CALLANDER, 27th September, 1897 (Glasgow Autumn Holiday) 
—On this date a small party, conducted by the President (Mr. 
Robert Kidston, F.R.S.E., F.G.S.), visited Callander. On arrival 
the party walked to Strathyre, but little of special interest was 
seen. One object the excursionists had in view was to re-discover 
the station for Pilularia globulifera, Linn., which had been found 
on the shore of Loch Lubnaig about thirty years before by Messrs. 
Richard M‘Kay and George Horn, but in this the party was 
unsuccessful. It was too late in the year for flowering plants 
to be in good condition, and the only one collected, worthy of 
mention, was Galiwm boreale, Linn., which was found at the Falls 
of Leny. On previous excursions, the President states, Hieracium 
auratum, Fries, and H. boreale, Fries, had been found between 
Leny and Strathyre ; and in Loch Lubnaig, Utricularia vulgaris, 
Linn.

miles. Some distance up a curious line is observed on the steep 
hillside, and soon afterwards traces of other two at higher levels
