 Loc. Germania Land: valley 

 between Annexsø and Sælsø, Hvalros- 

 odde, Dove Bugt, Snenæs, Stormkap. 



Flow. June 22nd 08. 



Note. Members of this species were 

 not found around Danmarks Havn, ex- 

 cepting one specimen from Harefjeld. 

 Further landward from Stormkap to 

 Dove Bugt very common in dry, gravelly 

 soil, usually as isolated specimens. 

 But it was found here and there in 

 tufts of grasses and thrives well in 

 such conditions, at least the leaves 

 become larger. Only once found in an 

 association of (Mssiopc. It has the 

 same distribution asPotcntilla pulchella, 

 and like this species it develops into 



a peculiar "pillar-form" (fig. 3) when growing on the wind-side of gravelh' 

 slopes, where it is snowless in winter. The "pillar" consists of freely pro- 

 jecting stems covered with old, wind-blown remains of leaves, and at the top 

 a small rosette of green leaves which protect the buds during winter. 



Draba L. 

 63 a. Draba hirta L. Sp. pi. ed. 2, vol. II, 1763, p. 897; Lange, 

 Consp. Fl. Groenl., 1880, p. 42. 

 Kruuse, East Greenland, p. 1(53. 

 The true D. hirta seems to be very rare in the area investigated.
