Abundantly flowering and fructificating, even specimens only 1 em 
high will flower. 
The habitats of the plant are richly covered by snow during winter. 
i 252. Pedicularis lapponica L. 
On heath and mossy bogs. Common or very common throughout 
our area, but never occurring in mineralic soil poor in humus. 
The distribution of this species in Greenland is remarkable: south 
of our area it is common to about 64” and only observed twice south 
of that latitude (Ros.). In East Greenland it is only known between 
69°25’ and 73°10’ (K.) The northern limit in West Greenland is still 
unknown, in the fjords at 72°23’ it was so commonly distributed that 
the northern limit hardly can be here. On the other hand the records 
from 76°—83° by Hart have proved to be erroneous (Simmons: Elles- 
mereland p. 34). 
In our area ranging to at least 600 m above the sea. 
Abundantly flowering, but very often no seeds are developed. 
Covered by thick layers of snow during winter. 
N 253. Pedicularis euphrasioides STEPH. 
On somewhat humid, luxuriant heath, exceptionally observed on 
a gravelly slope. 
[Disko: Stated from Diskofjord, without special mention of locality (Sor.). 
Here scarched for in vain through several years especially at the settlements visited 
in all probability by the Rev. Sorensen (Р.).] 
Mainland: Continually distributed from the South-East-Bay (the northern 
limit at 68°45’) at least to S. Stromfjord, 66°30’. This large occurrence borders on 
the inland ice and the species does not occur in the archipelago of Egedesminde 
(K., P. & E.). In the fjords, N. Stromfjord and N. Isortoq, the occurrence advances 
towards the mouth. 
A southern type the range of which in Greenland is very remark- 
able. Besides from the occurrence mentioned above it is known from 
the fjords about 64° and from an isolated finding at 6275" (Ros.). Not 
found in East Greenland. 
Very abundantly flowering and fructificating. 
Covered by thick layers of snow during winter. 
The species is perennial. 
| 254. Pedicularis flammea L. (Р. versicolor MEEHAN, not WAHL.). 
In mossy bogs and moist places in the heath. 
Very common throughout the whole area. 
Widely distributed in Greenland, without southern limit; the 
northern limit not known, but may be north of 74°.
