12 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OP CANADA.

Pulsatilla patens, Gray. Lawson, Ranunc. Can., 22. 



Abundant on dry gravelly soil from the eastern margin of the 

 prairie region through the Eocky Mountains, and westward to the 

 Coast Eanges. It ranges northward beyond the Ai-ctic Circle, and 

 northwesterly into Alaska. (Rothr. Alask.) 



(6.) A. OCCidentaliS, Watson. Western Anemone. 



A. alp'ma, Hook, Fl. I., 5.

(8.) A. Baldensis, Hook. 



Arid places on the eastern summits of the Rocky Mountains, Lat. 

 52-55. (Drummond.) Watson in his Index to American Botany 

 gives this as a synonym of A. multiftda, which, however, is scarcely 

 probable. I found a species which I took to be this on Mount Selwyn, 

 in the Peace River Pass, Lat. 56, but the specimens were lost.
