196 MEMOIRS OF THE NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN. 



"Wooded regions, at an altitvide of less than 1000 m. 

 Montana: Jocko Canon, 18S0, JVatsou. 



* Heuchera ciliata. 



Stems two or three from a woody caudex, about 5 dm. high, terete, 

 more or less brown, the lower portion, as well as the petioles, ciliate 

 with white hairs, the upper portion finely and densely glandular- 

 puberulent ; leaves rounded-reniform, 3-4 cm. in diameter, slightly 

 5-7-lobed and rounded-crenate, glabrous above, sparingl}- hairy be- 

 neath ;~ inflorescence a narrow panicle; cup cylindrical-campanu- 

 late, greenish, densely and finely glandular-puberulent, decidedly 

 oblique and strongly gibbous at the base below, 6-8 mm. long ; 

 petals narrowly spatulate with a long claw, a little exceeding the 

 oblong sepals, glandular-puberulent ; stamens slightly exserted ; 

 seeds almost black, strongly hispid-muriculate. 



Nearest related to Heuchera hispida, but the flowers are smaller, 

 more glandular-puberulent, and more gibbous, and the leaves have 

 more rounded teeth. It grows in crevices of rocks, at an altitude of 

 2000 m. 



Montana: Mill Creek, 1887, Tzcecdy, jjq. 



* Heuchera grossulariifolia. 



Cespitose, with a woodv caudex; leaves all basal, numerous, the 

 petioles 2-5 cm. long, very slender : blade rounded, heart-shaped, 

 more or less deeply 5-cleft and crenate, 1-2 cm. in diameter, rather 

 firm and shining, glabrous, except the ciliate margins, each rounded 

 tooth tipped with a short bristle ; stem naked, 2-4 dm. high, lower 

 part glabrous, the upper portion finely glandular-puberulent; raceme 

 simple ; flowers on very short pedicels less than 2 mm. long ; cup 

 bell-shaped, 3-5 mm. long, vellowish, finely glandular-puberulent, 

 slightly oblique ; petals spatulate, slightly clawed, a little exceeding 

 the sepals, white or pinkish ; seeds oblong, brow-n, hispid-muricate 

 under a lens. 



It is somewhat intermediate between U. Hall ii ?ind H. parvifolia, 

 but differs from both in the glabrate leaves and the bristle-tipped 

 teeth ; from the former also by the taller stem and the smaller 

 flowers, and from the latter by the simpler raceme, the larger 

 flowers, the campanulate cup, which is yellower, and the smaller 

 leaves. //. grossulariifolia grows on rocky hillsides, at an altitude 

 of about 2000 m.
