Fig. 72.—Map showing the geographical distribution of the skunk- cabbage, Symplocarpus fcetidus. (After M. L. Fernald.) Point, Long Island, by Dr. William C. Braislin, in 1908. This is an arctic and sub-arctic bog plant, ranging from Labrador and Newfoundland to New Hampshire, British Columbia, and Alaska; also in Europe and Asia. It was found on the Peary arctic expedition as far north as Lat. 64° 15' north. Its discovery as noted above was unex- pected, and affords an interesting example of discontinuity of distribution. Another striking illustration is the "curly grass" fern {Schizcsa pusilla), of the Polypodiaceae, found in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, and in the pine barrens of southern New Jersey, but not known to occur between.
