1898-1902. No. 16.] FLOW.PLANTS AND FERNS OF N.-W. GREENLAND, 73 
The scurvy grass was rather common in Foulke Fjord and somewhat 
variable in size and manner of growth, according to the different kinds 
of localities where it was found, as was also the case in Ellesmereland: 
but all specimens were referable to the above-mentioned variety. As the 
case has been the same with all specimens that I have seen from North- 
ern Greenland and the northern islands of the American Archipelago, 
I do not hesitate to refer to it all records of Cochlearia from our area, 
even when the author has used another specific or variety name.

At Foulke Fjord the poppy was extremely abundant, especially around 
the old settlements and in the rookeries. In such places it would form 
large tufts having twenty, thirty, or more flowering or fruiting stems. 
In other situations the plants would be smaller, but I did not there see 
any that might by right be referred to the var. Hartianum, Sma. Prob- 
ably, however, this is the variety of which Mrgnan speaks as being 
found on Wolstenholme Island and at M’Cormick Bay. Perhaps also 
the white-flowered form from the tableland at Ivsugigsok, which Navr- 
HoRsT mentions, may belong to this variety. The colour of the petals 
varied in the usual manner, the sulphureous being the most common, 
but saffron and almost pure whithe flowers were also to be found. Forms 
with more or less lacerated petals were also met with.
