FRULLANIA one 
last province it is frequent in several places. Throughout 
the West Highlands it is frequent and sometimes rather 
common, but is less frequent in the Hebrides. It appears 
to be rare in the extreme north, at least in the unsheltered 
districts, and in Shetland. It is a low-ground species and 
is uncommon on the hills; it ascends to 2700 ft. alt. in Mid 
Perth and to 2000 ft. alt. in the West Highlands. In the 
Lowlands and the drier part of the country in general it 
usually grows on rocks, while in the West Highlands it is 
more frequent on trees of various kinds, including conifers. 
It prefers shelter with moisture, but is sometimes seen in 
exposed situations. It occurs on schistose, gneissic, and 
granite rocks, but has not been found on limestone. This 
species never forms loose, thick patches such as #. Tamarisci 
commonly does, the stems being closely attached to the 
rock or tree. Perianths are rather common, and fruit, 
mature from April to July, is frequent in the West High- 
lands, but rare elsewhere.
