Han. Hitherto found only on the mountain of Pillzum, Andes 
of El Equador, at an elevation of 12,000 feet above the level 
of the sea, Prof. W. Jameson (n. 86). : 
A new and very distinct species of Anemone, most allied 
perhaps to A. triternata 3 but differing from it in its much 
larger size, a span and more high, its petiolated involucral 
leaves, the few (five, not 10-12) sepals, their figure, and the 
short, globose, glabrous head of carpels, each tipped with a 
hooked, subulate style.
