In a pond with c. 40 ctm. deep water on sandy ground covered 
with a mudlayer abt. 1 ctm. thick numerous 5—15 ctm. high speci- 
mens were found. The lobes of the leaves 1,5—2 ctm.; with one 
(two) flowers; 5—7 mm. in diameter, pollen well developped, sets 
abundant ripe fruit. A few specimens with very short (4 mm.) 
thick lobes were found in a dried up place in the pond, evidently 
a form of drought.

53. Ranunculus pygmaeus Wablbg. 
Lge. Const. Fl. Groenl. p. 55 & 254. 
Widely distributed in humid cold shady places as well on the 
coast as in the interior, but is most often found on the shady side 
of the mountains and along perennial snow-drifts. This explains 
that neither Berlin nor Bay has collected it.
