Rhizoma ad collum piloso-cristatum. Caules spe breves, 
scapiformes vel paucifoliati, oligocephali glanduloso-pilosi. Folia 
tenuia valde glauca, oblonga vel elliptica, pilis elongatis villosa, 
et ad petiolum barbato-hirsuta; pilis spe denticulatis nunquam 
eptac 
d glandulose. Ligule speciose lute vel flavee, apice ciliate, 
ciliis breviter articulatis. 
The group may be said to include three British species,— 
H. callistophyllum Hanbury, H. anglicum Fries, and H. iricum Fries. 
In the last edition of the London Catalogue nine species are

H. decipiens—i.e. H. cerinthoides var. decipiens Monnier—is the

H. anglicum have been described :—

_ In grouping the British species of the subgenus Archieracium, 
it is proposed to arrange them under ten sections in two series : 
(1) Phyllopoda and (2) Aphyllopoda, as defined by Godet and some 
what modified by Celakovsky. These are preferable to the artificial 
groups of Aurella, Pulmonarea, and Accipitrina, proposed by ies. 
The Phyllopodous series are divided into the two subseries of 
Trichophylla and Adenophylia, on the character of the leaves, 
whether glaucous and invested with simple non-glandular hairs, oF 
e 
posed by Adolph Scheele in Linnea, xv. (1862), of grouping the 
spec: im i ] 1 
Gymnoclinica, on the character of the presence or absence of hairs 
in the pits of the common receptacle, is not one that works out 
very well.
