PTILIDIUM CILIARE (L.) Hampe 
Widely distributed from Dumfries to Shetland, especially 
on the east side of the country. It is mostly confined to 
subalpine and alpine localities. Is uncommon in the West 
Lowlands generally, and is rare in many districts of that 
province, as in the Upper Clyde valley. In the East 
Lowlands it is locally frequent, but uncommon as a rule, 
and is rare in the Upper Tweed valley. In Fife and 
through most of the East Highlands it is frequent, and in 
many parts is rather common. In the West Highlands it 
is very rare near the coast, becoming less so on the hills

Outer islands. Is rare in West Ross and apparently un-
