dense growtli and sliort internodes (being young the scarious- 

 margined l)racts which are a characteristic of C. alpinum liad not 

 yet come out). Togelher with a few other phanerogams ( Eiiphrasiae 

 and Alchimilla faeroensis) they form a small group of species, which 

 is generally dispersed in all the Færoes; but otherwise they have 

 a rather limited distribution. The Færoes seem to form the centre 

 of their developement.

\Ve did not meet with it in our excursions, but specimens from 

 tlie two above-nientioned localities are to be found in the collection of 

 the Museum of the Botanical Gardens.

\eTy common outside enclosed fieids and on the hills as subspe-

 triviale Link is probably rather rare, but still it occurs here and there 

 in enclosed fields.
