 extent of moorland pine-wooded soil with its green silky herbage ; 

 unproductive of capsules, till the wood is thinned. It ascends to 

 the top of the Bizzle and Heuhole ravines, in a remarkably barren 

 soil formed out of porphyritic debris.

13. D. ELONGATUM, /Sc/iiftc^r. This fine addition to the British 

 Flora, I found in July, 1868, a little below the eastern summit of 

 Hedgehope, where it grows in large compact yellow-green tufts, 

 closely matted below with brown fibrils. The situation is much 

 exposed to the blast, and is not particularly moist, the surround- 

 ing herbage being short heather. Mr. Wilson determined the 

 species, and also sent me Nurth American examples in fruit, 

 gathered by Mr. T. Drummond. It has been objected that this 

 cannot be D. elongatmn, but one of the numerous forms of D.
