New Alpine Plants. 105 
trapezoid, trifid, or the upper ones cuneate, all in front deeply 
and acutely toothed, often laciniated; leaves of the stem 
from one to three, pinnatisected; rays of the umbel 4-5, 
unequal, furrowed, glabrous; bracts 1-3, bracteoles several, 
both setaceous; fruit glabrous, truncate-ovate, with very 
prominent ribs. 
On the gravelly borders of alpine rivulets and springs in 
the Munyang Mountains (5-6000’). 
The want of ripe fruit of this plant leaves some doubt 
about its true generic position. It is unquestionably allied 
to Seseli Harveyanum.

18. Erigeron conyzoides. 
Perennial, smooth, somewhat glabrous; stem erect, herba- 
ceous, leafy, below simple; lower leaves lanceolate, tri-nerved, 
tapering into a long petiole, remotely and sharply serrulate; 
upper ones broad-linear, acute, quite entire, sessile; flowér- 
heads panicled, hemispherical or campanulate; scales of the 
involucre linear—subulate, somewhat scabrous on the back; 
female flowers extremely narrow, whitish, flat, little longer 
than the disk; achenes compressed, oblong, scantily hairy, 
hardly half as long as the pappus.

to 5000 feet.) 
19. Trineuron nivigenum. 
Leaves linear, blunt, indistinctly three or five-nerved, on a 
clasping fimbriate petiole; heads many-flowered; scales of 
the involucre fourteen to sixteen, oblong, with three pellucid 
nerves; female flowers three-or four-toothed; their style very 
short bi-lobed ; style of the sterile flowers undivided; achenes 
indistinctly tetragonous, oblong—cuneate, with but slightly 
thickened angules.

Islands, and T. pusillum from New Zealand.
