WOOTON AND STANDLEY FLORA OF NEW MEXICO. 483 



This form seems to us distinct enough to rank as a species. It certainly is much 

 more easily recognized than most of the species of the family. We have never seen 

 it occurring with the other species nor have we ever seen intergradient forms.

Apparently this is a very good species, distinguished from P. viontanus by its 

 tinted habit, much elongated, very narrow leaf segments, and pale flowers. It is 

 found in different situations, too, preferring crevices of cliffs in the deep canyons, 

 always growing in shade.

A very handsome plant, for the family, its leaves strongly suggesting some of the 

 ferns. It is distinguished from our other sp© ies by the very numerous leaves of 

 peculiar form and by the small umbels which usually but slightly exceed the lea\ es.
