32 Some Galloway Plants. 



^Centunculus minimus, L. 



On Craig-och Moor, Portpatrick ; plentiful. 

 ^Symphytum peregrinum, Ledeb. 



I saw only a single clump of this growing by the side 

 of the Port of Spittal burn, about a quarter of a mile 

 from its mouth. It is a strong, leafy plant, with flowers 

 of a pale pink tinged with light blue when fresh. There 

 is another Symphytum in Wigtownshire (growing abun- 

 dantly in the gully just south of Dunskey Castle, etc.), 

 with very deep blue or dark violet tlowers, which seems 

 to be a colour variety of i>. officinale, L. 

 Anchusa sempervirens, L. 



Roadside between Damnaglaur and Kirkmaiden; Castle- 

 Kennedy ; and Portpatrick. 

 Asperugo procumbens, L. 

 '*' Convolvulus althcpoides, L. 

 ■*C. tricolor, L. 



Stranraer shore ; several of each. 

 Lycopersicuni esculentum. Mill. 



Stranraer shore; on the shing-le about a mile north of 

 Portpatrick; on the shingle north of Drummore; 

 common. 

 Linaria viscida, Moench. (L. minor, Desf.). 



Very plentiful on the railway and siding's from Castle- 

 Douglas eastwards in 1910; several on the railway track 

 at New Luce station in 191 2. 

 Linaria Cymhalaria, Mill. 



Several at Creetown ; and plentiful in Portpatrick. 

 Mimulus Langsdorfii, Donn. (M. luteus, auct. ang".). 



This cosmopolitan g'arden outcast is common in both 

 counties. At Douglas Hall there is a colony growing in 

 the shade, with petals of a darker yellow and more 

 spotted than usual ; and at Kelton there is a colony with 

 smaller flowers and fewer spots. 

 Mentha alopecuroides, Hull. 



South of Creetown; and at Douglas Hall; in v.c. 73. 

 At Morroch Bay; Terally Bay; and Portpatrick; v.c. 74.
