Geog raphical Distribution. 



IC A. angusiifoUa VohX., fulgens and plantaginca Pursh, 

 belong to our species, it is diffused northward as far as 

 Greenland and Labrador; which cannot be wondered at, 

 since Messerschmid and John George Gmelin found it on the 

 banks of the Tungusca and the Jenisei (beyond 60° N. Lat.), 

 and Steller found it on Behring's Island. It is remarkable 

 that Linnfcas found it at Torneo (68^ N. Lat.) ; but Wah- 

 lenberg found it not in Lapland. To the south, it grows 

 throughout Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Prussia, Lithuania, 

 Galicia, Hungary, Transylvania, France, and Switzerland. 

 The farther south, the higher it ascends the mountains. It 

 IS even found on ihp Pyrenees.

 power of which is seen particularly in the vascular system, and 

 niust be ascribed to the resinous ingredient which accompanies
