1398—1902. No. 16.] FLOW. PLANTS AND FERNS OF N..W. GREENLAND. 71 
have been previously overlooked or confounded with other species. For 
my own part, I found very little of it. 
Occurrence. S, Cape York (Stein); [vsugigsok (NatHorst); North- 
umberland Island in Inglefield Gulf (Stem); Foulke Fjord (4199). 
Draba hirta, L. 
D. hirta, Stwmons, Fl. Ellesm. [D. hirta, Drcxis, Not. fl. pl. in 
INGLEFIELD, Summer Search; Meeuan, Contr. Greenl.; D. rupestris, Dur- 
anp, Pl. Kan. et Enum. pl. Smith S.; Hart, Bot. Br. Pol. Exp.; D. arc- 
tica, Natuorst, N. W. Grénl.]. 
This species also is so confounded with others by the authors, that 
it is very difficult to give any detailed statements about its occurrence 
within the area. It may, however, be taken to be fairly common. My 
specimens and those of Natuorst belong to the variety arctica, (J. 
VauHL) Wats. 
Occurrence. S. Ivsugigsok (NatHorst); Inglefield Gulf: Burdin 
Bay (Incuerretp), Nunatak in Verhoeff Glacier (MeeHay), Netlik (Hayes); 
Foulke Fjord, Etah (MeeHan, 220, 1496); Rensselaer Harbour (Kane). 
N. Polaris Bay (Hart). 
Draba incana, L. 
D. incana, Linnazus, Sp. Plant. 1753; Gevert, Not. Arct. Pl; 
Lance, Consp. Fl. Groenl.; Kruuse, List Angmags. ; Wertuerit, List

Fig. Fl. Dan. T. 130. 
Although this plant is not spread north of 70° in Danish Greenland, 
there is still not sufficient cause for any doubt of the statement of WerTH- 
ERILL, and therefore I enter it on his authority. ! 
Occurrence. S. Netiulumi in Inglefield Gulf (WerHeritt). 
Distribution: East Greenland up to 61°, West Greenland up to 
70°, Labrador, Canada, Western Arctic and Temperate America, Rocky 
Mountains, Unalaschka, Kamshatka, East Siberia, Altai, Himalayas, Cau- 
casus, Ural, Northern Russia, Scandinavia, mountains of Central Europe, 
Great Britain, Faeroes, Iceland. 
1 When I wrote my FI. Ellesm., 1 was not aware that Werneritt had recorded 
D. ineana from N. W. Greenland. Taken together with this statement, the re- 
cord of D. borealis from Grinnell Land becomes a little more probable as the 
latter name signifies one of the forms of D. incana. It may, however, be that 
both records ought to be in fact transferred to D. hirta.
