A. Biytt in 1870 visited the environs of Ranen-fjord (under 
and a little in south of the polar circle) in company with 
W. Arnell for examining the phanerogams and mosses. As for :.: 
mosses these regions proved to be very rich in species, . 
perhaps the richest part of Scandinavia , as the landscape 
affords the greatest variety of bryological stations. The moun- 
tains are calciferous or silicious and at about 4000 feel over 
the sealevel reach the region of eternal snow. The lower S 
parts of the valleys are till about 1006 feet over the sealevel 
covered with needlewoods of Pinus silvestris and Abies 
excelsa: above the needlewoods the region of Betula glu- 
tinosa begins and continues till about 2000 feet over the 
sealevel ; the next 1000 feet are generally covered by an un- 
derwood of Salices. Between 3000 and 4000 feet over the 
sealevel the alpine region is prédominant. Besides vascular 
plants only musei veri to a number of 289 species are treated 
in this paper, the Hepaticæ (10 a number of at least 75 
species) not being properly named when this paper Was 
issued. Trematodon brevicollis, Dicranum fulvellum, D. vu
