110 DR. E. DICKIE ON АВСТ1С PLANTS. 
record respecting the vegetation of the North Polar circle, I have 
thought it right to put together notes on small collections made 
at various periods by some of my former pupils, while in medical 
charge of whaling vessels. 
The specimens were contributed by Messrs. W. F. Clarke, A. K. 
Clark, Maitland, Philips, Craig, and Sutherland. 
The localities extend on the east side of Davis's Straits, from lat. 
691? N. to 76? N.; and on the west side from 65? N. to 74? N. 
One of these gentlemen, Dr. P. C. Sutherland, now of Port 
Natal, made good collections when attached to Penny's and 
Inglefield's expeditions; records of these are appended to the 
published accounts of these voyages.
