 cauline leaves with tomentose and conspicuously dilated rachis. Bracts pinnate ; 

 flowers dark purple, with two small teeth at the helmet. Corolla and calyx of a 

 tougher texture than in the following species, the former 3 — 4 times longer than the 

 latter. Stigma emarginate ; germ ovate.

66. P. Kanei, Nov. Spec. Caulibus compluribus ; foliis linearibus glabris ; pin- 

 nulis minutis, omnibus remotis, rachi petioloque vix dilatatis; corolla rosea, galea 

 edentata. 



Planta quam prsecedens robustior, radice carnosa, palmatim ramosa. Caules com- 

 plures, vix lanati ; folia linearia, glabra, pinnatifida ; pinnulaa minutas, omnes remotaf , 

 margine sursum fere integra, deorsum acute serrata; petiolus foliorumque rachis vix 

 dilatati ; prior ad basin parce lunatus. Spica densa ; bracteaa lanuginosa? angusto- 

 lanceolatae, fere integrae, ad apicem tantummodo obscure pauci-dentatse. Calyx 5 — 6 

 fidus, lana alba densissima implexus ; corolla rosea, textura tenerrima, calyce duplo 

 longior ; labium inferius tripartitum, suberoso-dentatum ; lobus medianus subrotundus 

 (in praacedenti emarginatus) galea minus incurva, angustior, edentata. Staminorum 

 filamenta pilosa ; stigma subrotundum, papillosum, integrum ; germen subglobosum. 



Pedicularis Kanei is easily distinguished from P. arctica by the delicacy of its pin- 

 nules, which are all remote on a rachis scarcely dilated ; by its bracts, perhaps more 

 lanuginous, but almost entire ; by its rose colored flowers, its edentate helmet, and 

 the thin texture of its corolla and calyx. The middle lobe of the inferior lip and 

 stigma are not emarginate as in P. arctica, and the germ is of a more globosa form. 

 It is, moreover, a larger plant, with many more stems and a more fleshy root.
