The Flora of Disko Island and Adjacent Coast of West Greenland. 81 
Within the area only a lowland plant. 
Abundantly flowering and fruiting. 
Hibernates abundantly covered by snow. 
Sh 158. Anemone Richardsonii Hook. 
In copses. 
(Disko: On the printed labels of J. Vaux recorded from 69°14’, the lati- 
tude of Godhayn. The specimen does not exist and now the plant is absent 
here. The record may be due to a slip of memory on the part of Vant, but it is 
also possible that the plant has locally become extinct afterwards. The locality 
Lyngmarken, from which the most of the rare plants originate, has suffered very 
much from willow-felling and thus many southern plants have undoubtedly been 
eradicated.) 
Mainland: S. Kangerdluarssuk 67°5’ (Jens.); from various places near Hol- 
steinsborg 66°55’ (several collectors); Naujarssuit in Qeqertalik Fjord 66°45’ (P. & E.). 
A decided southern type; with the exception of the Holsteins- 
borg district only known from a few places in S. Isortog 65°20’—40’, 
Abundantly flowering and fruiting. 
Hibernates abundantly covered by snow. 
dk 159. Coptis trifolia Saciss. 
In herb-mats, willow-copses and vigorous heath. 
Very rare, only in the southmost part of the area. S. Kangerdluarssuk (W. & H.); 
N. Isortog (Ros.); N. Stromfjord at 67°32’ (Sor.); Kangerdluarssuk east of Agto 
67°58’ (B. P.). 
A decided southern type; the last mentioned place represents 
the north limit. According to RoseNviNGE common south of 64°. All 
the northern localities are in the lowland. 
Our specimens were sterile, and I have also got sterile specimens 
from Godthaabs-Fjord, probably it only flowers during favourable 
summers at its north limit. 
Hibernates under a thick layer of snow. 
XXI. Papaveraceae. 
160. Papaver radicatum Rorts. 
In barren gravelly places, new moraine and fell-field, in dried-up 
river-beds and deltas; less common on open heath or among grass and 
other plants in manured soil. Common throughout the whole area, in 
the northern part from the coast to the snow-line, in the southern part 
preferably in the highland.
