apex rounded, obtuse, or acute. Involueral bracts gener- 

 ally longer than the peduncles. Calyx teeth oval, blunt, 

 somewhat distant from the corolla-tube. Capsule half the 

 length of the calyx. Flowers rosy. 



F. admontensi^, a plant found by Gusmus sparingly at 

 Admont, in Styria, among P. clusiana, differs from the 

 latter only in the leaves being toothed from the middle 

 upwards — the teeth small, distant, blunt, fourteen or six- 

 teen on a leaf. Widmer regards this plant as arising from 

 the repeated crossing of some clusiana hybrid with P. 

 cludana, and thinks that clusiana hybrid may be either 

 P. auricula X clusiana, P. clusiana x villosa, or P. clusiana 

 X minima. P. Chtt-rchillii seems to be much the same 

 plant. 



7. P. WL'LFENIANA, Schott. — Occurs on limestone, on the 

 Alps of Venetia, Carinthia, and Caruiola. Leaves very 

 stiff, dark blue-green, not punctate, with broad, whitish, 

 cartilaginous margin, glaucescent, elliptic or oblong, with 

 acute apex, glabrous ; their margin, as also the calyx, beset 

 with minute glandular hairs. Involueral bracts generally 

 longer than the peduncles ; teeth of the long calyx obtuse, 

 and adpressed to tube of corolla ; capsule shorter than 

 calyx ; flowers rosy lilac. 



8. P. SPECTABiLis, Tratt. — On limestone, Alps of Bergamo 

 and of the Southern Tyrol. Leaves pellucid-punctate, with 

 broad cartilaginous border, viscid. Flowers rosy red, 

 passing into violet ; throat whitish. Easily identified by 

 the pitted, sticky leaves. 



9. P. INTEGRIFOLIA, L. — Pyrenees, Switzerland, Tyrol. 

 Not in Dauphiny, Savoy, or Piedmont. Leaves soft, bright- 

 green, shining, without cartilaginous margin, very entire, 

 elliptic or oblong, somewhat viscid, sparsely covered with 

 long, glandular, articulate hairs. Calyx teeth obtuse or 

 rounded ; involueral bracts rarely reaching the top of the 

 calyx; capsule shorter than the calyx. Flowers dark rosy- 

 lilac ; throat of the same colour. 



10. P. KITAIBELIANA, Shott. — Found in Croatia, on lime- 

 stone ; Servia ; Herzegowina. Leaves somewhat glaucescent, 

 fragrant, vnthout cartilaginous horder, large, elliptic-oval or
