var. Nathorstii Berlin 1. c. p. 20. 
On herby slopes; rare. 
15—40 ctm. high; with few flowers, the ground-leaves long- 
scaped, all leaves bi- or tripartite, the segments trilobate, the lobes 
linear with parallel edges. The segments of the lowest stem-leaf 
of 15t and 2"4 order often stalked and the lobes very long. The 
whole plant especially towards the top hispid; the hairs compressed 
and widely separated. Easily recognizable on account of the finely 
divided leaves; still, distinct forms of transition to the main species 
are found; some specimens taken late in autumn agree best with 
the description of Berlin.
