  Odin - Flora and fauna of Norway   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Norway's fauna and flora have been strongly influenced by the new incursions, but also by the fact that the climate is the prime factor in determining distribution patterns.
Norway has perhaps one of Europe's most variable climates, due to its proximity to the Atlantic and to its 2,500 km long coast, along a north-south axis.
In Norway, as in the rest of Europe, it is the seed ripening that deter-mines the limits of their distribution.

 Plant Talk Review of “Flora Nordica”   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
This very handsome volume is the first fruits of a co-operative scheme to publish a multi-volume critical Flora of the vascular plants of the Nordic Region, defined as Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, together with the Faroe Islands and the Arctic islands of Jan Meyen, Bear Island and Svalbard (Spitsbergen).
The Flora adopts the sequence of Flora Europaea, so that this first volume covers all the Pteridophyta and Gymnosperms, and begins the long succession of Angiosperm families up to and including the Polygonaceae.
Finally, the whole Flora is in English, a choice of language that will, in the words of Jonsell’s Preface, “make detailed knowledge of the Nordic flora internationally available”.
