pass, 1,750 feet. Ben Lawers, 
2,400. I believe to have seen it lower in Forfarshire. (Hole 
of Horcum, Yorkshire, which must be of trifling altitude.) 
Carex capillaris. On a low hill by Castleton, in Braemar,
