Meeting report

After a Scottish summer meeting in the under-recorded eastern county of East Sutherland in 2006, the BBS returned to the west coast in 2007 to visit the Hebridean island of Mull , v.c. 103. This is relatively well-worked ground, with a published flora based on the fieldwork of the staff of the British Museum (Natural History) between 1966 and 1970 (Eddy, 1978). However, it has received less scrutiny than the neighbouring island of Skye (v.c. 104) and the meeting offered the prospect of adding plants to the island’s flora as well as a welcome opportunity to revisit the rich bryophyte flora of NW Scotland.
