46. Cardamine bellidifolia L. 
Lge. Consp. Fl. Groenl. p. 47 & 251. 
In table-land, 1—5 ctm. high with many stems: flowers in 
July, sets abundant ripe fruit. In shady cracks the tufts become 
very incoherent, the leaves large with long stalks and the flowers 
rare. Not common, but found as well near the sea as in the 
interior, more frequent above than below a height of 300 mt. 
Kap Wandel, Grus Ö, Kingorsuak in several places, Sierak, 
Kordlortok and Amagä near Tasiusak. 
47. Cardamine pratensis L. 
Lge. Consp. Fi. Groenl. p. 48 & 251. 
Very rare; in the edge of brooklets and in low ponds, as well 
submerse as on the dried up ground. The leaves are 2—5, ex- 
ceptionally 8 etm. long with 3—6 couples of leaflets; these are 
broadly oval (f. angustifolia Hook. Fl. boreal. Am. I. p. 45 has not 
been found). All specimens, even a very great one are sterile, not 
even peduncle is indicated. It propagates by prolifie germs on the 
leaflets. These loosen themselves from the plant, fold or roll them- 
selves together against the upper surface of the leaf, and the germ 
appears at the ground of it; still, I have seen a few with the germ 
in the middle of the upper surface of the midrib. Roots shoot out 
in a number of 1—6 on the under side of the germ. Especially 
the end leaflets seem to be particularly disposed to the formation 
of germs, but I have also observed them on the side leaflets. The 
formation of germs does not take place, till after the leaf has 
loosened itself from the mother-plant. 
Pool near Kordlortok Sö, ponds and dry pools in Elvbakker and 
in the colony brook between the houses. 
48. Arabis alpina L. 
Lge. Consp. Fl. Groenl. p. 48 & 251, Berlin Kärlväxter 
p. 23, Hartz Fanerog. p. 392. 
Widely distributed on herby slopes, on rocks, in fertile places 
in the heath ete. It flowers from the 15 of June—the 15” of 
August, with fruit in August, sets abundant ripe seed.
