On August 22°"^ we left Scoresby Sund; after a short visit 

 to Cape Greg on the east coast of Liverpool Land on Aug. 

 23'^'^, and to Cape Brown in the mouth of Fleming Inlet on 

 August 24^*^, we made a longer visit to Fleming Inlet, Aug. 

 25Ü1 — 26*b. 



Cape Brown (Chr. Kruuse). 



On August 24^^* we landed at Cape Brown, where the foot 

 of the mountain consisted mostly of barren débris. Yet a little 

 stream had cut itself a narrow and deep cleft in the rock, and 

 through it I went up the mountain. The rocks are highly ice- 

 ground and almost without any loose soils and, accordingly, 

 nearly devoid of continuous higher vegetation. Here and 

 there, however, in the cleft of the stream a little sand had 

 formed, and thanks to the avantages of shelter and with abun- 

 dant humidity the plants were thriving surprisingly well. I 

 noted during an ascent of about 300 m: 



Dryas octopetala f. minor, Chamœnerium latifolium, Si- 

 lène acaulis, Arenaria ciliata, Alsine biflora (partly flor. lila- 

 cinis), A. verna v. propinqua, Melandrium involucratum v. af- 

 fine, Cerastium alpinum f. lanatum, Draba alpina, D. nivalis, 

 D. Fladnizensis, D. arctica, Papaver radicatum, Saxifraga 

 decipiens, S. cernua, S. oppositi folia, Pedicularis flammea, Cas- 

 siope tetragona, Vaccinium uliginosum. Rhododendron lapponi- 

 cum. Campanula rotundifolia, Oxyria digyna, Salix arctica, 

 Luzula confusa, Carex nardina, Poa glauca, P. pratensis, P. 

 cenisia, Festuca ovina, Cystopteris fragilis and Woodsia ilvensis.
