As may be seen in the above special synonymic, this species is 
entered in the different lists under quite a series of more or less appro- 
priate names. I have already spoken about the P. alpina of several 
authors. 
Doubtless P. cenisia is quite as common in different kinds of lo- 
calities within our present area as in Ellesmereland, at least such was 
the case at Foulke Fjord. 
Occurrence. S. Bushnan Island (SurHERLAND); Cape York (Hart); 
Ivsugigsok (NaTHorst); Wolstenholme Sound (IneterteLp); Inglefield 
Gulf: Northumberland Island (Stem), M’Cormick Bay (Meewan), Cape 
Acland (Wetueritt); Foulke Fjord (Hart), at Port Foulke (Hayes), Etah 
(Stein, 1477) and Reindeer Point (233, 1528); Rensselaer Bay (Kane). 
N. Bessels Bay, Hannah Island, Cape Morton (Hart); Hall Land (Bzs- 
sELs); Polaris Bay (Hart). 
Poa pratensis, L, 
Hart, Bot. Br. Pol. Exp., p. 40, records this species also from Foulke 
Fjord. Now indeed, as it grows in Ellesmereland even in the Hayes 
Sound district, it is not at all impossible that it may be found also in 
the neighbouring parts of Greenland; but, on the other hand, I have 
not, so far as my notes show, seen any specimens from those regions 
in the London collections, and this, together with its great likeness to 
P. cenisia, makes it more probable that Harr had the latter in view. 
The more so, as no other collector has found it in that comparatively 
well-explored place. I therefore think it better not to give it any place 
as a member of the N. W. Greenland flora until more reliable evidence 
is procured.

Ivsugigsok, where NatTHorst found it in 1883 (N. W. Grénl.), still 
stands as the only locality in N. W. Greenland of this beautiful and 
interesting grass. It is not, however, improbable that it was seen in 
Foulke Fjord during our second visit there. Mr. Bay, the zoologist of
