 afterwards (in Bot. Not. 1873) 

 rightly identified with Draba 

 altaica. 



Draba alpina v. glacialis Kjellm. 

 (Fig. 13) from Gap Tscheljuskin 

 is not, as Kjellman thought, the 

 D. glacialis Adams but a den- 

 sely cæspitose, pulvinate form of 

 D. alpina. Quite the same form 

 is found by Jos. Hooker in Sikkim 

 H-ISOOO'.

The leaves are oblong (Fig. 14), 

 lanceolate, entire or rarely with 

 a single tooth, with a thick 

 yellow, on the under surface 

 prominent middlevein , which 

 does not reach the top of the 

 leaves. Generally the leaves are 

 ciliated with long single or forked 

 hairs, which are turned forward; 

 often they are also more or less 

 hairy on the surfaces with small 

 downy branched hairs; very 

 rarely the leaves are quite gla- 

 brous, and it is then separated 

 from D. crassifolia by the pro- 

 minent middlevein. Stems gene- 

 rally are leafless but now and 

 then a single leaf can be found; 

 it is generally glabrous, but also 

 occasionally hairy, — even very 

 densely so. Stems thin as in
