In Norway a typical maritime species, distributed along our whole coast 

 from the Swedish frontier to Varanger in Eastern Finmarken. It only quite 

 exceptionally advances to the inland end of our great fjords, and it has 

 never been recorded from continental provinces. — Associated with Par- 

 nic/ia oniplialodcs, Anaptychia fiisca, Anaptychia ciliaris f. iiiclanosticta, and 

 other coast lichens. It is a nitrophilous or even an ornithocoprophilous 

 species. 



It is a frequent or even an abundant species. 



In the herb. Norman there are a few specimens on the tsvigs of Piin/s 

 silveshr from Nordland. I ha\e also seen a few corticolous specimens from 

 our west coast. — Old herb, specimens öfter assume an intense red 

 colour. 



Apothecia are very rare in this country. I have only seen one fertile 

 plant (Klubben, Th. Fr.), with immature, lateral, cupuliformous apothecia 

 with smooth receptaculum, and paraphyses slightly incrassate at their tips 

 and occasionally ramose near their tips. No spores were developed. 



The inner part of the thalline cortex is distinctly plectenchymatous. 

 Near the surface the hyphae are less distinct, but there is no thin 'cortex 

 verus' — set off from the inner part of the 'pseudocortex'. 



Rmmiliiia angiistissinia resembles R.farinacca, but apart of chemical 

 and anatomical differences it is readily- distinguished by its shining, com- 

 pressed thallus.
