Scattered in the taiga territory about the rivers Amyl and Sisti-kem, flowering in

 scarcely exceed the sepals, /' parviflorum A. Bl.

Pretty common in the territory traversed, especially in the subalpine wooded tracts 

 about the Upper Amyl and the Sisti-kem, where I have collected it flowering and with 

 incipient fruit formation in the middle of July. At Kalna I have collected a form with 

 very small petals, only about 3,5 — 4 mm. long, scarcely exceeding the sepals. For 

 the rest, it agrees with the typical form. About Ust Tara-kem the species occurs on flood- 

 plains, in woods of larch intermingled with various foliage trees. 



Distribution: Eastern Russia, through the greater part of Siberia, northern Mongolia.
