with the ordinary type of the southern and eastern coast of Scania as 
to scape and hairiness of calyx. The inland cultures of Armeria vul- 
garis also show a smooth scape and a calyx hairiness confined to the 
ribs. There are, however, considerable differences in other characte- 
ristics between the cultures of the inland form from the southern 
and middle parts of the country. 
In the further discussion of the different forms of Armeria vulgaris 
reference will be made to table 9. This table lists the results of the 
examination of Armerias from 16 different localities (with 100 indivi- 
duals from ‘each locality) as to the character of the scape, length

of the Swedish west coast (to the left); the type of the southern part of the Swe- 
dish west coast (in the middle); and the type of the cliffs and salt meadows of 
the eastern coast (to the right). The three figured individuals have all hairy scapes. 
and shape of the bracts, and as to hairiness of calyx. The material 
was collected in 1922, in great part by other persons, (viz. nos. 2, 3, 4, 
5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15 and 16) who were carefully instructed, however, 
so as to ensure that no selection was made in collecting. Only one scape, 
the longest one, was taken from each turf. The length of the bracts 
has been graded in 3 classes, and the shape of the bracts in 4, begin- 
ning with the shortest and bluntest ones. The hairiness of the calyx 
has been graded as to the distribution of the hairiness, viz. throughout 
the calyx, mostly confined to the ribs and exclusively confined to the 
ribs. Nos. 1—12 refer to coast form collections, nos. 13—16 to inland
