464 RYDBERG: STUDIES ON THE Rocky MOUNTAIN FLORA 
leaves oblanceolate; stem-leaves linear or linear-lanceolate, 
about 2 cm., acute; flowers 1-3 in the axils; pedicels 2-8 mm. 
long; calyx-tube about 2 mm. long; lobes linear-lanceolate, 3-5 
mm. long, acute, scabrous on the margins; corolla about 5 mm. 
long; lobes ovate, obtuse or acute; crown none. 
This little Amarella lacks the setaceous fimbriate crown at the 
base of the corolla-lobes and therefore should be classified with 
the arctic or subarctic A. propinqua (Richards.) Greene, and A. 
arctophila (Griseb.) Greene, but the corolla-lobes are acute or 
obtuse, instead of cuspidate.

Dasystephana obtusiloba Rydb. sp. nov. 
Cespitose perennial; stems erect or ascending, about 1 dm. 
high; internodes short, equaling or a little longer than the leaves; 
leaves very broadly ovate, 3-5-ribbed, usually acute at the apex 
and subcordate at the base; calyx-tube broadly turbinate, 5-6 
mm. long; lobes broadly oval, rounded at the apex, often over- 
lapping, about 8 mm. long; corolla dark blue, about 3.5 cm. long; 
lobes rounded at the apex; lobes of the plaits about half as long 
as the corolla lobes. 
This is related to D. calycosa, but differs in the lower habit and 
rounded corolla-lobes.
