MACALISTER—ON THE FLORA OF KINROSS-SHIRE. 207 
copods the Ochil Hills furnished Lycopodium alpinum, clavatum, 
selago, and selaginoides. Of Equisetum, the EH. arvense, fluviatile, 
and palustre were common; and E. hyemale, the Dutch rush, grows 
at Cleish, in several places. Of Marsileaceze, Lochleven furnishes 
Isoetes lacustris, as mentioned in the ‘“‘ Flora Scotica,” and Pilularia 
globulifera is to be found in the loch, as wellas in some ponds near the 
Cuthil muir, parish of Orwell. Of Cyperacez I have not been very suc- 
cessful in finding species; Eriophorum polystachyon, vaginatum, and 
angustifolium, Schcenus nigricans, Eleocharis ceespitosus, acicularis, 
and pauciflorus, Carex vulgaris, pilulifera, distans, dioica, paludosa, 
curta, (deri, flava, and ampullacea, exist in the muirs and morasses of 
the Ochil Hills, and along the burnsides in marshes. Of Graminee, 
Nardus stricta; Alopecurus pratensis; Phleum pratense; Phalaris arundi- 
nacea; Agrostis alba, canina, vulgaris; Arundo phragmites; Poa pratensis, 
trivialis, annua, aquatica, fluitans, decumbens; Arrhenatherum avena- 
ceum; Holcus mollis and lanatus; Dactylisglomerata; Cynosurus cristatus; 
Triticum repens, §.aristatum, caninum, Lolium perenne; Anthoxanthum 
odoratum ; Molinia coerulea; Briza media, Keoeleria cristata and Bromus 
sterilis, are not uncommon in occurrence. Of petaloid endogens I have_ 
found Narthecium ossifragum; Luzula sylvatica, campestris (congesta 
Arnott, near Kinross). Juncus bufonius, effusus, conglomeratus, compres- 
sus, acutiflorus, lamprocarpus, squarrosus, supinus, and glaucus; these 
exist in the boggy places near Glenfarg, and among the Ochil Hills, 
Deuglie, and Cuthil. Arum maculatum. This plant is rare in Scot- 
land in general, but it grows freely at Lake of Menteith, Inchmahome, 
and also is found in the neighbourhood of Fossaway, Lemna minor, and 
trisulea, in ponds near the Cuthil. Alisma plantago and ranunculoides 
in Lochleven and several ponds. Potamogeton natans, heterophyllus, 
lucens, pectinatus, crispus, densus, and perfoliatus, in ditches near 
Glenfarg, and in the loch. Allium ursinum, and Agraphis nutans, 
common. Convallaria majalis grows near Cleish, and was first disco- 
vered by Dr. Arnott. Iris pseud-acorus, Orchis maculata, pyramidalis, 
and Epipactis latifolia, complete the catalogue. Listera nidus-avis grows 
in Cleish, according to Mr. Robertson, but was not collected. Malaxis 
paludosa was recorded by Mr. D. Stewart as from Kinross-shire, but I 
did not see any specimens. Gymnadenia conopsea, Habenaria albida, 
bifolia, and chlorantha, are also recorded by Arnott from Kinross. Paris 
quadrifolia was found by Mr. Robertson in Cleish, but I did not see any 
trace of it. Of Gymnosperms, Pinus sylvestris, and Juniperus sylves- 
tris occur, the former in plantations, the latter on the muirs of the 
Ochil Hills. 
The Dicotyledone collected were Euphorbia helioscopia, and pe- 
plus; Mercurialis annua and perennis, the former on the road between 
Perth and Kinross, near Duncrievie; Empetrum nigrum, near Berry- 
Knowe, Damhead, and elsewhere; Callitriche verna, common; Urtica 
urens and dioica; Parietaria officinalis; Myrica gale; Populus canescens,
