THE CONTINENTAL FLORA OF SOUTH SWEDEN 409 



firmation). As a relic of former cultivation it occurs in some places further to the N. 

 of SE. Swed.). — I). T, II: 2 (a Cassubian variant) — III: 2 b. 



[Corvdalis solida Sw.]. — As a real native this species does not exist in Swed., but it 

 might be said to be represented in the Swed. flora by the very closely allied species 

 C. laxa Fr., which in certain respects holds an intermediate position between C. solida 

 and the Central European C. pumila Rchb. (See Fries, Nov. florae sueciae. Mantissa 

 tertia, 1842 — 45). C. laxa occurs in Swed. only in the E-most part of C. Swed., in 

 Uppl. and Sodermanl. It is also reported from Aland and the SW. Finnish mainland. 

 However, it is said in this region not to be distinguishable from C. solida the two 

 species being merged into each other, A close investigation of this remarkable species 

 has still to be undertaken. 



Gagea minima (L.") Ker-Gawler. — In S. and M. Russia; in N. to [Olonets (71)] 

 Archang. : between the Pinega and the Mesen, "in woods" (62), E. Vologda: "widely 

 distrib. as an introduced plant" (21), S. Perm. — In W. to W. Switzerl., Ingolstadt, 

 Schweinfurt, Thuring., Gottingen, Neuhaldensleben, Frankfort a. d. Oder, Pomer., 

 Mecklenb. at Waren and Doberan (near Rostock), E. Hoist, (a few occur.); Denm. II. 

 (Schleswig o); Norw,: the neighbourh. of Christiania and at Bergen (a native r); Swed., in 

 N. to S. Varml., SE. Ualarne, and the coast region of Norrland (in N. to Vasterbotten : 

 Umea as a fugitive from cultivation or introduced.); S. Finl., in N. to S. Osterbotten 

 (63°), S. Tavastl., Olonets-Karel. — D. T. II: 2 c. Also V. T. 3 and 6. 



Lathvnis vermis (L.) Bernh. — Almost the whole of Russia; rare in the S-most part. 

 As to the W. and X. limit see the map on Plate 22. — I). T. II: 2 c — III: 3 b. 



Lonicera xylosteiun L. — Almost the whole of Russia, in N. to SW. Archang. (40), 

 the whole of Vologda (21), N. Perm (6i°4o'). — Distrib. over NE. Spain and almost 

 the whole of France; it is lacking in the Brit. Isl., the Belg. flat region, and the whole 

 of Holl. In Hanover rare and, probably, often introduced, more abund. and as a real 

 native in S. Hoist. In W. Denm. rare and totally absent in some regions. S. Norw., 

 in N. to Vang, Lorn, and Storelvdal. The whole of S. Swed. ; S. Norrl. (see the map 

 in Andersson & Birger 1912); Finl., in N. to N. Osterbotten, Kajana, and Onega-Karel. 

 (Powjenez). — D. T. II: 4. Also V. T. 3 and 6. 



Poa reviota Forselles. — As there is some confusion between this species and P. Chaixii 

 Vill. and P. hybrida Gaud., its distribution is not yet accurately determined. It seems 

 to be widely distributed in M. Russia and C. Europe (cf. Lindman, Engler's Jahrb. 

 Bd 44, iQio and Korshinsky 1898, p. 475). Accord, to Lindman I.e. it is reported 

 in WC. Europe from NW. Switzerl., Pfalz, Darmstadt, Westph. (the Brilon), Braunschw. 

 (Dromling), Hanover (the town), I>auenb., Propstei, Zeal., Norw. to Salten in N. (not 

 in SW.). In Swed. from Skane to Lule Lappmark (Kvickjock). Cf. p. 367. — D. T. 

 [Ill: 2 c]. 



Pnlmoiiaria obscioa Du Mort. [ = officinalis L. var. immaculata Opiz]. — There are 

 difterent opinions as to the distinction between this type and P. officinalis L. 7'era. 

 Accord, to the statements given by Kerner in his monograph on the genus (Kerner 

 1878), obscura has a more NE. distribution than oft'icinalis. Kerner has seen obscura in 

 N. and M. Russia from: The Lake Onega, Petrogr., on the Valdai hill, Moscow, 

 Kazan, Kiev, and Warsaw; from Dobrudsha, Hung., Galiz., Germ., Switzerl., E. France 

 (Besan^;on), SE. Belg., Denm. (Zeal.). [Russian specimens of officinalis vera he has only 

 seen from Kherson.] As to the Scandin. distrib. of obscura see Plate 11. — D. T. 

 [Ill: 2].
