var. vulgaris Kittel, Fl. Deutschl. I (1837) p. 534. 



On dry hills and in thickets between Minusinsk and Kushab^r, and in the Amyl 

 valley. The variety is also rather frequent in the Urjankai country, where collected by me 

 at Ust Algiac, Ust Sisti-kem, Ust Kamsara, and on the Tara-kem. Flowering and with 

 fruits in July — August.

This variety has been found by me in the Altaian, above the limit of tree vegeta- 

 tion, in full flower at the end of July. It is distinguished from the preceding one by 

 having the stem lower, strict, generally simple and 1-flowered. The stems in the speci- 

 mens collected are 10 — 15 cm. high, puberulent below, nearly glabrous above. The corolla 

 is 17 — 27 mm. long. The specimens vary rather much in the breadth of the leaves, 

 the tops of which are always obtusely rounded, appressed, not spreading, 1-nerved. 



Distribution: Nearly all over Europe, Caucasia, Siberia, northwards to about 70' 

 north lal., and eastwards to the Sea of Okhotsk, northern Mongolia, Sakhalin, North 

 America, Greenland. The last-mentioned variety occurs especially in mountain regions.

Of this species I have only a single specimen in my collections, taken near Ust Algiac, 

 on the Sisti-kem, in dry, open brush-wood. The specimen measures over 1 m. in height, 

 rather flowery; length of flowers 2—2,5 cm. In full bloom on the 19th of July. My spe- 

 cimen agrees perfectly with a specimen I have seen in F. Karo, Plantae Amuricae et 

 Zeaense, curavit I. Dorfler, no. 411. 



Distribution: The centre of the species seemed to be Trans Baikal, where it is espe- 

 cially common, ranging westwards through southern Siberia, roughly to the river Yeni- 

 sei, and eastwards to the Amoor Province.
