MEMOIRS FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF BOTANY OF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 199 
Basal leaves with petioles 2-10 em. long, pinnate, sometimes interruptedly so; leaflets 5 
or 4 pairs, sparingly hairy, nearly glabrous on the upper surface ; leaflets obovate, gener- 
ally obtuse, simply or doubly serrate with broad teeth, the upper generally a little larger, 
1-3 cm. long. Stem leaves smaller, short-petioled, 1-3 paired. Flowers in an open many- 
flowered eyme, 10-15 mm. in diameter. Hypanthium glandular-hirsute; bractlets linear- 
lanceolate, much shorter than the oblong or oyate-lanceolate, gradually acuminate, acute 
sepals, which in fruit are about 1 em. long. Petals obovate, about equalling the sepals. 
Resembles D. ghutinosa in the open many-flowered cyme and general habit, but is a 
much more slender plant. It resembles D. fissa in the leaves, the long sepals and the 
shorter glandular pubescence, which is sometimes rather sparse. It differs from both by 
its petals, which are obovate, flat and about equal the sepals. Next to D. arguta, it is the 
most common and has the widest range of the genus. It extends from British Columbia 
and Alberta to the Black Hills of South Dakota and the foothills of New Mexico and 
California. 
Suksdorf has collected a plant in West Klickitat Co., Wash., which agrees perfectly 
with D. glandulosa, except that the petals are very small, obovate-spatulate and white, 
and the sepals approach those of D. Wrangelliana in form.

More slender than the type; stem leaves reduced in size; leaflets smaller; stem more 
finely and densely pubescent upward ; cyme more contracted and few-flowered, and sta- 
mens often only 20. 
I regard this as a mountain variety of D. glandulosa rather than a distinct species. It
