Salix glauca, L. 
This species was first reported by Kane, but Duranp has excluded 
it from the list in Pl. Kan. It has been recorded later by WeTHERILL, 
whose statements I have, however, thought best to refer to S. arctica, 
as may be seen above; and lastly there is the statement from North- 
umberland Island in Mr. Houm’s list of the Stein plants. Of course it 
cannot be denied, that S. glauca, a common plant throughout Danish 
Greenland, might very well have found its way to the north-western 
parts of the country; but still, I think it safer not to give it a place in 
the list as an indisputable citizen of the region as long as I have not 
myself seen specimens, especially as I have, as already stated, good 
reason to think that Mr. Hotm’s opinion about the different members of 
the form-series of S. arctica is not the same as mine.

Kane was the first to report this species from North-Western Green- 
land (I Grinnell Exp. I, p. 143), but as he seems not to have collected 
it from the single locality whence he mentions it, it did not come into 
Duranp’s list in Pl. Kan.; or he may have mistaken small individuals 
of S. arctica for it, as may easily be done (cf. Simmons, Fl. Ellesm.,
