JULY 12-19. GLEN AFFRIC (INVERNESS-SHIRE) 
Leaders: Miss M. S. C.^mpbell and Dr E. F. Warburg. 
This excursion was arranged for the purpose of making a botanical 
survey of the area included in the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric 
Board’s “ Mullardoch-Fasnakyle-Affric Project ” (Scheme No. 7). 
Professor Clapham kindly took charge ,of a preliminary ecological 
study of Loch Benevean and the surrounding low ground which is 
eventually to be flooded. In adition to this study, there was some ex- 
ploration of the upper slopes and several hills including Mam Soul, 
resulting in a number of new records for v.-c. 96, and interesting lists 
contributing to the knowledge of this little-worked area (there is no 
published County Flora). No details are given here, as a complete 
account of the field work will be available shortly. Three evening 
meetings were held. 
The following members attended in addition to those already men- 
tioned : — Hon. Marjorie Cross, the Misses J. Gibbons, A. Horsfall, C. 
Longfield, M. McCallum Webster, E. Vachell and C. Wickham, Cmdr. 
R. D. Graham, Canon C. E. Raven, Prof. T. G. Tutin, and Messrs 
W. D. Graddon, E. Milne-Redhead, J. Raven, N. Y. Sandwith, N. D. 
Simpson, P. Taylor, C. Townsend, E. O. AVallace, S. M. Walters and 
A, J. Wilmott. Mr D. Poore and a friend (guests) joined in some of 
the expeditions. 
Thanks are expressed to Dr J. Berry and Major-General Ian Grant, 
without whose co-operation it would have been impossible to arrange 
the excursion, and to Major and Mrs Clarke of Fasnakyle, and Col. 
and Mrs Colville for much kindness and hospitality. 
Field-work was facilitated by the lists of species which, although not 
yet recorded for the two vice-counties concerned, might perhaps be 
found, which had been prepared and kindly provided by Mr Wilmott.
