 Camps IX to X, 5500 to 6700 ft. 



A most curious species and quite unlike any other in its small round coriaceous leaves, 

 drying fuscous above and dotted all over beneath with very small black hairs on the 

 junctions of the reticulations. The two very distinct series of sepals, the inner ones 

 narrow and ornamented with a mass of long stiff pink bristles projecting beyond the tip 

 of tlie sepal, and the connate petals falling off the flower with the stamens attached, are 

 also unique in this genus.

 Canoe Camp, 150 ft. ; Camp VI a, 3100 ft.

 the sepals hairy with flattened seta?, and the petals are not rounded at the top but 

 bilobed.
