Very common in brush-wood on islets in tlie rivers Yenisei and Abakan, where I 

 have collected flowerless specimens in the month of June. I have also observed tliis 

 vei-y characteristic plant near Kushabar, with young flower-buds in the middle of July. 

 It is, besides, rather frequent in the Urjankai country: near Ust Algiac, at Ust Sisti-kem, 

 Ust Kamsara, and about Ust Tara-kem, where collected by me in full flower and w illi ripe 

 fruits in the second half of July and in August. All of the specimens collected have the 

 under sides of tlie leaves densely hairy, and, accordingly, belong to /. pubescens Ledeb.
