been found in several of the more sheltered parts of the 
inland districts of this province, but is uncommon. Is 
generally distributed in the West Highlands, being rather 
common in some districts, though in others rare. Is very 
rare in the Inner Hebrides, and has not been found in the 
Outer Hebrides. Is uncommon in West Ross. It appears 
to be absent from the extreme north of the mainland and 
from Orkney and Shetland. 
It is only found in well-sheltered places on the low 
ground, and forms compact yellow-green cushions or tufts 
on moist rocky banks in shade, or among old heather. 
Sterile female plants are very common; male plants are 
rare. Fruit has not been seen.
