FURTHER RECORDS OF FLOWERING-PLANTS (PHANEROGAMS) 
AND FERNS FROM THE ISLE oF May. By WILLIAM 
Evans, F.R.S.E. 
The following botanists have recorded their observations 
on the Flora of the Isle of May, at the mouth of the Firth 
of Forth :— 
John Sadler (“ Trans. Bot. Soc. Edin.,” vol. xi. pp. 390- 
392, 1873). 
John Rattray (cbid., xvi. pp. 115-121, 1884). 
Wilham Evans (ibid., xxii. pp. 348-351, 1908: and 
exiv. pp. gl—93, TOLO). 
George West (“ Proc. Roy. Soc. Edin.,” xxx. pp. 173- 
hid, POLO), 
With the exception of my own—which are concerned 
entirely with the Mosses and Hepatics—these papers deal 
more or less with the Phanerogams and Ferns.! Sadler, 
who visited the island along with Professor J. H. Balfour 
1 A few Fungi from the May have been recorded by Mr. A. B. 
Steele and myself (“Ann. Scot. Nat. Hist.,” 1908, p. 58, and 1910, p. 
58). To these there falls to be added Crucibulum vulgare, Tul., which I 
found in Sept. 1910 growing on a piece of old wood in the south garden.
