6. Corydalis, Vent. Choix. 19 (1803). About 140 species ; type : 
C. sempervirens, Pers. (Fumaria sempervirens, Linn.). 
Distrisution.—North Temperate Zone ; see accompanying 
P 
A monograph* of Corydalis, and especially of the 
numerous Chinese species, is a desideratum. For the 
Oriental species, see Boissier, Fl. Or. i. 126-132 (1867); 
Indian species, Prain in Journ. As. Soc. Bengal, lxv. 
14-41 (1896) ; North American species, Asa Gray, Synop. 
Fil. N. Amer. i. 96 (1895).

NortHern Asta. Turkestan: Kashgar; Kuen-Lun Mts. 
northern slopes of Mt. Tahtahon, 3400 m., 19 July 1889

I have unfortunately not been able to see a specimen 
of this remarkable plant, which is described as being 
woody at the base, and the flower as solitary and scapose 
without bracts. It is, however, perhaps not distinguish- 
able generically from Corydalis, which shows considerable 
range in habit. Dr. Fedschenko makes no mention of this 
genus in his numerous papers on the flora of Turkestan.
