  • Dumfriesshire
    Dumfriesshire Rare Plant Register 2020 Christopher Miles An account of the known distribution of the rare or scarce native plants in Dumfriesshire up to the end of 2019 Rare Plant Register Dumfriesshire 2020 Holy Grass, Hierochloe odorata Black Esk July 2019 2 Rare Plant Register Dumfriesshire 2020 Acknowledgements My thanks go to all those who have contributed plant records in Dumfriesshire over the years. Many people have between them provided hundreds or thousands of records and this publication would not have been possible without them. More particularly, before my recording from 1996 onwards, plant records have been collected and collated in three distinct periods since the nineteenth century by previous botanists working in Dumfriesshire. The first of these was George F. Scott- Elliot. He was an eminent explorer and botanist who edited the first and only Flora so far published for Dumfriesshire in 1896. His work was greatly aided by other contributing botanists probably most notably Mr J.T. Johnstone and Mr W. Stevens. The second was Humphrey Milne-Redhead who was a GP in Mainsriddle in Kircudbrightshire from 1947. He was both the vice county recorder for Bryophytes and for Higher Plants for all three Dumfries and Galloway vice counties! During his time the first systematic recording was stimulated by work for the first Atlas of the British Flora (1962). He published a checklist in 1971/72. The third period of recording was between 1975 and 1993 led by Stuart Martin and particularly Mary Martin after Stuart’s death. Mary in particular continued systematic recording and recorded for the monitoring scheme in 1987/88.

  • Parish Register of Applegarth 1694-1719
    Parish Register of Applegarth 1694-1719 Dumfriesshire Scotland transcribed from the Kirk Session records by Graham & Emma Maxwell © Kirk Session records — National Archives of Scotland references CH2/1220/1,2. © Transcription and indexes — Copyright Graham Maxwell 2010. Published by Scottish Indexes 13 Newington Road, Annan, Dumfriesshire, DG12 5JA [email protected] www.scottishindexes.com/publishing Notes on the Transcription Where have these records been found? The transcriptions that follow are of baptisms, marriages and burials which are to be found in the Kirk Session records of Applegarth & Sibbaldbie Parish, Dumfriesshire, Scotland. These records are held by the National Archives of Scotland in Edinburgh. The entries in the register are taken from two Kirk Session volumes: Volume 1 contains baptisms and marriages from 1694-1703; as well as four death entries from 1697-1702, and four baptism entries from 1763. Volume 2 contains baptisms from 1703-1719; marriages from 1703-1712; and a few mortcloth records from 1704-1715, as well as nine baptism entries from 1765-1766 and a marriage from 1763. These entries are not to be found in the Old Parish Registers of Applegarth parish kept by the General Register Office (Scotland) at New Register House in Edinburgh, which does not commence until 1749, and it is believed they have not been transcribed or indexed before. Calendar Although in England and Wales prior to the year 1752 the year began on March 25, Scotland had adopted the date January 1 as the first day of the year on January 1, 1600. Therefore, at the time of this register the calendar year begins on January 1, as it does today.

    The Story of Caerlaverock National Nature Reserve (2nd edition) For further information about Caerlaverock National Nature Reserve please contact: Reserve manager Scottish Natural Heritage Greystone Park 55/57 Moffat Road Dumfries DG1 1NP Tel: 01387 272440 Email: [email protected] The Story of Caerlaverock National Nature Reserve Foreword Caerlaverock National Nature Reserve (NNR) stretches for 16 kilometres along the north coast of the Solway Firth in Dumfries and Galloway, south west Scotland. There are few places in Scotland like this – a dramatic landscape of mudflats, sandbanks and saltmarsh, which extend beyond the reserve, into the estuary and all the way to England. The reserve is home for tens of thousands of wintering barnacle geese; the entire Svalbard population of barnacle geese, currently approximately 38,0001 birds, return each year to the Solway Firth. Winter also attracts staggering numbers of other wildfowl and waders, such as oystercatcher, pintail and curlew who flock here to feed on the mudflats and roost on the merse (local name for saltmarsh). Summer is quieter, but it is now that one of the reserve’s most unusual inhabitants becomes active. In the shallow pools at the northern edge of the reserve, natterjack toads thrive at their most northerly location in the UK. The saltmarshes are also notable for their landforms, which reveal processes of coastal evolution on an emerging coastline. Caerlaverock is one of a suite of NNRs in Scotland. Scotland’s NNRs are special places for nature, where some of the finest examples of Scotland’s wildlife are managed. Every NNR is carefully managed both for nature and for people.

  • A Guide to Biological Recording in Scotland
    A Guide to Biological Recording t lan ' Produced by the Bipi gical Recording in ScotlaJ d Committee jj n i$ry.1977: Compiled By Alastgir Sommeryille~; PREFACE This manual is intended as a source of information about biological recording of all kinds, covering both the national distribution-mapping schemes and all of the other surveys and recording projects currently active in Scotland. It describes the aims of each scheme and gives an indication of the amount of work and degree of skill required from anybody wishing to participate. The appendices of addresses, reference works and distribution maps are intended to provide a useful way-in to potential recorders. It is hoped that bringing together all the schemes in this way will give readers of this manual some idea of the scope of the investigations being carried out and the part that they might play in improving the knowledge we have of the plants, animals and habitats of Scotland. BRISC would like to thank all the scheme organisers who have been so ready to enlighten us about their projects, the Biological Records Centre, Monks Wood for their support and the Nature Conservancy Council for the financial help to publish this manual. Any factual or implied errors in the text are, of course, entirely ours.
