Tliis species was formerly referred to A. jAantaginifolia (L.) Hook, of the Eastern States. 



13. Antennaria concolor sp. nov. 



Ccspitosc, the ligneous rootstocks and stolons slender; stems slender, erect, 20 to .30 

 cm. high, sparsely tomentose; ba.sal leaves thin, spatulate, 2.5 to 3.5 cm. long, whitish, 

 abruptly acuminate, concave on the lateral margins, the greener upper side becoming nearly 

 glabrous the second season; cauline 7 to 9, linear or linear-lanceolate; inflorescence of 4 to 

 7 short-peduncled heads in a corymb; involucre 8 to 9 mm. higli; bracts in about 3 ranks, 

 mostly acute, greenish below, fuscous in the middle, the tips paler or white. 



Type specimens collected by the writer in open places in fir woods near the siiburl) of 

 Portland, Oreg., known as Mount Scott, June 6, 1904, no. 6189. A few colonies only were 

 found, all pistillate. 



The species is perhaps nearest to A. howellii Greene, which was abundant in the same 

 locality, but that has larger and thicker leaves, nearly always smooth and green above with 

 the lateral margins nearly straight and with the heads usually sessile. 



I would also refer to this species no. 485, G. R. Vasey, collected m the Cascade Mountains, 

 probably near Ellensburg, Wash., in 1889. This was referred doubtfully by Nelson ^Pro- 

 ceedings U. S. National Museum 33:713) to A. pedicellata Greene, but that has a glandular 

 inflorescence. The Vasey specimen difl^ers from the type of A. concolor only m that the 

 stems are somewhat stouter, the leaves thicker and less suddenly narrowed into the petiole 

 and the heads shorter-pedicelled.
