. Vicia lutea, Eng. Boi., t. g8r! 
This rare Vicia I observed on banks close by the seashore, a 
little way east from the village of North Queensferry, in June 
1804, in company with Messrs. P. Neill and G. White of 
Edinburgh. 
. Hieracium aurantiacum, /7. Dan., ¢. rrr2! 
This beautiful Hieracium may be now regarded as an 
addition to the British flora, as I discovered it in a truly wild 
state in several woods in Ba nffshire, as at Craigston in the 
neighbourhood of Turriff. 
[Wild, but not indigenous; there is no specimen in Mr. 
Knox’s set.—G. C. D.] 
. Anthemis tinctoria, 7/7. Dan., ¢. 747! 
I observed this plant in the fleighboarhcod of Forfar in 1788, 
in abundance; but agricultural improvements have now 
rendered it more rare. 
[A species of casual occurrence rarely found for long in one 
locality. The first Scottish record.—G. C. D.]
