Icelandic specimens are figured in * Fl. Dan.' t. 348- 

 Probably S. pahnata of Hooker's list should be placed here; 

 but he arranged it between S, Hirculus and S. punctata. His S. 

 punctata is probably the form of >S^. nivalis which is so named by 

 Eottboll, the /3. tenuis of AVahlenberg. It does not seem likely 

 that the true >S^. punctata (Linn.) grows in Iceland.

S, grcenlandica (Linn.) is probably a form of this species, in- 

 cluding many of the more compact maritime states " foliis conglo- 

 meratis corrugatis imbricatis." K., Z., M., and 11. record it, 

 and Sir G. Mackenzie is stated to have gathered it- S, decipiens 

 of Gliemaun's list also belongs here. S. tricuspidata (Iletz.)> ^^ 

 which there is a figure in ' Fl. Dan.' (t. 976), does not seem ever 

 to have been gathered in Iceland. Hooker introduced the name. 

 He saw what he thought might be it abundantly at Eeykjavik^ 

 but found no flowers, and lost his specimens* I saw an abund. 

 auce of the compact form of S. cccspitosa at that place, but could 

 not find S. tricuspidata i and others have been equally unsuccess- 

 ful. Baring-Grould records Thingvellir as a locality for it ; but 

 his specimens are compact S. ccespitosa, G., Hj., V., P- & Z., and 

 L, include it in their lists, but record no localities- Vahl expresses 

 doubt concerning it.

Vahl does not know it to be a native, and Solanderhad doubts. 

 Perhaps P. & Z. intend this single plant by the two names ot S. 

 petrcea and S, geranioides. The true S. geranioides is a southern 

 plant, and so is S.petrcea.
