2. Leptotaenia foliosa (Hook.) C. & R. 
Leptotaenia disseeta foliosa Wook. Lond. Jour. Bot. 6: 236, 1847. 
Acaulescent, 6 dm, high, glabrous and somewhat glaucous; leaves 
2 to 3 times ternate then pinnately compound, the ultimate segments 
linear and entire or cut into linear lobes, often obtuse, only slightly 
puberulent on midrib and margins; umbel 8 to 22-rayed, with an

involuere of several linear bracts, and involucels of few linear bract- 
lets; flowers yellow; sterile flowers on slender pedicels; fruit (imma-

Type locality, ‘‘fertile slopes of the mountains [Nez Perces, Idaho], 
near the snow line;” collected by Geyer, no. 517. 
Western Idaho. 
Specimens examined: 
Tpano: Nez Perces County, about Lake Waha, Sandberg 227, May 27, 1892.

We have not seen Geyer’s plant, but it came from the same locality as the material 
collected by Sandberg.
