A, recurva, as is evident from Dr. Greene's description of that species. It 
cannot be that species, however, for 4. scariosa is distinctly cespitose, much 
resembling A. africa in that respect, and its bracts (pistillate) are decidedly 
obtuse. Its leaves are also smaller and its stems taller.

ANTENNARIA PARVIFOLIA Nutt., Trans. Phil. Soc. 73408. <Anten- 
naria microphylla Rydb., Bull. Torr. Bot. Club. 24: 303.— This is our 
“ommonest Antennaria, met with everywhere in meadows on the high 
elevated plains of Wyoming. Its distinctive characters have been 
tlady pointed out by Dr. Greene. However, from an examination 
Xf our rather numerous specimens of this species, the following charac- 
SS are noticeable. The exceedingly small leaves are covered with a 
tense lustrous silvery tomentum, and the apices are triangular. The 
"veg bracts and the one or two uppermost cauline leaves are 
ms aah be glabrate, and somewhat viscid-glandular. The stems 
there Y covered with floccose wool. In none of our specimens is 
my trace of a pinkish tinge in the pistillate bracts. A dwarf 
ese ard ie a, broad truncate-obtuse staminate bracts, from 
ing are ie aah probably very nearly typical. The follow-
