Poa alpina var. vivipara, Grinnell Ld., Lady Franklin Bay, 
Greely, and 
Poa alpina, Nth. Side of St. Johns Sound, Н. Е. Wetherill. 
Now my father, Mr. Morten P. PorsırLp, who has seen the 
specimens of both collections in the Gray Herbarıum, Cambridge, 
Mass. tells me that the first represents a depauperate, viviparous 
culm without basal leaves. To him it seemed to be quite identical 
with my viviparous form of Poa pratensıs. 
The other specimens, subsequently to WETHERILL’s identifica- 
tion, have been referred by the staff of the Gray Herbarium to 
Poa laxa, but the specimens are probably badly developed forms 
of the polymorphus Poa glauca or of P. arctica, as already suggested 
by Simmons 1. с. 
P. arctica R. Br. — Not as common as the preceding. 
P. alpina L. — Upernavik Ejland, Kuk, Patorfik, Alianaitsünguaq, 
Ata, Pätüt, Atanikerdluk, Naujat and Sarqaq. Common when 
sufficient moisture and humus is available.

Р. glauca M. Vahl. — Common everywhere. | 
Puccinellia Vahliana (Liebm.) Scribn. & Merr. — Upernavik

lowland.

kerdluk.

Р. — var. vaginata (Lge.) Holmb. 
P. tenella (Lge.) Holmb. 
Р. arctica (Hook.) Fern. & Weath. 
(Of these 4 Puccinellia species I have several specimens, but, as Houm- 
BERG'S interpretation has not yet been published, I will not venture to 
identify them.) 
Festuca ovina L. — Common. 
Е. brevifolia В. Br. — eu 70°44", Patorfik and Qaer- 
suarssuk.
