Negrj, G., II Cerastiuni lineare All. (Malpighia. Anno XVIII. 

 1904. Fase. VI— IX. p. 367—379. tav. VlII.) 



Le Cerastium lineare est une espece reconnue par Allioni comme 

 parfaitement caracterisee et confondue depuis, par les auteurs posterieurs, 

 avec les C. arvense L., C. tomentosum L. et C. Boissieri Grenier. Une etude 

 soigneuse falte sur des echantillons tres abondants^ recoltes dans toutes 

 les stations oü l'espece a ete signalee, permet d'affirmer que le C. lineare 

 All., quoique assez proche du C tomentosum L., doit en etre detache 

 comme forme absolument independente. La distribution geographique est 

 aussi differente, le C. tomentosum L. etant une espece mediterraneenne 

 tandis que Faire du C. lineare All. ne s'etend pas hors du Piemont oü il 

 croit dans les paturages eleves des Alpes Cottiennes et Gräfes, entre 

 1500 et 2500 m. fleurissant en Juillet et en Aoüt. G. Negri
