same individual (trioecism and monoecism: Axell). £: the 

 stigmatic papillæ were larger than in g. According to 

 Lindman the high degree of protandry makes self-pollination 

 impossible. ?: There are two sizes of $ flowers (corolla 5 — 11 

 mm in diameter) according to Lindman. From Tromsö I have 

 seen specimens with corolla-tube 5 mm, staminodes 1 mm, ovary 

 3 mm in length and corolla 7 — 9 mm in diameter. From Dovre 

 with diameter 5V 2 — 7, corolla-tune 5 — 6 mm, petals 9 mm, 

 calyx-tube 5 mm; the pistil altogether 8 1 / 2 — 9 mm; the rudi- 

 ments of the stamens 2 1 / 2 mm. Even before the flower has 

 opened the styles protrude. 3 : like those from Greenland. 

 Ovules rudimentary. Corolla 8 — 9 mm in diameter, on 

 Dovre even 12 mm, indeed a few as much as 15 mm, calyx- 

 tube 6V2 — 8 mm. The pistil-rudiment may attain a length 

 of 3 1 / 2 mm, petals 14 mm, and the corolla-tube 7 mm. Near 

 Hammersfest and Tromsö I saw many ripe fruits in the 

 female plants; on the Skaadavara mountain in Altenfjord, 

 on the other hand, they had remained barren. 



The Alps (Vaucher, Koch and H. M.). Trioecism. monoecism. 

 The $ flower is as a rule larger than the $, which is larger than the 

 ?. Marked protandry, self-pollination is possible in the case of the 

 $ flower (H. M.). Butterfly pollination. £ is found only singly, here 

 and there, but appears nevertheless to be of far more common occur- 

 rence than in the North. 



29. Dianthus superbus L. 



This large-flowered species with fragrant, finely divided 

 petals seems to occur with £, Ç and o flowers. According to 

 Vaucher the flowers open in the evening and close irregularly 

 during the warm hours of the day.
