 everywhere (HAYES, HART, STEIN, 234); Bedevilled Reach (KANE). N. 

 Along the Kennedy Channel (KANE); Bessels Bay, Cape Morton, Hannah

Hierochloa alpina, (LILJEBL.) ROEM & SCHULT. 



H. alpina, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [H. alpina, SUTHERLAND, Voyage; 

 NATHORST, N. W. Gronl.; MEEHAN, Contr. Greenl.; WETHERILL, List 1894]. 



From the doubtful "Tessiussak, Sept. 4", DURAND, Enum. pi. Smith 

 S., reports H. borealis, which in HAYES'S own list in Op. Pol. Sea, is cor- 

 rected to H. alpina. Besides this worthless record there are several 

 others, which seem to imply that the plant in question is not rare in 

 the southern part of N. W. Greenland,

 Ivsugigsok (NATHORST); Inglefield Gulf: Northumberland Island (STEIN),

Equisetaceae. 

 Equisetum arvense, L. 



E. arvense, SIMMONS, Fl. Ellesm. [E. arvense, WETHERILL, List 

 1894]. 



My specimens, which were found in a small, moist depression of 

 the rock, growing among moss, are of the same small form as those I 

 found in Ellesmereland, and may best be referred to var. riparium, 

 (FR.) MILDE. They are all sterile. 



Occurrence. S. Cape York (WETHERILL); Inglefield Gulf: North- 

 umberland Island (STEIN); Foulke Fjord at Reindeer Point (1515).
