A common and generally distributed species in the 
subalpine region, with the exception of the West Highlands, 
Hebrides, and the western part of the North Highlands. 
It is frequent in the West Lowlands and is very common 
in the Elvanfoot and Leadhills district, where it is the 
characteristic species, but becoming uncommon above 
1600 ft. alt. It is common in the East Lowlands, being in 
greater quantity than in the West Lowlands, anid is occasion- 
ally very common in the Upper Tweed district to 1200 ft. 
alt. It is common throughout the East Highlands and the 
eastern side of the North Highlands, the island of Hoy in 
Orkney, and in Shetland. It is one of the rarest species 
near the coast of the West Highlands, though becoming 
less so on the higher hills towards the upper parts of the 
sea-lochs and on the more inland hills. It is also very rare 
in the Inner Hebrides, having been found only in Jura, and 
it has not been found in a typical form in the Outer 
Hebrides. It ascends to the summit of the hills in Mid 
Perth, and from 1700 ft. alt. to at least 4000 ft. alt. on Ben
