Our investigations at different seasons, both in coastal waters and in the North Atlantic, have shown us that the flora of each locality is constantly changing. One species succeeds another as month follows month, and different societies predominate in the same locality at different seasons. Along the west coast of Norway, for instance, we find a flora during the winter, from December to February, scanty in numbers, but consisting of many species, and mainly composed of true Atlantic forms (Styli-plankton), which reach their northern- most limits in the dark months of the year. About March or April the temperature attains its minimum, and great quantities.
