Thickets, along the Kaministiqua, twenty miles above Fort William; 

 rather common at Portage la Prairie and westward to Fort Ellice, in 

 the Assiniboine Valley ; rather uncommon on grassy slopes near the

(2658.) C. Saskatchewana, Boeckeler, Linnsea, XLL, 159, (1876.) 

 This species has been described from young specimens collected by 

 Douglas somewhere on the Saskatchewan. We have seen nothing to 

 tally with the description, and can make no suggestion regarding its 

 proper disposition. Bceckeier places it next to C vaginata, and Bailey 

 near C. debilis. Better specimens are much needed.

Var. Krausei, Krantz. (MSS.) 



C. Kramei, Bceckeier, Engler's Bot. Jahrb. VII., 279, (1886.) 



Dr. August Krantz, who has carefully examined the whole collec- 

 tions of Krause made in Alaska, writes me that Boeckeler's new species 

 is only an androgynous form of C. capillaris, and suggests the above 

 varietal name. Alaska. (Krause.)

C. mpina, Wahl. (1802) ; Hook., Fl. II., 225.

 thing like it. Bear Lake, and Rocl^ Mountains. (Hooker, Fl.)
