Fig. 3—6. Anemones. 



The genus Anemone belongs to the fa- 

 mily of the Crowfoots (Ranunculaceae). It 

 is distinguished from Ranunculus by the 

 Single envelope of its tiuwer : One sees no 

 green calyx but only a bright-coloured en- 

 velope (which how«ver probably corresponds 

 not to the coroila but to tue calyx of the 

 Ranunculaceae). 



Fig. 3. Alpine Anemone. Flower in- 

 teriorly white, exteriorly especially in the 

 bud tinged with blue. Fruit forming a 

 globular wig: „Gremsbart" or „Boclisbart" 

 (Chamois' beard). The numerous Single fruits 

 have tail-lilte appendices formed by the 

 pinnated styles ; these facilitate the propa- 

 gation of the fruits by means of the wind. 



On pastures, belts ot turf, grassy stony 

 slopes, from 1200—2800 m., especially on 

 challs.
