erie L. alpina has been found by me at the following sta-

es a very doubtful if this is a variety of D. g/acialis. The more 
ed habit, the more flattened, more hairy and few- (4-6) seeded 
we may well give it the rank of a species. Under all circum- 
RN the name densifolia is much older than Watson’s name and 
a fe be suppressed. Mr. Flodman’s specimens from the 
| Mountains, Aug. 10, 1895, no. 499, are nearly identi- 
with Nuttall’s type in the Torrey herbarium. It was also col-

This has been merged into D. g/acialis, and yet has still more

fruiting stem, much smaller leaves, and a pod that is not half the 
Size and with only 2-4 seeds. It was collected growing with the
