togynoiis. The styles are long and white and exceed the stamens in 

 length. The perianth-leaves project Hke a star after the flower has 

 expanded. Pollen is shed and may lie in masses on the perianth-leaves. 



Leontodon autumnale L. — Fl. p. 45. — (Trangisvaag, Lervik). 

 Is visited by Eristalis nemorum. In dense fog the capitula were closed. 



Linum catharticum L. — Fl. p. 69. — (Trangisvaag, July). The 

 tlower is homogamous. Spontaneous self-pollination takes place easily. 



Lobelia Dortmanna L. — Fl. p. 48. — (Sand, Aug.). The corolla 

 is pale violet-white in colour. Fruit is set abundantly. Spontaneous 

 self-pollination appears to take place. 



Lychnis flos cuculi L. — Fl. p. 63. — (Trangisvaag). The tlower 

 is 42 — 50 mm. in diameter. Distinctly protandrous. The anthers 

 are white and contain white pollen. The antisepalous stamens 

 dehisce first, then the antipetalous stamens, and lastly the stigmas 

 ripen. The flowers set fruit, which is large even in the middle of 

 July. Was found fruiting abundantly at Viderejde. 



Matpjcaria inodora L. var. phaeocephala Rupr. — Fl. p. 45. — 

 The capitula attain a diameter of 45 mm. 



Melandrium pubrum (Weig.) Garcke. — Fl. p. 63. — (Trangisvaag). 

 The staminate flowers are 21 — 23 mm. in diameter. The pollen 

 is white. 



Menyanthes trifoliata L. — Fl. p. 47. — (Trangisvaag). Short-styled. 



Montia rivularis Gmel. — Fl. p. 73. — (Trangisvaag). In the 

 small, white flowers of this plant spontaneous self-pollination takes 

 place, as the white anthers touch the stigma. 



Myosotis pepens Don. — Fl. p. 43. — (Trangisvaag, July). Within 

 the yellow, shiny ring round the throat, the anthers are seen to 

 project, so that the proboscis of an insect can scarcely be thrust 

 in without touching them. Ultimately the stigma is on a level with 

 the anthers. Spontaneous self-pollination must be able to take place. 



Naptheoium ossifpagum (L.) Huds. — Fl. p. 81. — (Trangisvaag). 

 The flower is 15 mm. in diameter. The perianth-leaves project 

 like a star, afterwards they bend backwards. Yellowish-red pollen 

 lies loose in the open anthers. There is no honey to be seen. The 

 stamens are erect and spreading. The stigma stands above the an- 

 thers in the middle of the flower. Spontaneous self-pollination ap- 

 pears to be able to take place only with great difficulty.
