There are two forms of this species in British Columbia. One of a 

 slender habit, with five-lobed small leaves, the lobes obtuse or short 

 pointed, growing in thickets at Shuswap and Bnderby, B.C. ; the 

 other a much stouter plant with coarse, generally five-lobed leaves, 

 lobes with long tapering points, stems almost smooth. Salmon Arm, 

 Shuswap Lake, B.C. (Macoun), and Elk Eiver, Eocky Mountains.
