EEOOEDS OP SCOTTISH PLANTS FOE THE YEAR 1838; 

 ADDITIONAL TO " TOPOG-rlAPHIOAL BOTANY," Ed. 2. 



By Arthur Bennett, F.L.S. 



IN the pages of the Scottish Naturalist during the last three 

 years, I have published records of Scottish plants, carrying 

 the distribution beyond that contained in the second edition of 

 Topographical Botany, Ed. 2. This present paper differs some- 

 what from the former ones in showing the additions by counties, 

 instead of in the sequence of Top. Bot., the names still being those 

 used in that work. It has been pointed out to me that this 

 method is of much greater use to workers, as each one who takes 

 up any given county sees at once just what concerns himself ; 

 while it in no way lessens the general usefulness of the records. 

 The only objection to it is perhaps the repetition of a few names. 

 The counties in the present list commence with the southern one 

 of Dumfries, and proceed in the order adopted in lop. Bot. on- 

 wards to the northern Shetland Isles.
