All the species of the fern tribe known to exist in the island have 

 been inserted, and their localities given in full detail ; partly because 

 they bear a larger proportion than usual to the flora of Arran, and 

 partly for the sake of those who may take a special interest in them, 

 or wish to procure specimens for cultivation. 



The genera are arranged according to the natural orders, and the 

 names those which appear in Hooker and Arnott's British Flora. 



Our best thanks are due to Professor J. Hutton Balfour of 

 Edinburgh, for his kindness in placing his lists at our disposal. 

 On the authority of these many species have been inserted. A few 

 not observed either by Dr. Balfour or ourselves are inserted on 

 the authority of the late Dr. Landsborough. To these the letter L 

 is affixed. Plants which we suspect to be not truly wild are 

 indicated by an asterisk. We may add, that as such a catalogue can 

 have no claims to perfection, any hints for its correction or extension 

 will be gratefully received.
