  While

  I 
  have 
  been 
  unable 
  to 
  locate 
  any 
  definite 
  report 
  of 
  

   this 
  species

  Rydberg, 
  in 
  his 
  " 
  Flora 
  of 
  Montana," 
  

   reports 
  it 
  on 
  hearsay 
  but 
  gives 
  no 
  record 
  of 
  any 
  collection 
  or 
  

   collector. 
  It 
  seems 
  to 
  have 
  been 
  collected 
  only 
  in 
  the 
  mountainous 
  

   western 
  portion 
  of 
  the 
  state, 
  and 
  there 
  only 
  to 
  have 
  been 
  found 
  

   sparingly.

  it
