A FASCICLE OF NEW ARNICAS. 165 
sessile, oval to ovate-lanceolate, 1 to 2 inches long, remotely 
and slightly serrate, both faces sparsely pubescent and more 
densely glandular, the minute glands only subsessile: pe- 
duncle finely villous and glandular: bracts of the involuere 
broadly lanceolate, acuminate, glandular-viscid and glan- 
dular-ciliolate: rays deep-yellow, 9-nerved: disk-corollas 
very narrow, with small distinction of tube and throat, only 
the lower portion and the teeth villous: achenes almost 
villous at summit, otherwise glabrous; pappus fine, white 
barbellulate. 
On grassy slopes of the mountains between St. Joseph’s 
River and the Clearwater, Idaho, 10 July, 1895, J. B. Lei- 
berg, n. 1229 of his collections, as represented in the U.S. 
Herbarium. In its foliage, both as to form, pubescence, 
and general bearing, this small Arnica recalls Teucrium 
Canadense, or Stachys aspera. 
A. SCABERRIMA. Stout stems 2 feet high, with only 2 
pairs of leaves over and above the small and bract-like ones 
subtending the several long naked stout peduncles: lowest 
leaves 6 inehes long, spatulate-oblanceolate, rather closely 
dentate, the upper pair as long and as saliently dentate but 
of oblong-lanceolate outline and sessile, both faces of all 
strongly scabrous: stem and peduncles rough with short 
stiff, mostly gland-tipped, hairs: involueres campanulate, 
their braets biserial, the outer somewhat oblanceolate, acute, 
hirsutulous: rays deep-yellow, not large in proportion to 
the heads; disk-corollas slender, only the short tube hirsute: 
achenes hirsute and with some sessile glands; pappus fus- 
cous, subplumose. 
One of the largest species, and the most robust of all; 
apparently peculiar to subalpine districts in the mountains 
of southern California.: The specimens seen by me are in 
the U. S. Herbarium; one by C. A. Purpus, from Little
