The numerous forms figured of this species, common at Florissant, 

 shows the great variety of its leaflets. Though comparatively large, the 

 leaves of pi. xxxix, fig. 12, appear referable to it. The specimens, however, 

 may represent two specific forms, Avhich can be separated only when the 

 nervation is known.
