Parmclia pid)csccns is a subalpine and alpine plant; no Paniirlia ascends 

 higher. In Southern Norway is is common down to 350 — 400 m. s. m., 

 but it sometimes descends to the sea level on maritime rocks. Not so well 

 fertile in the lowlands as on the mountains. — Othervise it is frequent or 

 abundant almost ever3'where on hard rocks in our whole country.

First proposed by Nylander in the collection of Fellman (1863) s. n. 

 Parmelia lanata f. minusada Nyl., as species by Nylander in Enum. Fret. 

 Behr. (1888) p. 10. For synonymy and diagnosis see Wainio Pitlekai 

 (1909) p. 29. 



I have not seen Norwegian specimens quite so small and reduced as 

 in the collections of Arnold and the Krypt. Exsic, but the above speci- 

 mens must be referred to this plant.
