1-3 oblong leaves: involucre 8-10 mm. high, with the bracts lanceolate 
or with the outer foliaceous and elongate.— QuEBEc: alluvium of the 
St. John (or Douglastown) River, Gaspé County, August 23, 1904, 
Collins, Fernald & Pease (Tyre in Gray Herb.); alluvial thickets and 
woods near the mouth of Dartmouth River, Gaspé County, August

Gaspé County, July 29, 1905, Williams, Collins & Fernald (transi- 
tional to var. frondeus). 
Resembling var. frondeus but differing in its more serrate leaves 
and in the much more spreading or arching branches and pedicels. 
A. FOLIACEUS, var. crenifolius, n. var., caule 2.5-3.5 dm. alto; foliis 
crassis ellipticis basi apiceque angustatis subobtusis crenatis subtus 
pilosis, mediis 4.5-8 em. longis 1.7-2.5 cm. latis; ramis pedicellisque 
subadscendentibus; pedicellis 1-3 cm. longis monocephalis foliis ob- 
longis crenatis instructis; involucro 8-10 mm. alto, bracteis exteri- 
oribus foliaceis oblongis. 
Stem 2.5-3.5 dm. high; leaves thick, elliptic, narrowed to base and 
apex, bluntish, crenate, pilose beneath; the median 4.5-8 cm. long, 
1.7-2.5 em. wide: branches and pedicels subascending; pedicels 1-3 
em. long, monocephalous, provided with oblong crenate leaves: in- 
volucre 8-10 mm. high, with the outer foliaceous bracts oblong.— 
QuEBEC: recent clearing near the mouth of Grand River, Gaspé 
County, August 11-15, 1904, Collins, Fernald & Pease (TYPE in Gray 
Herb.). 
In habit somewhat intermediate between the typical form of the 
species and var. arcuans; differing from both in the very crenate leaves 
and the uniform leafiness of the pedicels. 
A. FOLIACEUS, var. subpetiolatus, n. var., caule 3-7 dm. alto glabro 
vel piloso; foliis patentibus vel subadscendentibus subcoriaciis glabris 
anguste rhomboideo-ovatis longe acuminatis basi angustatis remote 
serratis vel subintegris, mediis late subpetiolatis 1-1.5 dm. longis 2-4 
em. latis; ramis subadscendentibus; pedicellis plerumque 1.5-4 cm. 
longis monocephalis efoliatis vel apice cum foliis elongatis acuminatis 
instructis; involuero 8-10 mm. alto, bracteis lanceolato-attenuatis 
exterioribus plus minusve foliaceis. 
Stem 3-7 dm. high, glabrous or pilose: leaves spreading or some- 
what ascending, subcoriaceous, glabrous, narrowly rhombic-ovate, 
long-acuminate, narrowed at base, remotely serrate or subentire; the 
median broadly subpetioled, 1-1.5 dm. long, 2-4 em. wide: branches 
subascending: pedicels mostly 1.5-4 em. long, monocephalous, leaf- 
less or with elongate acuminate leaves at apex: involucre 8-10 mm. 
high, with lance-attenuate bracts, the outer more or less leafy.—

11-15, 1904, Collins, Fernald & Pease (rype in Gray Herb.); calca-
