Alcctoria iiiip/rxa was not collected by former botani-sts who evidently 

 considered it to be a little noteworthy shad}' foi-ni of ^.y///»<7/«. It is, there- 

 fore, as yet impossil)!e to desci-ibe its accurate distribution in Norway. 



In niv opinion it is a very good petite espèce, differing from A.jiibata 

 in the chemical reaction, the pale colour of the flaccid thallu.s, and also in 

 its geograi)hical distribution. 



It is abundant and quite a type species in our lowland and subalpine 

 Picea cxrr/sn forests, but it is also found on Piiiiis silvcster and other trees, 

 but not on stones. It is much less widespread than A.jiibata: it is a low- 

 land plant which does not ascend so high on the mountains as the latter 

 species, less c(Miimon towards the west coast, and not recorded north of 

 Lofoten.

A/rctoria Frciiioidii is chiefly found on the twigs of our Conifers, but 

 also on Betu/a odorata. In Southern Norway it has a nai'rower distribution 

 than Picea exce/sa. 



A/ectoria Frenioutii is an easterly plant in Norway. In Southern Nor- 

 way it is yery common or eyen abundant south of Lake Fæmunden and 

 in the central proyinces of Østerdalen. It is scarce and rare west of Øster- 

 dalen, but it is probable that it has been overseen, and that more stations 

 will be iound. It surpasses the Langfjellene only at few places. — I:i
