 their northern limits." 



They are abuiulanlly lloweriiii,' ami Iructificating. 



Coverod by snow during winler, /-'/. horralis also by ice. 



Error: The Plantago referred to pag. 13 in Uiis paper should be PL borealis; 

 PL decipiens is a species endeinic in Eastern Atlantic America, difTerent from our 

 Greenland forms. 



XLV. Caprifoliaceae. 

 j^ 263. Linnaea borealis L. 



In open willow thickets. 



Disko: On the northern shore of Diskofjord, at 69°33', found hore in 1902 

 and later several times on the same spot (P.). The piants forms here a wide patch, 

 ordinarily richly flowering. 



Mainland: Præstefjæld near Holsteinsborg 66°55' (W. & H., P. & E.). Both 

 times the piants here were sterile, ours were collected Aug. 1914. 



From the locality in Diskofjord I collected live specimens and cul- 

 tivated them on South Disko. They do not thrive as well as on the 

 natural spots and would be overgrown by other vegetation if left to 

 themselves. As a rule they flower sparingly every year, Init neither in 

 culture nor in nature fruits are hitherto found: 



A distinct southern type, besides only found twico in the 

 southmost Greenland, at 60°13' and 61°10'. 



Covered by thick layers of snow during wintcr. 



XLVI. Campanulaceae. 



V 264. Campanula uniflora L. 



In herb-mats, on rock-shelves, in open heath and alpine barrens, 

 exceptionally amongst low willows. 



Disko: Common, ascending to the limit of vegetation (P.). — Hare (P.). 



Mainland: Nugssuaq peninsule and land east of Disko Bay common (P.). 

 Archipelago of Egedesminde rare (K.,P. & E.). Nordre Stromfjord scarce, princip- 

 ally on the northern slopes and on the hills, bocoming rare in the interior (P. & E.). 

 District of Holsteinsborg neau' the outer coast: rare, in the interior only alpine (Jens.). 



A northern type, without northern limit. South of our area 

 only observed a few times in alpine situations or descended from the 

 mountains, on barrens.
