Habit. At Nordlanden this plant occurs on exposed coasts within the sublitoral 

 zone, attached partly to various species of Laminaria, partly to stones or shells. It 

 is known here only as sterile, probably on account of its being observed only during 

 summer. Its propagative organs are probably developed in winter and early spring 

 here as well as farther southwards. It grows scattered, in small numbers at each place. 



Geogr. Distrib. It. is known from the Norwegian Polar Sea and Baffin Bay. As 

 no exact localities have been recorded by others and I have never met with it myself 

 within the Polar Sea, I cannot fix its northern limit. I have not found it on the coast 

 of Finmarken. 



Localities: The Norwegian Polar Sea: Nordlanden, rather rare according to Wah- 

 LENBERG (1. c), common according to Kleen. 



Baffin Bay: according to a small specimen in the collections of the Botanical 

 Museum at Copenhagen. The exact locality is not stated.

Habitat. This species occurs in the lower parts of the sublitoral zone at a depth 

 of 5—20 fathoms. It prefers pebbly and stony or shelly bottom, but it is usually
