As there is only a fructified scape of this plant, I am unable 
to say whether it belonged to D. octopetala or to D. integri-

This species is found as far south in Europe as the alps of 
Tyrol, Dauphiny and Switzerland. Gmelin gives it as an in- 
habitant of Siberia; and it is a native of Norway and Lapland. 
Colmaster found it in Labrador; Richardson on the shores of 
the Arctic Sea; Jameson on the west coast of Greenland (for 
I presume that it is the P. Jamesoniana of my friend Mr. Gre- 
ville) ; Captain Parry in Melville Island: and it was also dis- 
covered in several of the places visited during that navigator's 
second voyage.
