 p. 176: Gelert in Ostenfeld, Fl. Arcl., I, 1902, p. 128. 



Kruuse, East Greenland, p. 202. 



The whole of the rich material oï Glyceria (the following species 

 excepted) must he referred to Gl. angustata, although it varies greatly 

 in many respects, e. g. in the shape of the panicle, the flat or convolute 

 leaves. Quite another question is, whether it is possihle to draw a 

 houndary line between this species and G.distans (L.) Wahlenb. in 

 its arctic aspect. 



Loc. Hyde Fjord in Peary Land; Mallemuktjeld; Kulliøj (the only 

 Dccurrin«^ I)lant on the moraine toward the border of the ice); Germania Land, 

 conuiion. 



Note. Occurs often in beds of water-courses, but most frequently in 

 wet clayey soil, where the tufts spread them.sclves, and the culms and leaves 

 occur closely pressed to the t)ottom.

The few specimens collected bear viviparous spikelets in a con- 

 tracted panicle and agree well with Spitzbergen specimens named 

 P. colpodea Th. Fr. (Öfv. K. Sv. Vet. Förh., Stockholm, 1869, p. 138) 

 by Th. Fries himself.
