﻿o. jtava x julva 'U. xanthocarpa Degl.). By rivulets d* 

 from Buchaille Etive Mor, Ben Chaisteil, and Ben-a-Chlee ; in all 

 three cases associated with the parents. 



C. pulla Good. Ben Dothaidh, in quantity. 



Poa alpina L. Ben Dothaidh. It is curious to observe how 

 local this grass is, considering that it is usually reckoned as one of 

 our commoner alpine plants. So far as we have noticed, it 

 usually avoids a granite soil. 



P. glauca Sm. Abundant on Ben Dothaidh and the north side 

 of Ben Douran. Confirms the record for 98. 



P. Balfouri Parnell. Ben Dothaidh (perhaps var. m<mt<nm 

 Parnell) and Ben Creachain. This section of Poa apparently requires 

 further investigation. 



P. nenwralis L., var. glaucantha Reichb. Cliffs of Ben Laoigh, 

 locally abundant.— Var. divaricate Syme. A form not far removed 

 from the last, equally glaucous, but with more patent inflorescence, 

 is placed here by Mr. Bennett; it was growing on rocks by the 

 stream in Cam Glen, near Kingshouse, at about 2000 ft. 



Glyceria plicata Fries. Dalmally, 98* ; also G.pedicellata Towns. 

 (Q.fiuitamxplicata?). 



H>j»u>nophyllum unUaterale Bory. Local on the cliffs of Ben 

 Laoigh, at 2000 ft. 



Woodsia hyperborea R. Brown. Ben Dothaidh, 98*. 



Cystopteris montana Bernh. Wet rocks near the top of Ben 

 Dothaidh. 



Equisetum variegatum Schleicher. In rills on Ben Laoigh. This 

 is not likely to have escaped the notice of previous visitors, but we 

 are unaware of its having been recorded.
