Anemone nnill/pda Poir. is a South American species, growing in 

 Patagonia and Terra del Fuego, differing from its North American 

 allies in the coarse hirsute pubescence. In the United States it is 

 represented bv two distinct forms, one northeastern, A. Hudsoniana 

 Richardson, and one from the Rocky Mountains, A. globosa. The 

 former has the small flowers of A. mulfijida and A. Tetonensis, dif- 

 fering from mnltipda mainly in the pubescence and from the latter 

 in the very narrow segments of the leaves. A. globosa differs from 

 all three in the large flowers, the sepals being often i cm. long or 

 more. The segments of the leaves are much broader than in A. 

 Hudsoniana and the pubescence looser, being often quite long silk}'- 

 villous. The type represents a specimen with a single long-pedun- 

 cled flower and less hairy leaves ; the same form is also represented 

 by Rydberg c(r Ressev, 40SJ and 40S6 : this form can not, how- 

 ever, be separated from the common one with several peduncles. A. 

 globosa varies in color from greenish or ^-ellowish white to dark 

 purplish red. It grows in valleys, at an altitude of 1500-3000 m.
