The Flora of Disko Island and Adjacent Coast of West Greenland. 59 
Disko: Locally, but from many localities on the south coast, the fjords and 
from the inner part of the great valleys; scarce on the northland and hitherto not 
found on the north-east coast. 
Hare © (P.). 
Mainland: Holsteinsborg several places, but not common. From the south- 
district of Egedesminde rather common. From the archipelago of Egedesminde 
recorded as “rather common” by Kruvuse; according to our opinion rather scarce. 
In the district of Christianshaab and in the tract to the south of that numerous 
localities. Rare in the district of Jakobshavn; Jakobshavn (V.); Ata (P.); Eqe (P.); 
from several places on the Waygat-coast of Nigssuaq peninsula. 
A southern type, north of the area only recorded from the inner 
part of Nordost-Bugt at Ikerasak; Umanaq and at Igdlorssuit on Ube- 
kendt Ejland 71°15’, this place the north limit of the species. 
Lowland plant, not ascending to any considerable altitude. 
Abundantly flowering and fruiting. 
In the first part of the autumn winter-stander; later on covered 
by snow and often by ice. Never snowless during winter. 
Bi 98. Juncus bulbosus L. (J. suwpinus Morencn). 
In loose mire at the borders of shallow ponds, very rare (no doubt 
often overlooked because of its diminutiveness). 
Mainland: District of Christianshaab: Orpigssuit 68°39’ (Htz.); district of 
Egedesminde: the southern side of Sargardlit 68°37’ (P. & E.). 
A southern type; according to Geterr (Ostenfeld: Fl. Arctica). 
found besides at 60°55’. 
The three localities near the coast, the plants small and quite 
sterile. 
Hibernates enclosed in ice. 
A 99. Juncus castaneus Sm. 
On moist sand and clay, at the shores of lakes and rivulets, on open 
spots in bogs, often among halophilous vegetation; rarer among the 
mosses of bogs and from herb-mats. 
Rather common throughout the whole area. From the district of 
Egedesminde Kruvuse states it as “rare”, but this only applies to the 
outmost islets of the archipelago. 
A southern type, north of the area getting scarcer, limited to pla- 
ces far from the outer coast. The known north limit from the interior 
at Laksefjord 72°20’. Likewise it seems to become rarer southwards; 
south of 63° only known at the terminal moraine of Frederikshaabs 
Isblink 62°30’; probably alpine or descended here. 
Abundantly flowering and fruiting.
