194 . Barbarea vulgaris, R. Br. [Lit. Brit. 23; N.C.E . 1, 3 a, 18, 
33, 34.] 
Visitor. Coleoptera. (1) Meligethes viridescens F., fp. and sh. on old and 
half-withered flowers, 10. VI. 99, 700 ft. 
195 . Cochlearia officinalis, Linn. [Lit. Brit. 23, 29 ; N.C.E. 1, 14, 25,31, 
35, Hildebrandt 1051.] There are two types (with intermediates) at Clova. 
The larger form, which grows in very wet places on the crags, has the anthers 
and stigma remote from one another by 1 mm. but on the same level : in 
the closing of the flower, on withering, self-pollination invariably occurs, 
fertilization resulting. In the smaller form, which is the plant from Little 
Kilrannoch, figured in the Journal of Botany, xxx, Plate 32(5, the anthers 
and stigma are only \ mm. apart and the flower is smaller — the diameter 
from tip of petal to tip of petal being 6-8 mm. Self-fertilization invariably 
occurs in the withering of the flower. It is noteworthy how variable are the 
flowers of this smaller type, five petals as figured in the Journal of Botany 
having been seen by us as well as six. Once seven stamens were found, the 
normally paired ones on one side being three in number.
