inability to find any trace of carpophore, either free or adherent, to the 

 carpels. — Denver, where in June it is quite common on the plains. 



Ligusticum montanum, Bentham & Hooker. (Thaspiumf montanum, 

 Gray.) — 1-2° high, often branched; leaves twice ternately divided; lobes 

 linear, linear-lanceolate, or lanceolate, 9-18" long; petioles 1-4' long, widely 

 dilated into a sheath toward the base ; fruit variable, oval or broadly oval, 

 marginal wings broader than the others, or sometimes the dorsal as much 

 dilated as the marginal ; vittse single or double in each interval ; involuci-e 

 none; involucels of 5-9 setaceous bracts, which are 2-4" long; flowers 

 bright yellow.— Central Colorado, reaching as high as 12,000 feet altitude 

 (716, 719, 720, 724), and in Arizona, at Willow Spring, at 7,195 feet 

 altitude (253). In the majority of cases in my specimens, one carpel has 

 entirely, or almost entirely aborted.
