In 1>.')7 .1(111. l.\N(iK gave a list of j)hinls uf iJaiiisli Greenland as 

 an appendix to II. Hink: Gronland, statistisk og geographisk beskre- 

 vet vol. II'. I Ilt' list is chiefly based upon the coUections of V.vhl and 

 Hink and on tlif information given by the former on his \vritten and 

 printed labels. Spccial lofalities are only stated for the rarer species, 

 the distribution (»f Ihe common ones is stated by indicating the paral- 

 lels of tlu'ir sonthern and nortiiern limit, as found by \ \iii.. 



According to this list, \ \iii. has found on Disco between 135 and 

 loij species^. Amongst Ihe species here recorded from Disco one state- 

 ment seems to be erroneous, viz. Anemone Richardsoni (see the notes 

 for this species in my list below). 



Duiing l*KNN"^"s voyage some j)lants were galiiered by I'. (\. 

 SiTHEKi.ANn ; a sel of them, named bv \\ . .1. Hooker was given to 

 J. DicKiK, who puhlished them togetherwith a small collection bronght 

 home by 1 .n(;i,ef i eld (see his book: A Summer Search for Sir John 

 Franklin \Xh?> p. \?ih). From Disko 11 species are recorded. 



During Belciieh's expedition a collectidii <if |»lants was made 

 by Lyall; they were determined and |iiij)lished by .1. D. IIookeh 

 (Journal of the Proc. of the Linn. Soc. Bolany vol. 1 ISoT y. 114) who 

 rerords about 56 species from Disko. Of the raier species, Uabenaria 

 alliuld deserves special mention, because up to Ihal dateit had not been 

 found so far north. The following statements are wilhout doubt erro- 

 neous: Lnrhna uUginosa (= Stellaria longipoa)^ Gnap/ial in ni si/lrafirinn 

 (= Gn. norveLHcum I. Arenaria rubra (= ?).
