Novitates Boreali-Americanae. VII. 321 
but only pinkish. The type specimen a very good one, is on U, S. Herb. 
sheet 352653. 
58. Aquilegia eminens Greene, spec. nov. 
Herba procera, usque 6 dm alta, foliolis profunde 3-sectis, sinubus 
plus minusve anguste V-formibus, segmento terminali leviter 5-lobo, la- 
teralibus magis inaequaliter 4— 5-lobis, lobis omnibus obtusis, planta 
undique glabra. Flores numerosi, pro planta parvi, 3,5 cm longi, 2,5 em 
lati coccinei, sepalis ovato-ellipticis acutis, modice expansis; petalorum 
limbo brevi subtruncato breviter cuspidato. Fructus ignotus. 
Fine specimens are in U. S. Herb. sheet no. 670017, collected at 
Fort Snelling, Minnesota, 23 May, 1891. As readily distinguished 
from A. Canadensis as possible by its large dimensions, small and broad 
flowers, as well as by its own peculiar cut of foliage. It is likely to, 
be found the common species in regions west of the upper Mississippi. 
59. Aconitum macilentum Greene, spec. nov. 
Radix parva, tuberiformis, ovata, fibras tenues nigricantes emittens, 
Caulis unieus tenuis erectus simplex, 3—5 dm altus, foliis paucis bre- 
viter petiolatis instructus, apicem versus, una cum florum pedicellis, 
pilis virentibus molliter hirtellus. Folia utrinque glabra, profunde, sub- 
digitatimque 5-lobata, lobis late lanceolatis, aut subintegris aut incise 
dentatis. Flores perpauci, tenuiter pedicellati; sepala anteriora oblongo- 
lanceolata; galea elongato, sacco brevi obtuso, rostro subulato, longius- 
culo, horizontaliter extenso, et cum petalis exterioribus piloso-ciliato. 
Minam National Forest, Oregon, 25 Aug. 1912, C. E. Fleming. 
The Species, though quite tall, is slender and delicate, the flower in 
Some specimens one only. 
460. Vancouveria crispa Greene, spec. nov. 
Folia bracteis fuscis suborbicularibus conspicue suffulta; foliola ri- 
gide coriacea, margine insigniter crispata, supra saturate viridia, subtus 
intense glauca. Scapus 1—2 dm altus, paniculatus. Flores adhue in- 
Visi. Capsula parvula, globosa, monosperma. : 
Such are the very remarkable characters of a species represented 
on U. S. Herb, sheet 466668, collected somewhere in Mendocino County, 
California, 3 August, 1902, by the late J. W. Congdon. Allied to 
V. parviflora, by its evergreen leaves, but these much more hard-lea- 
thery, and all leaflets conspicuously and strongly crisped despite their 
hard texture, and the fact that the whole margin in especially callous- 
thickened. One only of the several globose follicles has two seeds, in- 
Serted side by side, not one above the other. 
~ 61. Vancouveria Vaseyi Greene, spec. nov. 
Planta vix 2 dm alta. Folia coriacea, persistentia, supra glauco- 
virentia, subtus glauca; foliola terminalia 3 em longa, 3,5—4 cm lata, 
forum dimidia pars superior angularis, inferior rotundato-cordata; la- 
teralia 2,5—3 cm long. paulo latiora quam longiora, angulis carentia et 
Oblique cordiformia. Flores parvuli, in racemum simplicem dispositi; 
Ovarium breviter ovale, glabrum.
