Obs. A few of the specimens were determined by H. Dauistrepr. 
North of our area known to at least 72°5’ (Ryder), south of 66°45’ 
no findings are reported till an isolated one at 61°. Not observed in 
East Greenland. 
In accordance with the range of the species in Greenland and Are- 
tic America (see Danisrept) probably a northern type. 
Abundantly flowering and fructificating. 
Covered by snow during winter. 
T 281. Taraxacum arctogenum Dautsr 1. c. p. 27. tab. 16. 
A high-aretie type, occurring north of 76°, only once observed 
in our area on an isletin Sydost Bugt, 68°35’ (Htz. det. H. Dauistep7). 
A 282. Taraxacum croceum Dautst. coll.

Not. 1905. idem: Nordsvenska Taraxaca. Ark. f. Bot. 12. N. 2. 1912. 
For the present I thus denote the most common species of Taraxa- 
cum in our area. They occur on favourable, sheltered spots, common in 
the southern parts of the area and, for instance on the southern half 
of Disko, but scarce or absent on the northern. Thus their occurrence 
corresponds to that of the southern types. The northernmost point, 
where I have seen a representative of this group, is on the south coast 
of Svartenhuk peninsula 71°25’ (P.). 
In our area at least two species occur, one more common with pale 
flowers and a rarer one with larger and darker heads. The last mentioned 
seems to be restricted to the most favourable situations in the south- 
most parts of the area and on South Disko. I have not tried to identify 
them with some of the species of the group provisionally described by 
Dautstept in Bot. Not., but they seem to me to be related to Daxt- 
steDT’s N. 2: spectabile and N. 3: croceum, which, according to the 
author, are known to him from Greenland. 
Abundantly flowering and fructificating. 
Covered by thick layers of snow during winter. 
ab 283. Hieracium hyparcticum Ama. 
In luxuriant herb-mats and willow-thickets. 
Mainland: Only observed in the southern parts of our area: N. Isortoq, 
67°15’ (Ros.); S. Kangerdluarssuk, 67° (Ros.); Holsteinsborg, Prestefjeld, 66°55’ 
(several collectors) all determined by H. Dautstept. Naujarssuit in Qeqertalik- 
fjord, 66°45’ (P. & E.) det. by C. H. Osrenrexp. 
A distinct southern type, south of the area known to 60°. The 
above mentioned localities are the northern limit.
