Plants, &c, of Selkirkshire, by Rev. J. Farquharson. 83 



plants found here, and known to me under the following names : — 

 Ranunculus aquatilis, Fumaria capreolata, Rubus fruticosus, Rosa 

 villosa Arctium Lappa, Sparganium natans, Festuca bromoides. 



All the species here recorded I have gathered myself, except 

 Arabis Turrita, Viburnum Opulus and Juniperus communis ; so 

 that I am responsible for the accuracy of the list. Mr Brother- 

 ston vouches for those which appear under his name at the end. 

 For a knowledge of some of the localities of our rarer plants, 

 I have been indebted to my friends, Mr Mathison, Bowhill Gar- 

 dens ; Mr James Mathison ; Mr Scott, Selkirk Grammar School, 

 and his son, Mr Alex. Scott, Assistant to Prof. Dewar, Cam- 

 bridge ; and Mr Thomas "Welsh, mill-foreman, Selkirk, a zeal- 

 ous student of our local ferns.
