DURAND, Enum. PI., mentions no Gentiana 1 , and it seems very impro- 

 bable that any species of that genus should have reached so far, as no 

 Gentiana is found elsewhere north of 69 in Western Greenland. 



Occurrence. S. Ivsugigsok (NATHORST); Foulke Fjord, above Etah 

 (1505). 



Scrophulariaceae, 

 Pedicularis capitata, ADAMS. 



P. capitata, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [P. capitata, HART, Bot. Br.

This species, first discovered by HART to be a native of Greenland, 

 is still found only in the same locality, where it grew rather sparingly 

 among the grass along small rivulets. 



Occurrence. S. Foulke Fjord, Port Foulke (HART), Point Jensen

Pedicularis hirsuta, L.

This species is doubtless equally common in our area as it is in 

 Ellesmereland and in Northern Danish Greenland. I have explained in 

 Fl. Ellesm. how difficult it is to ascertain what some authors have 

 understood by their names for the species of Pedicularis, and therefore 

 I only refer to what is said there. In the following, the localities are 

 named that can without any doubt be referred to the present plant. 



Occurrence. S. Cape York (WETHERILL); Ivsugigsok (NATHORST); 

 Wolstenholme Sound (!NGLEFIELD); Inglefield Gulf: Northumberland Is- 

 land (STEIN); M'Gormick Bay (MEEHAN); Foulke Fjord: Port Foulke 

 (HAYES) and many other places (226); Fog Inlet (KANE); Rensselaer Bay 

 (KANE). N. Bessels Bay (HART). This locality is not certain, as HART 

 has also used the name for P. lanata. 



Pedicularis lanata, CHAM. & SCHLECHTEND. 



P. lanata, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [P. Kanei, DURAND, PI. Kan.; P. 

 Langsdorffii var. lanata, WETHERILL, List 1894J. 



1 Indeed in PI. Kan. he makes the supposition that Saxifraga oppositifolia might 

 bo the "gentian" of KANE. NATHORST (Nachtr.) has already made the same con- 

 jecture about Campanula uniflora.
