60 FLORA ORCADENSIS. 
gathered several specimens in the neighbourhood of 
Black Craig in August 1912. This species—or, more 
correctly, variety—is found only in Orkney and 
Shetland. Dr Fortescue writes :—“A remarkable hairy 
form, with short and fleshy leaves, grows on the cliffs 
south-west of the Kame of Hoy; Ward Hill, Hoy 
(Aug. 1886); pastures, Ramnigoe (July 1886, Col. H. 
H. Johnston. C.B.) Var. hirsuta (Syme) is more 
plentiful in Shetland. Var. /enearis (Syme, in “ Eng. 
Botany”) is the antithesis of the very hairy form 
hirsuta, and is common on sea-washed grassy shores.

Some of the larger plants in Orkney have seven 
veins in their leaves instead of five. To these Syme 
gave the designation var. major.
