CRYPTOGAMIA ALG.l^. Si, 



This Lichen is much ufed by the Highlanders in 

 dying a reddifli brown colour. They fteep it in 

 urine for a confiderable time, till it becomes 

 lofc, and like a pafte ; then, forming the palle 

 into cakes, they dry them in the fun, and pre- 

 ferve them for ufe, in the fame manner as is be- 

 fore related of the L. tartareus. ^

 to diftinguifh it from the foregoing.
