1898-1902. No. 16.1 FLOW. PLANTS AND FERNS OF N.-W. GREENLAND. 51 



In Foulke Fjord, probably the same locality where KANE had 

 collected it, it grew in the sward of the slopes beneath the rookeries of 

 the little auk. 



Occurrence. S. Cape York (STEIN); Inglefield Gulf: Verhoeff 

 Nunatak (MEEHAN), Fan Glacier (\VETHERILL); Foulke Fjord, inside Etah 

 (225, 1502). 



Antennaria alpina, (L.) GAERTN. 



A. alpina, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [A. alpina, .NATHORST, N. W. 

 Gronl.]. 



The specimens from the only locality in N. W. Greenland that I 

 have seen in the Stockholm herbarium, belong to a form whose leaves 

 are rather densely woolly-haired on the upper surface also. 



Occurrence. S. Ivsugigsok (NATHORST). 



Erigeron compositus, PURSH. 



E. compositus, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [E. compositus, HART, Bot. 

 Br. Pol. Exp.; MEEHAN, Gontr. Greenl.]. 



Curiously enough, this handsome plant has been totally overlooked 

 by most of the previous visitors to Foulke Fjord, where, however, it is 

 rather abundant in the gravelly slopes, forming large tufts with numerous 

 heads of flowers. Many were still in flower when I first visited the 

 place, Aug. 16, 1898. 



Occurrence. S. Inglefield Gulf (MEEHAN); Foulke Fjord (FEILDEN), 

 at Etah (215, 1475). 



Campanulaceae. 



Campanula unifiora, L. 



C. uniflora, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [C. uniflora, NATHORST, N. W. 

 Gronl.]. 



This plant has entirely escaped the american collectors unless the 

 C. rotundifolia var. linifolia of DURAND, Enum. pi. Smith S., should be 

 referred to this species. But that plant is recorded from the dubious 

 locality "Tessiussak" and therefore must be left out of consideration. 

 It might, with better reason perhaps, be presumed that the "gentian" of 

 which KANE, I Grinnell Exp., p. 142, speaks as being seen somewhere 

 between Cape York and Cape Dudley Digges, is the present species.
