. The algae-vegetation of the Faero?ese coasts, with remarks on the phyto-geography. Marine algae. 695 specimens of Fiiciis inflatiis, Fiiciis spiralis f. nana, Porphijra nmbili- calis and Enteromorpha. At 4, the algal vegetation has also the character of algae be- longing to somewhat exposed coasts. The shore was here rather steep with almost flat rocks in front close to the water's edge; here w^ere found Laminaria digitata, Alaria escnlenta with a sub- growth of Corallina, Gigartina mamillosa, Chordaria flag elli for mis, Scytosiphon lonientarins, Ceramium rnbrum, large specimens of Fuciis i

At 5, the flora has still almost the same character: here were found Laminaria. SUNOS HAGi Fig. 151. Sketch of KalbakFjord after the map of the generalstaff. digitata, L. saccharina, Alaria escnlenta, Himanthalia lorea, Rhody- menia palmata, Gigartina mamillosa, Ceraminm rubrnm, Dnmontia filiformis, Acrosiphonia spec, (albescens?), Fncns inflatas (large) with Elachista fucicola, Fucus spiralis (large) and Porphyra. Close by the village of Sund there is a small and low mass of rocks (6). On its eastern side, towards the mouth of the fjord, the following species w^ere found: Laminaria digitata, Alaria escnlenta, Himanthalia, Rho- dymenia palmata, Gigartina mamillosa and Ceraminm acanthonotnm, Acrosiphonia, Fncns inflatas (large), Porphyra and Enteromorpha in- estinalis, the principal vegetation thus resembling that of exposed coasts; on the other hand, the western side of the rock, facing landwards, was covered by the typical flora of sheltered coasts, with Fncns vesiculosus at the top and next to that large luxuriant masses of Ascophyllnm nodosum covering the almost horizontal sur- faces from high water mark downwards. On the rock were found several pools of different sizes filled with water, the bottoms covered by Corallina officinalis, and Leathesia diffor
