NORTHEASTERN ASIA. Altai: type collected by A. Bunge (ex Traut- 
vetter); * Verchov. r. dscholo, pod Lednikom,” July 4, 1901, P. Krylov (c? and? 
flowers), without locality (ex Herb. Mus. Bot. Tomsk, fruiting specimen). Kamt- 
chatka: Kastalsky & Rieder (ex Herder). 
In Krylov’s specimen the c? flowers have two glands, and the bracts are covered 
with a fine silky pubescence somewhat like those of S. Myrsinites Linnaeus. The 
fruits are ovate, acute with a pedicel twice longer than the gland and about % 
shorter than the capsule. The serration of the leaves is very sharp and irregular.

INDIA. Kashmir: “ in humidis herbosis sub jugis versus Soognum,” alt. 4000

W. Hoffmeister (ex Andersson); Punjab: Kunawur, “ reg. alp., 15000 ped.,” T. 
Thomson (with fruits). 
Andersson describes several forms. I have only seen Thomson’s specimen and & 
photograph of Wallich’s No. 3698. Judging from Klotzsch and Garcke’s plate this 
species is nearly related to S. berberifolia Pallas, but the serration of the leaves 18 
much more like that of S. herbacea Linnaeus, the flowering forms of which from 
the Altai I mention on p. 143 seem to be not unlike some forms of S. .
