Order XLVII. JUNCAGINACEAE. 



240. Triglochin palustre L. 



Not uncommon in peaty soil in the lowlands. 



Landt (p. 181) mentions T. mdiitimiim as »not uncommon on tlic sea-shore«, 

 but this must doubtless l)e a slip of the memoiy. 



He also (p. 210) mentions Lemmi trisnica L. as »growing everj'where in in- 

 lialjited piaces, where there is stagnant and foul water« ; I believe this to refer to 

 Cdllilriche stafinalis. 



Order XLVIII. LILIACEAE. 



241. Scilla verna Huds, 



Not uncommon on the soutlicrn part of Syd. at Sunnbo, Ogrum, 

 Lobra and Vaag, and also near Punthavn at Trangisvaagfjord. I also 

 found it in 189G on Ost. at Svinaa on a slope near the sea. 



It grows on fairly dry slopes by preference near the sea, but is 

 recorded to have been found by Trevelyan at a height of sonie 100 m. 



It is the first plant mentioned from the Færoes; it was found as 

 early as 1771 and figured in Flora Danica tab. 568.

 as late as middle of July. Fr. niiddle of August.
