The links with our own upland and al])ine Flora were almost daily 
visible, and it is to be regretted that the opportunity of field work for 
three glorious weeks with local experts should not have been seized 
by more British botanists. 
During the Coupe, I was constantly asked for information in mat- 
ters pertaining to British Botany, and there seems no doubt that it 
gave very real pleasure to the French vSociety to have a B.S.B.J. re- 
presentative on the Excursion.
