148 TRANSACTIONS AND TKOCEEDINGS OF THE [Sess. lviii. 



noticed by me on the limestone, as at Kishorn ; by the river 

 in the limestone gorge at Ullapool; and on the Cnochan 

 rocks. 



(? H. PALLIDUM, Fr. — A plant, in seed, of what is probably 

 this species was seen by the river north of Ullapool.) 



* H. MUEORUM, L. — Not uncommon, as at Strome, Ulla- 

 pool, Braemore, Dundonnell, Kishorn, Jeantown, etc. A 

 very handsome form occurred by the ravine of Braemore. 

 Yar. cilintinn; Almq. — Beallach na bo Pass. 



* H. CAESIUM, Fr. — Sgurr Fhuaran. The specimen was so 

 named by Boswell Syme. 



* H. vuLGATUxM, Fr. — Abundant, and generally distributed. 



* H. RUBICUNDUM, Hanb. — Near Ullapool. 



* H. DURICEPS, Hanb. — Strathcarron, but scarcely typical. 



* H. SPARSIFOLIUM, Lindb. — Eare. By the river Broom 

 at the head of Loch Broom ; and the form with blotched 

 leaves " f. ahcrrans crucntata." 



* H. CROCATUM, Fr. — Nortli side of Loch Duich, near 

 Loch Torridon. 



* H. AURATUM, Fries. — Banks of the river at Ullapool, 

 and by the river Carron. 



'"' H. RETICULATUM, Lindb. — Eare. By the river at 

 Ullapool. 



* H. EuPATOEiUM, Griseb. — By the stream at Applecross, 

 a form approaching H. rcticulatum. 



* H. PR^LONGUM, Lindb. — Eare. By a stream near 

 Kinlochewe. 



* Hypociitkris radicata, L. — Abundant and variable. 

 As I came down the Beallach na bo Pass, I saw across the 

 bay of Kishorn a bright band of yellow flowers below the 

 mansion-house; since I could not understand what it was I 

 visited the place, and found it to be caused by a quantity 

 of Hypochccris, which grew at the junction of the limestone 

 with a bed of clay. 



'^ Leontodon autumnalis, L. — Abundant ; var. pratcnsis^ 

 Koch., also common. A form with deeply cut leaves 

 occurred by the roadside near Broom and also at Dun- 

 donnell. The form with woolly involucres is by no means 

 confined to the mountains, it grew by the sea near Ulla- 

 pool. The alpine form, with black, woolly involucres, is 

 common on the hioher mountains.
