In the opiniou of the members of the Club, this rare plant 

 had been eradicated from Glen Doll. The plant, however, 

 is known in two other localities in Britain, one in the 

 Braemar district, Little Craigendal ; and the other on Ben 

 Vrackie, near Pitlochry. Another well-known Clova plant, 

 which ought to have been seen to-day, was Laduca alinna, 

 Benth., but no trace of it was seen. They gathered some 

 good alpine plants, including — Arahis hirsuta, Br. ; Sagina 

 Linncci, Presl. ; Dryas octopetala, L. ; Saxifraga nivalis, L. ;

 quite rigida, others towards Goodcnovii : C. rarifiora, Sm. ; 

 C. glauca, Murr., luxuriant specimens ; C. pilulifcra, L. ; 

 C. flaca, L. ; C. ampiullacca, Good. ; Poa nernoralis, L.,
