farm, from which they walked a distance to the corrie of 
about three miles. They were all of opinion that this was 
much the easiest way to reach the mountain, as there is ¢ 
path the whole way from Tyndrum to within a mile of the 
corrie ; and no doubt, if the Club visits this district on a 
future occasion, ponies could be obtained for the older 
members to ride on, which would make a day on the 
mountain very much easier than having to walk to the 
botanising ground from the road at Glen Lochy and back 
there again at night. Fortunately, one of the first plants 
found was HKobresia caricina. Cystopteris montana was 
also found, showing that it is largely distributed among 
the rocks on this mountain. The following plants were 
also found: — Allosorus crispus, Arabis petra, Bartsia 
alpina, Carex atrata, C. capillaris, C. dioica, C. panicea, 
C. pauciflora, C. pilulifera, C. pulicaris, C.pulla, C. rigida, 
Cherleria sedoides, Cystopteris fragilis var. dentata, C. 
montana, Dryas octopetala, Epilobiwm alpinum, Galium 
boreale, Hymenophyllum var. (not ascertained) Jwneus 
biglumis, J. castaneus, Kobresia caricina, Melampyrwm 
alpinum, Polystichum Lonchitis (two or three varieties), 
Pyrola rotundifolia, Saxifraga aizoides, S. aizoides vay. 
aurantiaca, S. hypnoides, S. oppositifolia, S. nivalis, 8. 
stellaris, Saussurea alpina, Silene acaulis, Tofieldia 
palustris, Vaccinium uliginosum. The day was cold and 
misty, with a strong west wind. 
The other members spent the day at Tyndrum, where 
Loiselewria procumbens was gathered, but as the day was 
so stormy, fishing on Lochan Bhe was impossible, and it 
was with great difficulty that a few specimens of the 
supposed Scirpus fluitans were obtained. 
The members returned home on Saturday, the Ist of 
August, having had on the whole a fairly interesting 
meeting. The weather, though warm in other parts of the 
country, was extremely cold in the evenings, and there 
was always continual mist on the higher mountains, accom- 
panied by occasional showers of rain.
