PLANTS OF E. PERTH AND S. ABERDEEN 295 



Armadale (W. Sutherland) willow, so named by Dr. Buchanan 

 White, is certainly S. cinerea X repens, as Messrs. Linton have 

 stated. — S. herbacea x lapponwn. 89. Lochy Burn, at 1400 ft. 

 *S. herbacea x nigricans. 89. Rocky bank of a streamlet in Glen 

 Shee, at 1500 ft. ; a trailing bush in fine fruit. The foliage 

 blackened much in drying. — *& herbacea x repens. 89. Not un- 

 common in Glen Shee, between 1200 and 1500 ft., with the parents ; 

 more or less intermediate, but varying a good deal in foliage. It 

 might easily be passed by as a Vaccinium. 92. Between Loch 

 Callater and Lochnagar, at 2500 ft. We also gathered Mr. 

 Linton's original S. cernua on the Little Craigindal. — S. lapponum 

 X repens. 89. The plant published under this name in 1893 

 was cultivated, and proved to be only S. lapponum ; but we found 

 two specimens of the hybrid by the Lochy Burn, so the record 

 can stand. 



Juniperus communis L. 92. A procumbent bush on the rocks 

 of Little Craigindal has the foliage of this, but fruit more like 

 J. nana Willd., and is probably var. intermedia Nyman. 



* Orchis latifolia x maculata. 89. One specimen occurred with 



the parents in Glen Shee. 



[Allium Schcenoprasum L. 92. By the Clunie at Braemar ; cer- 

 tainly an outcast or garden escape.] 



J miens castaneus Sm. 92. One fine plant, high up in Corrie 

 Kander. 



Scirpus Tabernamontani Gmel. 89. Locally plentiful on the 

 north-west side of Fingask Loch; a rare species inland. — S.fluitans 

 L. 89. In the Lunan Burn, near Marlee Loch. 



Carex remota L. 89. Marlee. — C. helvola Blytt. 92. The 

 locality for this on Lochnagar, at 8500 ft., agrees very closely with 

 Balfour's original one for C. Lachenalii Schkuhr (lagopina), as de- 

 scribed by Syme ; but we failed to find the latter after a careful 

 search. However, we were fortunate enough to detect C. helvola 

 at 3300 ft. in the northern corrie, close by a fine patch of G. 

 Lachenalii, and associated with C. curta. We have no doubt that 

 it is C. curta x Lachenalii] and Herr Kiikenthal names good 

 specimens from both stations " C. canescens x lagopina ; very 

 characteristic. " Rev. E. F. Linton has cultivated roots received 

 from Mr. F. C. Crawford, which remained sterile. The pale yellow 

 colour of the spikes is well-marked, especially in dried specimens. 

 C. curta Good. var. fall ax F. Kurtz (under C. canescens L.). 92. By 

 Lochan-nan-Eoin (2500 ft.), Lochnagar. M Differs from var. robusta 

 Blytt ( = dubia Bailey) by its slender habit and small spikelets " 

 Kiikenthal in litt. (Fries gives Blytt' s variety as robustior). Herr 

 Kiikenthal also places here a sedge sent by Mr. C. P. Hurst, 

 gathered on Ben Lawers, at 2900 ft., which matches specimens 

 distributed by Mr. Druce as C. helvola, var. — C. aquatilis Wahl. 



89. Near Spittal of Glen Shee ; a form intermediate between type 

 and var. virescms And. 92. Corrie Kander, on wet slopes at 

 about 2800 ft. ; a small state, which is named forma angustifolia 

 Kiikenth. ined. — *C. aquatilis x Goodenowii. 89. Near Spittal of 

 Glen Shee, with the parents. — C. Goodenowii J. Gay. 92. A strict,
