I first observed ok plat 3 in July 1789, on dry banks by the 
shore near Dunninauld in Angusshire. I have since observed 
it plentifully on dry. banks by the coast in Kincardineshire, 
from the mouth of the North Water to St. John’s Haven, 
covering a tract of several miles.

atin abundantly on the dies of Arthur’s Seat and Black- 
ford’ Hill near Edinburgh, from whence my specimens were 
collected. A beautiful variety, with double flowers, was shown 
me by the Rev. Mr. Macritchie in Cluny, found by him in 
Derbyshire.

I observed this plant in Mr. Curtis’s collection, under the 
name of P. opaca, as a specimen in my possession evidently

Ranunculus along with the FR. reptans, as some authors have 
regarded them as varieties of the same plant.

R. flammula 8 of Flora Britannica. 
My specimens were gathered near the west end of Loch 
Leven, the Semcs mentioned by Lightfoot. Some of the
