1887-88.] Additions to the Scottish Flora. 179 



alpinus, Vill., in three localities, besides other additions to 

 the county flora. Coming further south, to the counties of 

 Dumfries, Kirkcudbright, and Wigtown, some good additions 

 have been made by Messrs M'Andrew, Fingiand, and Pro- 

 fessor Oliver, such as Bhynchospora fusca, R. et S., Juncus 

 tenuis, Willd., a second Scottish station for Carex punctata. 

 Gaud., &c.; besides these, many others have been ascertained 

 to have more extended distribution. The full list of these will 

 appear (as usual) in the Scottish Naturalist ; but I may here 

 say that the aggregate number will amount to more than 600 

 new records, — a sufficient evidence that botanists were not 

 idle in 1887. 



I will now notice the additions to the flora, giving a few 

 particulars and references under each : —

Gathered by Mr H. C. Hart, in July 1887, in three 

 distinct places in the northern part of the CuchulHn range, 

 in the Isle of Skye, on the west coast of Scotland, at the 

 height of 2300 to 2800 feet, in very stony and steep places. 

 Mr Hart gathered very few specimens, but by his kindness 

 I am enabled to show one of the plants then found. Asso- 

 ciated with it were Alchemilla alpina, Arahis petroia, Saus- 

 surea alpina, Oxyria reniformis, Saxifraga stellaris, Cerastium 

 alpinum, and Azalea procumhens.
