Hab. Behring's Straits. Mr. Menzies, Alpine rivulets of the Rocky Mountains, between latitudes 52° 

 and 5G°. Drummond. Kotzcbue's Sound. Lay and Collie in Capt. Beechcy's Voyage. — The broadly cuneate, 

 or rather flabelliform outline of the foliage of S. Dahurica is very remarkable. Our specimens exactly corres- 

 pond with Pallas' figure, and equally with that of Sternberg above quoted. We possess specimens from 

 Chamisso which he gathered in the Bay of St. Lawrence.

 and at the Portage, near the source of the Columbia. Drummond. /3. Dundas Island, in Queen Charlotte's 

 Sound; North -West coast of America. Dr. Scouler. — The specimens gathered by Mr. Drummond on the 

 Rocky Mountains are in a very advanced and imperfect state; but seeds which he brought to Europe have 

 flourished in the Botanic Gardens of Edinburgh and Gla^ow, and from the former the specimens were 

 derived which Tiere figured in the Botanical Magazine.

Hab. Labrador. Kohlmeister. Dr, Morrison, Also in Canada, according to Pursh. — We consider it 

 doubtful if the true Saxifraga stellaris has been found any where in North America, except at Labrador. 

 From Canada we have never seen specimens, though stated to have been found there by Kohlmeister,
