Lge. Consp. Fl. Groenl. p. 87 & 266. 
Found but in a single place in heath on the shady side of a 
mountain range between 150 and 800 mt. above the level of the 
sea from 66° 5'’—66° 9’ lat. N. and only rank in the middle of the 
stated area. Here the tufts attained a diameter of 30—70 ctm. and 
a height above the ground of 15—25ctm., its development was 
also most vigorous almost in the middle of its vertical distribution 
between 500 and 700 mt. above the level of the sea; here almost 
every specimen was flowering (*‘/6—*7/1) and numerous ripe and 
old fruits were seen; lots of young specimens were also found (but 
seedlings were not seen). Many of the less vigorous specimens 
were much injured from Exobasidium. On the extreme points of 
the habitat downwards and in horizontal direction but a single 
sterile and stunted specimen was found after a long time spent in 
searching, while the limit upwards (800 mt.) was due to orographic 
influences, the rock being here covered with debris offering no 
habitat and the boundary-specimens being vigorous and commanding 
cover-forming. 
Kingorsuak from Cassiope Fjæld as far as below the first 
glacier on the west side. 
90. Cassiope hypnoides (L.) Don. 
Lge. Consp. Fl. Groenl. p. 87 & 267, Hartz Fanerog. p. 392. 
Andromeda hypnoides Berlin Karlvaxter p. 53. 
Rather common on herby slopes, on rocky steps, in humid 
places in table-land and among blocks of stone, often in shade. 
The tufts up to 25 ctm. in diameter, thick, up to 5 ctm. high. 
Flowers richly from the 20 of June, sets abundant ripe fruit.
