Arctostaphjhts Uva-ursi, Correferron, also a second station. 



With the exception of the Hieracia, I have only two plants 

 to record as new to the district. Unfortunately, they are only 

 casuals, and are Scandix pecten veneris, casual in garden, and 

 Sonchiis arvensis, waste ground at Birnock. 



In the "Journal of Botany" of May, June, and July, 1893, 

 the Messrs E. P. and W. R. Linton publish a list of Hieracia 

 gathered by them in Scotland, a number of them having stations 

 in this district. They have since named specimens of nearly all 

 of them in a collection I sent up to them for that purpose. Their 

 list, applicable to this district, is as follows :— 



Hieracium centripetale, F. J. Hanbury. 



,, clovense, Linton. 



„ callistophyllum, F. J. H. 



,, Langwellense, F. J. H. 



,, Schmidtii, Tausch. 



,, huglossoides* Arvet-Touvet. 



„ arr/entum, Fries. 



,, nitidum, Backhouse. 



„ stcnolepis, Lindel. 



„ stenolepis, var. anguinum, W. R. Linton. 



„ Sommerfeltii, Lindel. 



„ rubicundum, F. J. H. 



„ viurorum, Linn. 



,, murorum, var. ciliatum, Almq. ' 



„ murorum, sub. sp. sarcophyllum, Stenstrom. 



,, duriceps, F. J. H. 



,, euprepes, F. J. H. 



,, stenophyes, W. R. L. 



„ angustatum, Lindel. 



„ strictum, Fr. var. suhcrocatmn, Linton. 



The above Hieracia are pretty evenly distributed over the 

 sub-alpine Linns of the district, as Blacks Hope, Correferron, 

 Midlaw Burn, Andrew Whinney, Whitecoomb, Grey Mare's Tail, 

 Oraigmichen Scaurs, Beef Tub, &c. 



* Mr Linton makes out that the Hieracium gathered by Mr Backhouse 

 at the Grey Mare's Tail in ISoO, and named by him H. mxifrarjam, is the 

 H. huglossoides as above. Transactions of the Society, 1885-86, page 150 ;
