Fucus vcsiculosus, Z. Moilen Id., Green Harbour. The Moffen 

 Island specimens were stranded, with the stones to which

 where seaweeds were found growing between the tide- 

 marks ; the ice in other parts would scour or tear them 

 off from their points of attachment. But in this locality 

 the plants were protected from the drift ice by a reef of 

 rocks.
