FLORA OF BELGIUM, 85 
(Eb. North), Aug. 6, 1884. This aN: sparsely around the bay, 
both sides of the village —EH. F. Liv 
CAaIrHNEss Borany. aie A. ‘Davidson, at p. 23, remarking on 
bably not more than 450, including - varieties.” This is too low an 
estimate. Without going very car ver? through my records for 
the et IT may y safely say, that 5 = be far nearer the 
mentioned in that list I already possess, from Mr. J. Grant, who 
discovered them :—Viola Curtisii Forst., V. lutea Huds., Arenaria 
trinervia L., Geranium sanguineum L., Prunus spinosa L., Rosa 
tomentosa Sm., Epilobium parviflorum Schreb., Myriophyllum 
spicatum ., Callitriche platyearpa Kuetz., Ribes petreum Sm., 
Hieracium anglicum, Fr., H. strict Fr., H. crocatum Fr., H. 
corymbosum Fr. Mr. Grant has also sent ee of a Hieracium 
at is not yet determined, possibly new Britain. Azalea 
procumbens L.., seers m Scorodonia L., Myos hast sabes tris With., 
rientalis europea Atriplex 2 Babingtonii Woods, £. virescens 
Lange, Salix fond L. (fide Leefe), Habenaria viridis Br., Paris 
quadrifolia L., Potamogeton filiformis Nolte, Sparganium minimum Fr., 
C. Bde ieee e. — ood., C. fect Tausch., C. salina f 
Hack.; these three fide Hackel. I have sent seen it remar 
that the Flora of West Sutherland is a rich one, and undoubtedly the 
Coast is so; but a comparison with Caithness does not support t this 
for the county asa whole. There are in Caithness 114 species not 
not in Caithness. In the Pipa there are 52 not found in Caith- 
hess; in Caithness, 92 not found in the Orkneys. Dr. R. Brown 
(Campst. ) tells me that on digtribated his Caithness plants ‘‘ among 
frien'ls and fellow-students”; I should be glad to know if any 
of these are in existenee.-Arruur Benet.
