1898-1902. No. 16.] FLOW. PLANTS AND FERNS OF N.-W. GREENLAND. 53 



As I have previously (1. c., p. 29) mentioned, the P. Kanei of 

 DuRAND 1 belongs to the present species, while his P. lanata is really 

 P. hirsuta. Of the later collectors, only WETHERILL records a P. 

 Langsdorffii var. lanata, which may probably be rightly determined. 

 As I did not find it in Foulke Fjord, nor did NATHORST at Ivsugigsok, 

 it is probably a rare plant in this part of Greenland. 



Occurrence. S. Cape York (WETHERILL); "Smith Sound Stati- 

 ons" (KANE). 



Pedicularis flammea, L. 



P. flammea, LINNAEUS, Sp. Plant., 1753; LANGE, Consp. Fl. Greenl.; 

 KRUUSE, List E. Greenl.; WETHERILL, List 1894; HOOKER, Fl. Bor. Amer. ; 

 BRITTON & BROWN, 111. Fl. ; LEDEBOUR, Fl. Ross.; HARTMAN, Skand. 

 FL; GRONLUND, Isl. Fl. 



Fig. LINNAEUS, Fl. Lapp., T. 4, f. 2; Fl. Dan., T. 1878. 



I have seen no specimens of this plant from any locality within the 

 area, but as it is mentioned by FERNALD, whose identifications are 

 generally reliable and who has evidently been able to discern the other 

 species, I do not hesitate to enter it for the area. 



Occurrence. S. "Quite abundant in low ground at Cape York" 

 (WETHERILL). 



Distribution. East Greenland, West Greenland, Arctic America, 

 Labrador, Rocky Mountains, Alaska, Arctic Russia, Northern Scandi- 

 navia, Iceland. 



Pedicularis arctic a, R. BR. 



P. arctica, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [P. arctica, DURAND, PI. Kan.]. 



I have not myself seen specimens of this plant from our area, but, 

 as previously stated (1. c., p. 32), there cannot be the slightest doubt that 

 the P. arcMca of DURAND, PL Kan., is the real one. 



Occurrence. S. Rensselaer Harbour (KANE). 



Pedicularis lapponica, L. 



As I have previously (Fl. Ellesm., p. 34) shown, HART (Bot. Br. 

 Pol. Exp., p. 35) must somehow have confounded either his specimens 

 of Pedicularis from different stations, or the characters of the species; 



1 In Enum. pi. Smith Sound, the author does not mention his new species as 

 having been found by HAYES, but in Op. Pol. Sea, the name P. Kanei is substi- 

 tuted for P. hirsuta probably by mistake.
