List of Vascular Plants. 15- 



Kruuse, East Greenland, p. 204. 



Due d'Orleans, Cape Bismarck (Ostenfeld, 1908, p. 9). 



As usual, this species is rather variable. The tufted form occurs 

 among others. 



Loc. Cape Saint-Jacques; Cape Marie Valdemar; Germania Land: Dan- 

 marks Havn; St. Koldewey. 



34. Poa abbreviata R. Br., Chloris Melvill., 1823, p. 29; Gelert 

 in Ostenfeld, Fl. Ard., I, 1902, p. 124. 



Kruuse, East Greenland, p. 202. 



Due d'Orleans, Maroussia Isl. (Ostenfeld, 1908, p. 9). 



Rich material of this high-arctic species was brought home. 

 It is evidently a well-defined species, and it is hard to understand 

 how Kruuse (1. с.) can "look on it as a high-arctic form of P. laxa." 



Loc. Hyde Fjord in Peary Land; Mallemukfjeld; Lambert Land; 

 Cape Saint-Jacques; Ymers Nunatak; Germania I>and: Danmarks Havn, 

 common everywhere; St. Koldewej'. 



35. Poa glauca M. Vahl, Flora dan., 1790, fasc. 17, p. 3, lab. 964; 

 Gelert, in Ostenfeld, Fl. Arcl., I, 1902, p. 124; P. caesia Sm., Fl. Brit., 

 I, 1800, p. 103. 



Kruuse, East Greenland, p. 203. 



I^oc. Ymers Nunatak; Germania Land: Dove Bugt, Lille Snenæs, Dan- 

 marks Havn. 



Festuca L. 



36. Festuca ovina L., subsp. brevifolia (R. Br.) Hackel, Botan. 



Centralbl., 1881, p. 406: Gelert, in Ostenfeld, Fl. Arct., I, p. 130, 1902. 



Kruuse, East Greenland, p. 204. 



Due d'Orleans, Cape St. Jacques (Ostenfeld, 1908, p. 10). 



I think it is allowable to refer all the specimens to subsp. 

 brevifolia (R. Br.) Hack., but I must admit that I have not been 

 able to find any definite distinguishing character between this form 

 and subsp. supina Schur, as it has been defined by Scandinavian 

 authors. In one locality the species w'as viviparous (dunes at 

 Dove Bugt). 



Loc. Germania Land, rather common. 



Note. It prefers fairly sheltered places and is usually snow-covered 

 during winter. 



Salicaceae. 



Salix L. 



37. Salix arctica Pall., Fl. Ross. II, 1790, p. 86; A. N. Lundslröm, 

 Weiden Nowaja Semljas, Upsala, 1877, p. 31, fig. 1; S. groenlandica
