26 Transactions. 
I was fortunately assisted by Messrs R. Hogg and W. Paterson, 
from Kilmarnock. Botanizing along the top of the heughs is 
dangerous work, but along the Mull head and further north on 
the west coast we confirmed the existence of Huphorbia Port- 
landica, Crithmum maritimum, Statice binervosa, vars. occidentalis 
and intermedia, not growing like the common Statice, on sand 
and mud flats, but on the tops and the sides of the cliffs. 
Inula crithmoides, Scirpus Saviti (common), Mertensia maritima, 
Astragalus hypoglottis, very plentiful on the west coast; and 
Oxytropis uralensis in several places. I failed to find the 
following plants once recorded from that district :—Atriplex 
portulacoides, Apiwm graveolens, Brassica monensis, Malaxis 
paludosa, and Ononis reclinata. Concerning the last-mentioned 
plant, of which the only British station is on the farm of Cardrain, 
north of the Mull of Galloway, I may state that it has not been 
seen there for many years, though it has been repeatedly and 
carefully looked for. The farmer was unable to say where the 
plant grew. Frequent landslips may account for its disappear- 
ance. It was discovered here in 1835 by Professor Graham, who 
found it on debris at the foot of the cliffs. 
In continuation of the list of new records, I add the following 
from the neighbourhood of Drummore :—20, Polygala vulgaris, 
var. oxyptera, on a bank facing the sea at Drummore (this var. 
has been found in Scotland before only near Stirling) ; 21, Chara 
contraria, on the west coast, north of Mull of Galloway ; 22, 
Sagina maritima, var. densa, at the south end of West Tarbert ; 
23, Bromus asper, Grennan wood and south of Maryport; 24, 
Bromus arvensis, south of Drummore Quay ; 25, Listera cordata, 
in Shanks Moor and East Tarbert; 26, Hrythreea centawrvum, var, 
pseudo latifolia, var. capitata (Koch), on the west coast in 
abundance ; 27, Cerastiwm semidecandrum, south of Drummore ; 
28, Trifolium striatum, south of Drummore in abundance ; 29, 
Vicia lathyroides, south of Drummore, in fields; 30, Mentha 
aquatica, var. sub-glabra, Ardwell Mill Nam ; 31, Bidens tripar- 
tita, Ardwell Mill Dam; 32, Geraniwm pratense, High Drum- 
more ; 33 Spergularia salina, var. media, Port Logan Quay. 
In addition to the above new records, I may include the 
following new Brambles and Roses, gathered in Wigtownshire in 
1889 by Mr Charles Bailey, Manchester:—Rubus rhamnifolius, 
Rubus umbrosus, and Rubus Sprengelti. The last was gathered
