^{page 172 note *} It is supposed that this plant was introduced into Loch Leven by an itinerant hawker of gold-fish, who, changing the water in his tanks at the loch, threw out some of the plant. This is quite possible, as Anacharis is commonly used for aerating the water in aquaria, and is sold by dealers for that purpose. In non-peaty water containing a supply of suitable plant food-salts the smallest scrap of this plant bearing a whorl of leaves will grow and increase very rapidly, whether floating or attached to the bottom. That the Anacharis has not become general at other non-peaty lochs of this Area is probably because (I) it propagates vegetatively, as only female plants occur, consequently no seed is produced for dispersal by birds; (2) the form of the plant is such that it is not likely to be carried inadvertently on the legs or bodies of birds; (3) the only effluent of Loch Leven flows directly into the sea without entering any other loch.

He mentions 18 species of mosses and 7 hepatics, most of which are very scarce.—Trans. and Proc. Bot. Soc. Edin., 1908, vol. xxiii., part iv., pp. 348–351.
