f. chordalis is the most central of our grac/7is formae, it often approa- 

 ches to f. chmgata, and more rarely to f. dilafata, but usuall\' these three 

 formae are distinct. Like other Cladoniac it varies: scyphi more or less 

 regular, colour glaucous or testaceous, podetia esquamulose or sometimes 

 approaching to the squamulose f. aspcra. Plants from exposed stations are 

 often stunted. 



f cliardalis is by far the most frequent and the most wide-spread of 

 our gracilis-ïorm^e: it is frequent in our whole country, and it ascends 

 from the level of the sea to considerably above the tree line (to 1200 m. 

 or more in Southern Norway).
