A survey of the Phytogeography of the Arctic American Archipelago 99 
Heiberg Island: Hyperite Point, Rens Fjord, and Big Island in Heureka Souud, 
ScHEi (ex S1MMON8, 1. c); Ellesmereland : extremely comnion, Hates, Hart, Greelt, 
Wetherill, Stein, Bat, Isachsen, Simmons; Bartlett (CH), Borden (ex Macohn 
App. Neptune), Wole and Goodsell (ex Rydberg, 1. c). 
Geographic area. Greenland, arctic parts and mountains to the south in 
North America, Asia, and Europé. 
HooPER observes about the purple Saxifrage »abundant everywhere that we 
landed, and always the first plant found in flower». and I think we may look upon 
it as the most decidedly arctic species of all, almost never lackmg even where the 
conditions are rather averse for any plantUfe. Therefore I feel fully justified m 
having here entered it for rather many localities where only »saxifrage» is recorded. 
No arctic traveller, I think, has not been able to recognize it.
