On the publication of the new edition of H. C. Watson’s well- 
4 known work recently we took the occasion to examine carefully 
“* the records for the divisions Forfar, Kincardine, South Aberdeen, 
k i North Aberdeen, Banff, and Elgin, and find that we are able to 
. make several additions and corrections to the lists, as the results 
. of our own investigations of several years’ duration, or of informa- 
tion supplied to us on trustworthy evidence. We therefore 
present the following notes to the Society as a contribution to- 
wards a more complete acquaintance with the flora of the North- 
_ east of Scotland.

_ ¥.=Forfarshire, K.=Kincardinshire, S.=South Aberdeenshire, 
_ N.=North Aberdeenshire (i.e. Aberdeenshire north of the water- 
_ shed east & west of Inverurie), B. = Banffshire, E. = Elginshire. 
The above divisions are not really natural ones; but we have 
followed them because of their being employed in the book itself ; 
and because this is hardly the suitable place to enter on a dis- 
cussion as to the natural divisions of this part of Scotland. 
The nomenclature employed below is that employed in 
_“* Topographical Botany,” and is used in order to render reference 
to that work more easy.
