1-2 feet higli. Cyme naked, many-flowerod, at lenjith expanded and ratlier 

 loose, for this penus; the flowers (whicli are larger than any other species 

 except H. Cidilornica) all distinctly |)cdicellate. The bracteolcs are usually 

 entire ; but \vc find them occasionally 'J-tooihed or even divided to the base, 

 affording a confirmation of the view, that these organs are the stipules of tlie 

 sepals united two and two. 



3. H. fusca (Lindl.) : viscous-pubescent; radical leaves 12— 19-foIiolate; 

 leaflets cuneate-oblong, i)innatifid or palmatifid and incised ; stijmles deei)ly 

 laciniate ; llowers crowded on tlie branches of the compound cyme ; bracts 

 palmatifid, much sliorter than the glomerules ; bracteolar calyx-segments 

 linear, shorter and much smaller than the triangular-lanceolate true ones; 

 petals cuncifonu-obcordate, nmch longer than the calyx. — Lindl.! but. reg. 

 t. 1997 ; Hook. 8^-Arn.! I. c. 



Interior of Oregon, J)«»:f/</i' / — Stem 2-3 feet high. Cymes many-flow- 

 ered. — The figure cited above does not well represent the outer calyx-seg- 

 ments, nor the dilated filaments of the native dried specimens. 



4. H. cunrota {hmW.): villous-pubescent ; radical leaves 15-25-foliolate ; 

 leaflets roundish-cuneili)rm, deeply incised ; stipules ovate-lanceolate, mostly 

 entire ; flowers subcapirate on the brandies of the cyme ; bracts 3-cleft, 

 shorter than the villous heads ; bracteolar calyx-segments lanceolate-ovate, 

 entire, about the length of tlie lanceolate-triangular true ones, shorter than 

 the obovate-oblong petals. — Lindl. ! I. c. subfol. 1197 ; Hook. S^' Arn. ! I. c.

 cidly villous ; radical leaves 9-13-foliolate ; leaflets short, roundisli, the up- 

 per ones cuneiform, incised ; stipules ovate-lanceolate, small, entire or 

 toothed ; flowers much crowded on the branches of the fastigiate cyme ; bracts 

 3-5-cleft, much shorter llian the glomerules; bracteolar calyx-seginents 

 linear-subulate, shorter than the narrowly triangular true ones ; petals spalu- 

 late, longer than the calyx. 



" Plains of the Oregon towards the Rocky Mountains, in bushy places : 

 common. July-Aug. — About a foot liigh. Root thick, fusifonn. Flowers

 cuneata. 



6. H. cajntata {TiimW.): somewhat glabrous ; stem viscous-pubescent to- 

 wards the summit; radical leaves about 13-foliolate ; leaflets laciniate-in- 

 cised, the lower ones roundish-cuneiform, the upper oblong and attenuate at 

 the base ; stipules entire or 3-part('d ; head of flowers dense, shorter tJian the 

 laciniate bracts ; bracteolar calyx-segments lanceolate-subulate, about the 

 length of the true ones, shorter than the broadly cuneiform petals. — Lindl. !

Cascade Mountains of the Oregon, Douglas! — Leaflets, as also the bracts,
