NdiiKi/iiKi pd/viiiirrplia is cDiiiiiion in l'"inmarkcn on the coast and f>n 

 the high mountains. Othfrwisc it lias been recorded here and there on 

 th( mountains, but it is evidently nowhere common. There are only a few 

 maritime stations known from .Southern and none from Western Norway. 



It has a great predilection for large stones where birds like to rest, 

 associated with Xnufhoria lyclinea, ParmcUa sulcata and Physcia frihacia. 

 It is undoubtedly an ornithocoprophilous species. 



Only seen sterile in Norwa\'. 



The type is the broadly ligulate f. lignlala Ach. But more laciniate 

 or acuminate plants are also seen, approaching to \ar. emplccta Ach.

KaiJialiiia sfrrpsi/is is a plant of more southern distribution than R. 

 po/v/iiorp/ia, it has not been recorded north of Trondhjem. 



Very common on large stones and prominent rocks on our southern 

 mountains (ornithocoprophilous species). Hardly seen lower than the upper 

 forest limit. — In southern countries, e. g. in Austria, I have also seen it 

 in the lowlands. 



Treated as a proper species on account of its terminal soredia, pulvi- 

 nate habitus, narrow laciniae and its geographical distribution.
