Achenes mostly oviform, never flattened, hairless. Style 

 more or less short, generally curved like a shepherd's crook 

 at the end. Either there exist no organs for the dispersion 

 of the seed (?), or the curved style serves to attach the 

 fruits to the hair of mammalia. These fruits being the 

 heaviest in this genus, the influence of the wind as a means 

 of dissemination is excluded. 



6. Pulsatitloides, DC.,t Syst., i. p. 195, 1818. 



Achenes elongated or oviform (1:4 or 1:5); style of 

 equal length or shorter. The pericarp is densely clothed 

 with stiflish, slanting hair, longer at the base of the style, 

 and shorter at the base of the fruit. By means of this hair 

 the fruit is dispersed by mammalia, and in the same degree 

 by the wind. 



7. Pulsatilla, Tourn.,| Hid., p. 248, Tab. cxlviii. 1700. 



Fruit small, generally inverted, oviform, style ten times 

 as long ; achene densely clothed with short hair ; style, on the 

 contrary, scattered long hairy. Dissemination through wind 

 by means of the hairy styles; the hair of the pericarp, on 

 the other hand, adhering to the hair of mammalia.
