Mr. Dahlstedt writes: »The form found in a ravine near 

 Kvanhauge seems to me to be the same as T. naevosum Dahlst., 

 a hitherto undescribed species, which is rather comnion in the al- 

 pine and subalpine parts of the Scandinavian mountains. The in- 

 volucres and the fruits of the Færoese form are quite like those of 

 the Scandinavian one, but the leaves differ in lacking the purpie- 

 spots and the coarse hairiness on the upper side. In Scandinavia 

 similar forms have been found here and there and ahvays growing 

 in shadow; they want the spots, but very seldom the coarse hairs, 

 although sometimes very sparsely occurring. 



T. naevosum differs from T. spectabile, var. maculiferum by longer, 

 more patent outer phyllaries, shorter achenes, shorter beak (pyramid), 

 but longer rostrum and developed, more or less abundant pollen.

»Of this very peculiar form only three fruiting individuals have 

 been collected, and it is therefore difficult to examine the characters 

 of the involucre and the phyllaries. It seems to agree with the 

 main species as regards the phyllaries. The achenes also are simi- 

 lar to those of the main species, but they are somewhat longer and 

 more coarsely denticulate towards the top. The leaves bear the 

 same characteristic hairiness of the upper side as the Scandinavian 

 species of the main form. Of this last specimens from open and 

 sunny piaces have deeply and narrowly laciniate leaves, which come 

 rather near to the leaves of the Faeroese form , but are easily di- 

 stinguable by their wanting the laciniation of the second order 

 (»bipinnati fidus«), highly characterizing the Færoese form. This diffe-
