Hab. Barren places among the Rocky Mountains. Dmmmond. — This has the flowers equal in size with 

 those of E. compositusy /3., and the habit is very similar; but the leaves are almost the whole of them simply 

 trifid; a few of those at the base of the stem, or divisions of the stem, being compound.

Hab. Summits of the Rocky Mountains between lat. 52° and 56°. Drummond. — This is an extremely 

 beautiful species, most allied, indeed, to E. uniflornSf but differing in the dense woolly covering, large flowers, 

 long descending root, and in the scape, rather than a stem, which bears the flower. Corollas of the ray white, 

 or rarely purple.

 &c. Summits of the Rocky Mountains, Drummondy who found one large specimen in the woody region with 

 seven stems from the same root. — This is well distinguished from the preceding by its more glabrous foliage, 

 true stem, the leaves gradually becoming smaller upon it, smaller flowers, and much shorter ray. The invo- 

 lucre and its woolly clothing are, alike, generally purple. It is quite distinct from the E, uniflorus of Engl. 

 Bot. which I have reason to believe is only a single-flowered state of E. alpinus; nor have 1 ever seen tlje 

 true uniflorus in Britain,
