Simmons, Bemarks about the Belations of the Floras etc. 193 
points to tlie same conclusion, tliat a submergence in a very 
near period is probable, or that at least no emergence has lately 
taken place. 
As I have elsewhere discnssed the features of the marine 
tlora of the Faeroes compared with those of neighbonring 
shores, that speak for a landconnection in postglacial time, 
I shall not here repeat that discnssion. Furtlier research about 
the question of the ways and means of migration must be left 
to another occasion.
