i34 Tue LirE AND WorK OF GEORGE DON. 
Deyeuxia neglecta, Kunth (Calamagrostis stricta, Nutt.). 
Added to the British Flora by Don from the White Mire 
near Forfar in 1807, and figured under the name of Arundo stricta 
tre Smith in os Bot., t. 2160 (1810), and A. neglecta, Sm., in 
rans. Linn. Soc., x. (181 1), p. 337- It was shortly afterwards 
Kunth, var. doreafs; but the marsh has since been filled up 
with sawdust, resulting from the sawing up of trees blown 
down by the great g gale of 1893. It was a curious coincidence 
that, when in Caithness, just as I was completing the account 
of Don for my address to the Pharmaceutical Conference at 
Dundee, I found Don’s Arundo stricta, te. type Deyeuxia 
neglecta, in a marsh near tiers , thus again adding it to the 
Scottish nee among which I trust it may for a long time be 
numbere 
Hierochloe borealis, &. and S.

as Avena planiculmis by Smith in Bog. Bot., t. 2141 (1810), but 
not of Schrader. Don did not think it was planiculmis, and it is 
now considered to be only a variety of A. pratensis. Specimens
