specimens of Faciis inflatiis, Fiicns spiralis f. nana, Porphyra iimbili- 

 calis and Enteromorpha. 



At 4, the algal vegetation has also the character of algæ be- 

 longing to somewhat exposed coasts. The shore was here rather 

 steep with almost flat rocks in front close to the water's edge; 

 here were found Laminaria digitata, Alaria esciilenta with a sub- 

 growth of Corallina, Gigartina mamillosa, Chordaria flagelliformis, 

 Scytosiphon lomentariiis, Ceramium nibnim, large specimens of Fiicus 

 inftatiis with Elachista fiicicola, Porphyra iimbilicalis, Enteromorpha 

 intestmaUs var. micrococca and Ectocarpus litoralis. At 5, the flora 

 has still almost the same character; here were found Laminaria

digitata, L. saccharina, Alaria esculenta, Himanthalia lorea, Rhody- 

 menia palmata, Gigartina mamillosa, Ceramium rubrnm, Dumontia 

 fdiformis, Acrosiphonia spec. (albescens?), Fncns inftatus (large) with 

 Elachista fiicicola , Fuciis spiralis (large) and Porphyra. Close by 

 the village of Sand there is a small and low mass of rocks (6). On its 

 eastern side, towards the mouth of the fjord, the following species 

 were found: Laminaria digitata, Alaria esculenta, Himanthalia, Rho- 

 dymenia palmata, Gigartina mamillosa and Ceramium acanthonotiim, 

 Acrosiphonia, Fiiciis inftatus (large), Porphyra and Enteromorpha in- 

 estinalis, the principal vegetation thus resembling that of exposed 

 coasts; on the other hånd, the western side of the rock, facing 

 landwards, was covered by the typical flora of sheltered coasts, 

 with Fiiciis uesiciilosus at the top and next to that large luxuriant 

 masses of Ascophyllum nodosum covering the almost horizontal sur- 



several pools of different sizes filled with water, the bottoms covered 

 by Corallina officinalis, and Leathesia difformis was growing epiphy- 

 tically on the latter in great profusion. Monostroma fusciim, M. Gre-
