Mr. John Smith, Corresponding Member, exhibited Hypericum 
elodes, Linn., and Inula dysenterica, Linn., from Ayrshire. Mr. 
Smith had found the former plant beside the Clachrie Burn, in 
Barr Parish, and on the Polgown Burn, in Colmonell Parish. It 
had been recorded previously from Dalrymple and Coylton 
Parishes. The latter plant was found in Ballantrae Parish; and 
Mr. Smith knows of no previous record for the county. 
Mr. R. D. Wilkie exhibited Heterocladiwm heteropterum, Bruch. 
(var. ?), from the Falls of Clyde. This plant was exhibited at the 
meeting of the Society on 26th December last year as Amblyste- 
gium Sprucei, B. & 8. The record was confirmed by Dr. Braith- 
waite, and in the part of his British Moss Flora which was last 
issued this is mentioned as the only Scottish record. A further 
examination of the plant by Mr. Wilkie showed it to be a variety 
of Heterocladium heteropterum, Bruch. This determination has 
been concurred in by Dr. Braithwaite, who sent specimens of 
Amblystegiwm Sprucei, B. & 8., from North America, which were 
also exhibited at the meeting, 
A collection of plants (the third series exhibited) made by the
