R. icelandicus (should be R. islandicus) published by Davis (Minne- 
sota Botan. Studies, IV, 1900 p. 472, Native and cultivated Ranun- 
culi of North America and segregated genera) upon specimens col- 
lected by Miss E. Taylor in Seydisfjord in East-Iceland (which does 
not belong to North America!). 
143. R. auricomus L. 
Recorded from the Ferées by Trevelyan and rediscovered by 
Mr. G. Patursson in 1904. 
Str.: Kirkebö, the lowest ledge of the hill above Kirkebö. 
+ R. ficaria L. 
The Rev. J. Landt mentions this species from Kirkebö (Str.), 
and Mr. G. Patursson has seent me pretty and large specimens 
taken April 10., 1904 in full flower. It occurs on the churchyard 
and around the ruins of the cathedral; without doubt it has been 
introduced in former times. 
144. R. flammula L. 
My form speciosa (l. ec. p. 74) resembles in many respects the 
Scottish species R. scoticus Marshall (= R. petiolaris (Lange) Marshall, 
Journ. Botany, XXX, 1892, p. 289, pl. 328), but differs in the more 
numerous, larger and broader petals a. o. 
145. R. glacialis L. 
146. R. repens L. 
147. R. reptans L. 
I should prefer to take this as a distinct species and not as a 
form of R. flammula, as I have done in my list (I. €. p. 74). 
148. Thalictrum alpinum L. 
Fam. XXXVII. ROSACEAE. 
149. Alchimilla acutidens Buser; Syn. A. Wichurae Buser. 
150. A. alpina L. 
151. A. faeroénsis (Lange) Buser. 
In J. Dörfler’s Herbarium normale, Cent. XLVII, Nr. 4654, Ice- 
landic specimens of this interesting species have just (Dec. 1906) 
been distributed, and the well-known authority in Alchimilla Mr. 
R. Buser of Geneva has thereof taken the opportunity of giving a 
rather exhaustive list of citations concerning the form in question. 
He is of the opinion, that it is a subspecies of A. splendens Christ, 
to which it is very near-allied, but its quite peculiar geographical 
distribution removes it so much from the alpine A. splendens and its 
different races, that it deserves — after my opinion — specific rank.
