ALPINE FLORA AND FERNS OF NORWAY. 297 



AZALEA PBOCUMBENS, L. ; Fl. D. tab. 9. Common up to the 

 snowdrifts. 



GENTIANE.E. 



MENYANTHES TEIFOLIATA, L. ; FL D. tab. 541. Up to 

 Fogstuen. 



GENTIANA NIVALIS, L. ; Fl. D. tab. 16. Common up to the 

 birch-limit ; rarely found higher. Occasionally found some way 

 down in the region of Scotch fir. 



G. QLACIALIS (Villars); Fl. D. tab. 318. Though found 

 below the limit of Scotch fir, this species does not extend so low 

 down as the last. It is, however, found higher up on the Fjeld, 

 nearly to the continual snowdrifts. 



G. CAMPESTBIS, L. ; Fl. D. tab. 367. Up to about the birch- 

 limit ; varies much in size and in form of leaf. Often found with 

 white flowers. 



G. AMAEELLA, L. ; Fl. D. tab. 328. Up to and above the 

 birch-limit. That found on the Dovre is not so broad-leaved as 

 is represented in Fl. Dan., but bears a greater resemblance to 

 G. obtusifolia /3 spathalata (vide Keichenberg's ' Flor. German. 

 Excursoria,' p. 424). 



POLEMONIDE^E. 



POLEMONTOM c^EBULEUM, L. ; Fl. D. tab. 255. Between Toft e 

 and Dombaas, by Jerkin and Kongsvold; in every place below 

 the birch-limit. 



BORRAGINEJ3. 



LYCOPSIS ARVENSIS, L. ; Fl. D. tab. 435. Common up to Tofte 

 in fields. Not found on the Dovre further north. 



ASPERUGO PROCUMBENS, L. ; FL D. tab. 552. By Tofte, Fog- 

 stuen, and Drivstuen. 



MYOSOTIS C^ESPITOSA (Schultz). General up to Tofte, where 

 it disappears below the birch-limit. 



M. ABVENSis, L. In Drivdal, by Drivstuen and Tofte. 



M. BYLVATICA (Hoffman) ; Fl. D. tab. 583. General in dry 

 shady places over the whole Fjeld. It is found above the limit 

 of birch up to that of the larger willow tribe. It differs slightly 

 from the plate in Fl. Dan. ; has shorter and thicker leaves, flower- 

 stalk with compressed hairs. At higher altitudes which are 

 more exposed it is more stunted in growth, with shorter clusters.
