444 SKETCH OF THE FLORA OF ALASKA. 



VIOLA CE-E, 



Viola Inflora, L., var, Sitchensis, Kegel; V. Canadensis, in Bongavd's Vegeta- 

 tion of Sitka, Avhere it is also cited as V. Scorebei, Dougl. The Sitkan plant 

 is certainly very variable ; one form is without doubt V. glabella, Nutt ; yet 

 after ciU'efully comparing a full suite of specimens I think Kegel has correctly 

 assigned it to V. biflora, L.
