specimens of Fiiciis inflatiis, Fiiciis spiralis f. nana, Porphijra nmbili- 

 calis and Enteromorpha. 



At 4, the algal vegetation has also the character of algae be- 

 longing to somewhat exposed coasts. The shore was here rather 

 steep with almost flat rocks in front close to the water's edge; 

 here w^ere found Laminaria digitata, Alaria escnlenta with a sub- 

 growth of Corallina, Gigartina mamillosa, Chordaria flag elli for mis, 

 Scytosiphon lonientarins, Ceramium rnbrum, large specimens of Fuciis 

 inflatas with Elachista fucicola, Porphyra umbilicalis, Enteromorpha 

 intestinalis var. micrococca and Ectocarpus litoralis. At 5, the flora 

 has still almost the same character: here were found Laminaria

 menia palmata , Gigartina mamillosa, Ceraminm rubrnm, Dnmontia 

 filiformis, Acrosiphonia spec, (albescens?), Fncns inflatas (large) with 

 Elachista fucicola , Fucus spiralis (large) and Porphyra. Close by 

 the village of Sund there is a small and low mass of rocks (6). On its 

 eastern side, towards the mouth of the fjord, the following species 

 w^ere found: Laminaria digitata, Alaria escnlenta, Himanthalia, Rho- 

 dymenia palmata, Gigartina mamillosa and Ceraminm acanthonotnm, 

 Acrosiphonia, Fncns inflatas (large), Porphyra and Enteromorpha in- 

 estinalis, the principal vegetation thus resembling that of exposed 

 coasts; on the other hand, the western side of the rock, facing 

 landwards, was covered by the typical flora of sheltered coasts, 

 with Fncns vesiculosus at the top and next to that large luxuriant 

 masses of Ascophyllnm nodosum covering the almost horizontal sur- 

 faces from high water mark downwards. On the rock were found 

 several pools of different sizes filled with water, the bottoms covered 

 by Corallina officinalis, and Leathesia difformis was growing epiphy- 

 tically on the latter in great profusion. Monostroma fuscum, M. Gre-
