Species lists of vascular plants were collected for ten woodlands in Wester Ross. The localities were compared on the basis of these lists and found to be a series from acid, heavily grazed woods containing 41-50 species; to a lightly grazed, base-rich wood in which 124 species were recorded. Tree regeneration and the present status of the woods is discussed.

A new locality for Saxifraga rivularis is described from Beinn Eighe, Wester Ross. Species lists from the site and from two nearby sites are compared in relation to soil analyses.
