Summary
This article deals with some new findings
and observations of the vascular plants in
the Faeroes.
At first the botanical survey in 1960-61
of Kjeld Hansen (1964) and his collabora-
tors is mentioned, and the distribution
maps which were one of the results of this
work are discussed.
Then 24 species found at one or more
localities not mentioned in the distribution
maps are discussed. 15 of these species
were found at islands from where they
have not been reported before, and one
single species is new to the Faeroes (Her-
acleum pubescens).
The reason why it is relatively easy to
find species, that are not in accordance
with the distribution maps, is discussed. It
is supposed to be due partly to the investi-
gation method used in 1960-61, and partly
to the fact that Kjeld Hansen carried out
his investigations almost 30 years ago.
