226 CRYPTOGAMIA ANTARCTICA. [Puegia, the 
Though so widely distributed a Lichen, and, as Fries remarks, ** omnium Lichenum copiosissima ”, this species 
has its limits within the parallels attained by its congeners and other plants. In the south it is stunted at 
Cape Horn, and neither inhabits Kerguelen’s Land or the South Shetlands; whilst, towards the Northern Pole, it 
was not detected in Melville Island, though attaining a much higher latitude in Spitzbergen.

Has. Strait of Magalhaens; Port Famine, Capt. King. 
Not observed in Hermite Island or the Falklands; nor does it extend in the Arctic regions beyond the 
continents of Europe and America.

Has. Hermite Island, Cape Horn, and the Falkland Islands ; local, but very abundant where it occurs. 
We cannot but regard this as the abnormal state of some Oenomyce (possibly of alcicornis or endiviafolia?) ; 
though we have never succeeded in identifying the species. It is a highly Arctic and Antarctic plant, in the 
northern regions advancing to the extreme limits of vegetation, in islands beyond Spitzbergen. It also has been 
collected on the Andes of Peru and of Colombia.

Has. South Chili, throughout Fuegia and the Falkland Islands; from the sea to the hill-tops, very 
abundant. 
A very abundant plant in the higher latitudes of the Southern Hemisphere, from Monte Video on the east, 
Mendoza in Central Chili, Colombia on the Andes, and Juan Fernandez on the west coast of South America to 
Cape Horn. Its various northern limits in the Old World are the Cape colony in South Africa, Nepaul in Asia, 
Swan River in Australia, and Norfolk Island in the Pacific. In Tasmania and New Zealand it abounds, reaching 
52° 8. in Campbell’s Island.

Probably a state of C.coccifera, and the original C. coccifera, a., Linn. It is a native both of the Tropics, 
and north Temperate zones. i

The C. ecmocina, var. gracilis, of Lord Auckland’s group, should be referred here ; its podetia being squamulose, 
though but slightly so.
