about 12-14 mm. long, very oblique ; lower sepals lanceolate or 
oblong, acute, 7-10 mm. long. 
This is closely related to the preceding, but differs in the 
broader and less deeply divided divisions of the leaves, the shorter 
lower sepals, the more open and less leafy inflorescence, and the 
more oblique lateral sepals. It grows at an altitude of 2400- 
2800 m.

’ Aconitum glaberrimum 
Perennial with a tap root: stem almost 1 m. high, perfectly 
glabrous: leaves 5-divided, thin, perfectly glabrous, the lower long- 
petioled ; the uppermost subsessile ; divisions oblanceolate to 
rhombic-oblanceolate in outline, 5—10 cm. long, cuneate and entire 
at the base, irregularly doubly cleft above ; lobes or teeth lanceo- 
late, acute or acuminate : inflorescence compound ; branches and 
pedicels spreading or divergent, glabrous: flowers blue: lower 
sepals lanceolate, 12~1 5 mm. long; lateral ones very oblique, as 
broad as long, about 1 5 mm. each way, rounded, slightly reniform 
on the upper side ; hood about 2 cm. long, deeply saccate, elong- 
ated helmet-shaped ; beak long-attenuate, very porrect or even 
ascending. 
The type specimen was included in A. Columbianum by Dr. 
Gray, his ‘Syn. Fl. N. Amer.’”’ label being on the sheet ; but it 
's so unlike all other material of that species that I can not see 
the reason why it should be included therein. The perfectly 
glabrous stem, the branched inflorescence, the peculiar, deeply 
Saceate hood and the slender porrect beak are characters not found 
in any other American aconite. _
