THE CONTINENTAL FLORA OF SOUTH SWEDEN 391 



APPENULX I. 



THE CONTINENTAL SPECIES IX THE FLORA 

 OF SOUTH SWEDEN. 



SUMMARY ACCOUNTS OF THEIR EUROPEAN DISTRIBUTION. 



REMARKS: 



1. The species are grouped according to their normal mode of occurrence in South- 

 Eastern or Eastern Europe. The types of vegetation of which I have made use 

 for this purpose are named and described on p. 233. 



2. The types of distribution are indicated by figures, which are given in the outline 

 on pp. 238 — 241. 



3. As to the European distribution area I have made an effort to state as exactly as 

 possible its limits in Russia and its westerly or north-westerly limits in Central or 

 Western Europe. Eor the rest, I must confine myself to referring to the ta.xonomic 

 handbooks. 



4. Being compelled to economize space as much as possible, I have made use of 

 many abbreviations. To the following it may be necessary to supply explanations: 

 a. N., S., E., W., NE., NW., etc. = the North etc., the Xorth-East etc. or the 



northern etc., the north-eastern etc. 

 ^. M = the middle part of a district; that is, a zone across a district between a 

 northern and southern or eastern and western part of the district; 

 WM., EM. etc. = the western, eastern etc. part of such a zone. 



c. C. = an area in the centre of a district. 



d. Roman figures (capitals) are employed to indicate the abundance of a species 

 within an area as follows: I = very rare, II = rare — scattered, III = fairly 

 common — quite common. 



€. The absence of a species in a district is denoted by (). 

 /. D. T. = the type of distribution. 

 g. V. T. = the type of vegetation. 



4. To the statements about the Russian distribution there are given references to the 

 literature by figures, to which a key is to be found in the list of literature below. 

 Concerning the East-Russian governments of Perm, Vyatka, Kazan, Simbirsk, Samara, 

 Ufa, and Orenburg, as well as the Baltic Provinces, Esthonia, Livonia, Courland, 

 and Lithuania, however, no references are given, all statements in these cases being 

 taken from the works of Korshinsky 1898 and Lehmann 1895 — 96. If in other 

 cases no references are given the statements are taken from the compilation ot 

 Herder 1890. [The statements in this work, being taken, as it seems, without 

 sufficient criticism often from too old and obviously dubious works, are to be looked 

 upon very critically]. 



6. "Russia" is here used to cover the European part of the Russian Empire before 

 19 1 4, except, ho\ve^■er, Poland in its extension as a Russian principality and Fin-
