The lofty mountains which surround the upper part of Clova, 
present to the Botanist an interesting field for rarities :—not even 
Ben-Nevis, Ben-Lawers and Ben-Lomond, and the high mountains 
of Cairngorm, taken altogether, can furnish such botanical treasures 
as are to be met with on the mountains of Clova. 
On the summit of these mountains, the following plants are to be 
met with.—Those to which an asterisk * is prefixed, are new to 
Britain, and almost all of them peculiar in this country to the 
Clova Mountains.
