FLORA OF ARROCHAR MOUNTAINS. Uy § 
JUNCUS ACUTIFLORUS, Ehrh. 
Very abundant on the hillsides, and becoming dominant in 
wet places. The presence of this rush in great numbers is an 
almost certain indication of swampy ground, and as the plant is a 
rather conspicuous object, this fact is a useful one to bear in mind 
in crossing the moors. It ascends to near 2,000 feet, but the 
altitudinal limits have not been ascertained. 
JUNCUS LAMPROCARPUS, Ehrh. 
In similar‘situations with /. acudifforus, but not forming such 
extensive masses, and not ascending so high. 
Juncus ULicinosus, Sibth. 
Common in the bogs throughout the district, ascending to over 
2,000 feet on the mountains. It is very abundant in the swamp 
at the source of the Allt-a-Bhalachain on Ben Arthur. 
JuNcuUS TRIGLUMIS, L. 
Alpine.—In boggy ground at a high elevation. Found on the 
following peaks:—Ben Arthur, 2,300 feet; Ben Narnain, 2,300 
feet; Ben Ime, 2,800 feet ; Ben Vorlich, 2,600 feet. 
LuzuLA VERNALIS, D.C. 
Common in the woods and by mountain streams. Ascends to 
1,000 feet on Cruach-Tarbet. 
LuzuLa MAxIMA, D.C. 
Very luxuriant in shady places and near waterfalls on the 
mountain streams ; also forming clumps in dry places in the open 
at high altitudes. Ascends to over 2,000 feet on Ben Narnain. 
Luzuta spicata, D.C. 
Alpine.—Frequent in rocky places at high altitudes, not 
descending below 2,000 feet. One of the summit plants on 
Ben Vane, altitude, 3,000 feet. 
LuzULA CAMPESTRIS, D.C. 
Very common on moorland pastures at all altitudes in the 
district, ascending to 3,000 feet on Ben Narnain. The variety 
erecta equally common with the type.
