The last known plant of Hieracium magniceps (Large-headed Hawkweed) was seen in Glenshee in 2017 and it is now feared extinct; the aim of this weekend meeting is to survey all of its 5 or 6 old sites and see if it can be refound. We will also resurvey the only two sites for Hieracium perthense (Perth Hawkweed), the other very rare endemic known here.

Identification guidance on these two will be provided, and we will try to name material of the staggering 39 other hawkweeds recorded in the glen.
