Includes (p. 46-51) unannotated list headed “Die urspriinglichen arten 
Alands” (650 species of vascular plants), divided into trees and shrubs, grass- 
like plants, and herbs; Taraxacum and Hieracium are represented by only 
3 specific names. The author regards as “original species” only those which 
occur entirely independent of man or of his activity in modifying habitats; 
about 100 species which are neither cultivated nor ruderal or ballast plants 
are consequently omitted from the list. The same species names incor- 
porated into a single list and provided with botanical authorities are given 
(p. 21-28) in his Die einwanderungswege der flora nach den Alandsinseln.
