KOTZEBUE'S SOUND. 



[ Umbellifera. 



2. Saxifraga cermia. Linn. — Engl. Bot. t. 664. De Cand. Prodr. v. 4. p. 89. — f3. mul- 

 tiflora. 



There are, in the Herbarium, some remarkable states of this plant, C-8 inches high, branched upwards, and 

 each branch bearing- a large flower, no bulbs. This is perhaps the most perfect form : and the very oppo- 

 site to that which grows in Scotland, where almost all the flowers are turned into sessile bulbs. Perhaps 

 the S. Stephaniana Sternb. Saxifr. Suppl. p. 8. t. 6. f. 2, may be correctly referred to our variety /3. 

 S. Sibirica also seems too nearly allied to it. 



3. Saxifraga rivularis. Linn. 



4. Saxifraga Dahurica. Sternb. Saxifr. p. 13. et var. — var. /3. foliis angustioribus glan- 

 duloso-pubescentibus, panicula decomposita. 



This species seems to vary considerably in the breadth and pubescence of its leaves. Our var. has the 

 pubescence and panicle of the (i. lati folia of Sternberg (Saxifr. Suppl. t. 5,) but the leaves are narrower. 



5. Saxifraga hieracifolia. Waldst. et Kit. v. 1. p. 17. t. 18. 



6. Saxifraga Nelsoniaua ; caule glanduloso superne pubescente, foliis longe petiolatis 

 orbiculari-cordatis crenato-lobatis venosis margine venisque subtus glandulosis, glandulis 

 pedicellatis, racemis compositis subspiciformibus, bracteis lanceolatis pedicellisque glandu- 

 losis, calycis segmentis triangular i-ovatis acutis. (Tab. XXIX.) — Don in Linn. Trans, 

 v. 13. p. 354. 



Caulis spithamseus ad pedalem, erectus, robustus, simplex, glandulis pedicellatis asper, inferne glaber 

 superne pubescens. Folia ampla, longe petiolata, orbiculari-cordata, coriaceo-membranacea, glabra, reticulatim 

 venosa, crenato-lobata, dentibus acutis, margine nervisque subtus petioliscpie glandulis pedicellatis instructis. 

 Petioli ad basin membrauaceo-vaginantes. llacemus digitalis ad spithamffium, compositus, densus, sub- 

 spiciformis : rachis pedicellique pubescentes et glandulosi. B/actece lanceolate, acuminata 1 , Horis longitudine, 

 margine glanduloso. Flores inter maximos hujusce generis. Calyx glaudulosus, laciniis ovatis, acutis seu 

 acuminatis, erecto-patentibus. Pctula patentia, obovata, subunguiculata, hirsuta. Stamina petalis breviora. 

 Ovarium seminiferum. Styli 2, erecto-patentes. 



It is very strange if this fine Saxifrage should have escaped the notice of Chamisso : yet we do not find 

 it described by Sternberg in the Supplement to his Monographia Saxifrag., where the other species of Chamisso 

 are detailed. We possess the same plant from the Pocky Mountains, gathered by Mr. Drummond.
