ON THE FLORA OF SKYE. 109
Mr. H. C. Wtitsoa's records of the same or neighbouring districts has
afforded :
—
The total number of species in our list is 389, and of these
1st, 120 have never been recorded from the " Outer Hebrides."
2ud. 51 have never been recorded from the " Inner Hebrides,"
i. e. including Islay, Mull, Skye, and the neighboming islands.
3rd. 31 have not yet been recorded from the " Inner Western
Highlands," including West Inverness, Argyll, etc.
Lastly. 56 species have been recorded from the " Outer Hebrides,"
by Professors Babingtou and Balfour, that we did not find in Skye ;
but many of these we, no doubt, should have found had our stay been
longer in the island.
This, be it remembered, is only the result of a hurried walk through
the tourist-trodden Skye. It follows that the less frequented islands,
such as Islay, Mull, and many others, would yield still greater results
to a careful search.
