Hieracitivi scatticum, Dahlst. — This species is 

 closely allied to I/, irng-tiufn, Fr., from which it 

 differs in the long white hairs of the stem, the

 rather thicker heads, narrower phyllaries, and 

 styles more ne.irly pure yellow.

 lance-shaped, toothed, wedge-shaped below, stiffly 

 h.iiry below, the margins fringed with hairs. The 

 2-5 stem-leaves are smaller above, lance-shaped, 

 rhomboid, acute, toothed. The p.anicle has the

 inner basal leaves. The p.inicle is a loose corymb, 

 the br.inchcs erect to spreading, in a raceme or 

 corymb. The heads are 3 to numerous, large, 

 rounded to egg -shaped. The flower-stalks are 

 woolly-felted, glandular, stiffly hairy. The phyl-

 egg-shaped, oblong, elliptic, toothed, rounded, 

 blunt below, the inner oval to lance-shaped, broad, 

 blunt, acute, narrowed to the stiffly hairy leaf- 

 stalk, finely toothed below. The 3-5 stem-leaves 

 arc like the inner basal, acute, hairless iibove, 

 hairy below and on the margins, which are purple. 

 The panicle is close, in a corymb, with 1-2 lower,
