species put on record, i.e. Hypericum Androsccmum, Loch 

 Maree, G. Anderson [Lycopus curopccus, margin of Loch 

 Aichaltie, near Craigdarroch (W. Stables), is in East Eoss], 

 and Pingvicula lusitanica. The station for Stachys ambifjua 

 is given more precisely " near Jeantown," where it still 

 occurs. 



In the " Xew Botanists' Guide," 1835, a considerable 

 number of plants from Eoss are given, principally on the 

 authority of Mr. G. Gordon. Most of the unlocalised ones 

 were subsequently placed in the vice-county of East Eoss 

 by Mr. H, C. "Watson. Orohanchc ribhra is an addition to 

 the West Eoss flora ; it was found on a small island not 

 far from the mainland, Gairloch, by E. B. Bowman. 



In Murray's "Northern Flora," 1836, several plants are 

 mentioned as growing in Eoss-shire, but as they are un- 

 localised they cannot be precisely placed in either division 

 of the county. These include Veronica scutellata, Erio- 

 phoruni aiigiistifolium, Triodia, Knautia arvensis, Galium 

 horecdc, Alchcmilla alpina, Azalea procumhens, Hcdera Helix, 

 etc. Mr. Watson subsequently placed most of them to 

 East Eoss. 



In Gordon's "Collectanea for a Flora of Moray, 1839." 

 Scirpus maritimus is noted from Kintail, and Eriophorum 

 puhcscens from Plockton (Mr. Stables), which are additions. 

 Saussurea alpina and Cryptogramme crispa are recorded in 

 the same work by Mr. G. C. Smith from Ben-lea-mohr- 

 guislee, which Mr. Arthur Bennett suggested might be 

 Bienn Liath Mohr in Strathcarron, i.e. in West Eoss. Mr. 

 W. Douglas suggests with greater probability that by this 

 name was intended Bienn Liath Mohr a Ghuibhais Li 

 (2464 feet), which lies about six miles north of Loch 

 Luichart station, i.e. in East Eoss. 



In the " Geographical Distribution of British Plants," 

 the author, H. C. Watson, records a few plants, such as 

 Banunculus Ficaria, B. Flammula, and Nymplicea alba 

 for Eoss, but these again cannot be precisely put to the 

 western portion of the county. 



Anderson, in " The Guide to the Highlands and Islands 

 of Scotland," mentions that Atropa Belladonna grows in 

 the churchyard of Gairloch, where, of course, it was not a 

 native plant.
