This species always grows in the uppermost part of the 

 litoral zone, at high-water mark, or sometimes even a little 

 higher up. At East-Finmarken it appears scattered, or per- 

 haps more often gregarious in a number of individuals, though 

 never in so large number as farther south. Specimens with 

 receptacles have been collected, in July and August. 



Distribution: Scattered and scarce at Svserholt, Kjolle- 

 fjord, Mehavn, Berlevaag and Syltefjord; Vardo, pretty plenti- 

 ful but local.
