  describes 
  C. 
  epigejos 
  from 
  Lapland 
  and 
  Norway, 
  which 
  

   he 
  took 
  to 
  be 
  the 
  plant 
  named 
  so 
  by 
  Lsestad 
  ; 
  according 
  to 
  

   Andersson 
  the 
  species 
  described 
  by 
  Fries 
  is, 
  however, 
  a 
  

   different 
  plant, 
  known 
  now 
  as 
  C. 
  discolor 
  Nyl. 
  (Spicileg. 
  

   Fl. 
  Fenn. 
  III. 
  p. 
  12). 
  Finally 
  in 
  his 
  Summa 
  vegetabi- 
  

   liuni 
  8 
  Fries 
  describes 
  C. 
  halophila 
  Nyl., 
  C. 
  salina 
  Wah- 
  

   lenb., 
  C. 
  subspathacea 
  (Fl.

  1530) 
  C. 
  Lyngbyei 
  

   Horn., 
  and 
  C. 
  cryptocarpa 
  C. 
  A.

  as 
  distinct 
  species. 
  

  

  "While 
  referring 
  C. 
  cuspidata, 
  C. 
  hcematolepis 
  (non 
  

   Drej.) 
  and 
  C. 
  mutica 
  to 
  the 
  one 
  species 
  salina 
  Wahlenb., 
  

   Andersson 
  9 
  admits 
  that 
  these 
  with 
  respect 
  to 
  habit 
  and 
  

   certain 
  characters 
  are 
  just 
  as 
  well 
  distinct 
  as 
  a 
  nnmber 
  

   of 
  others, 
  e. 
  g. 
  C. 
  digitata 
  and 
  omithopoda, 
  C. 
  limosa 
  

   and 
  irrigua, 
  C. 
  ericetorum 
  and 
  prcecox 
  etc. 
  Further- 
  

   more 
  Andersson 
  states, 
  that 
  Lindeberg 
  presented 
  him 
  

   with 
  a 
  large 
  collection 
  of 
  these 
  forms 
  gathered 
  almost 
  

   at 
  a 
  single 
  station 
  (the 
  island 
  Hisingen 
  near 
  Gotheborg), 
  

   beside 
  that 
  Blytt 
  brought 
  together 
  a 
  similar 
  collection 
  

   of 
  forms 
  from 
  Christiania. 
  

  

  As 
  specifically 
  distinct 
  from 
  C. 
  salina 
  the 
  author 
  enu- 
  

   merates 
  C. 
  subspathacea 
  Wormskj., 
  C. 
  discolor 
  Nyl., 
  C. 
  

   Lyngbyei 
  Horn., 
  C.

  Mey., 
  and 
  C. 
  halo- 
  

   phila 
  Nyl. 
  In 
  other 
  words 
  Andersson 
  adopts 
  principally 
  

   the 
  same 
  classification 
  as 
  proposed 
  by 
  Fries. 
  With 
  re- 
  

   gard 
  to 
  C. 
  hcematolepis 
  cited 
  by 
  the 
  author 
  his 
  diagnosis 
  

   and 
  figure 
  (PL 
  II.

  show 
  plainly 
  enough 
  that 
  the 
  

   plant 
  is

   enumerates 
  the 
  various 
  species 
  proposed 
  by 
  Drejer, 
  hold- 
  

   ing 
  the 
  same 
  view 
  as 
  Fries 
  that 
  C.

  C. 
  

   hcematolepis 
  (vera) 
  are 
  specifically 
  distinct 
  from

  adopts 
  the

  pro-
