Mr. Townsend remarks on my Specimens, ‘‘In a very early state 
ss 5 on small ie. the species.’’ — EF. brevipila Burn. & Grem. 
Apparently far the most common eyebright ear es ; 
as in 1901 I found it to be in Clydesdale and West Ayrshire. 
in plenty in all the following stations :— sions ie 195, 
Advie. 96. Grantown. Ne thy. Aviemor Kin Dal- 
whinnie. Found also in great quantity by R. Gacy at ‘Blair Atholl 
(Mid-Perth). After an examination of all my specimens from these 
localities, Mr. Townsend writes :—‘‘ This series of gatherings shows 
how variable F. brevipila is ; and yet the forms run into one another 
to such an extent that it seems impossible to separate them except 
by an artificial and cumbrous creation of names.’’— F. gracilis 
Fries. ill above Kingussie. Dalwhinnie, in great quantity, 
with KF, eet. —E. scotica Wettst. *96. Kingussie, in same 
locality as FE’. gracilis, Commenting on a note of mine to the effect 
that these two forms were ‘ growing side by side’’ on the hill, Mr. 
Townsend writes :—‘ Though E. gracilis and FE. scotica may be said 
to be growing side by side, it will be found that the former is on the 
drier and the latter on the wetter ground. I Boe ay. E. — 
is ‘ericetal,’ FE. scotica ‘paludal’ or ‘uliginal.’” Onsome specimen
