H. G. SIMMONS. 



SEC. ARCT. EXP. FRAM 



In Table V., Group I. contains such species as have a rather 

 ubiquitous distribution in the Arctic Regions, or at least in the parts 

 here in question. Most of the plants, especially those of Gr. I, 1, are so 

 widely distributed, that they can hardly be used in comparing the di- 

 stricts, or for forming any conclusion about the origin of the flora. Some 

 may, however, be of interest, as will be shown in the following pages.

 for this discussion:
