lanuginosa; racemis dense lanuginosis, floribus duplo majoribus, foliis superioribus lat- 
ioribus. 
Besides the true A. borealis, we have the variety just noticed, which has a stouter habit, much broader 
cauline leaves, and a dense woolly raceme (peduncle, pedicels, and involucres); the tomentum of a yellowish 
hue, and flowers more than twice as large — as large indeed as those of A. arctica, from which it differs remark- 
ably in its foliage and tomentum. It will probably, on a future examination and comparison with other 
species, prove to be distinct. 
2. Artemisia arctica; erecta glabra vel hirsuta, foliis bipinnatifidis laciniis (racbique) 
linearibus acutis idtimis brevibus, superioribus pinnatifidis, racemo elongato, pedicellis 
elongatis bractea lineari integra longioribus, floribus majusculis nutantibus secundis, recep- 
taculo nudo. — Lessing, in Linncea, v. 6. p. 213. 
This is assuredly subject to much variation, and is nearly allied to A. Norvegica, which has the flowers 
of the present species, with the leaves of A. borealis. Of this, our tallest specimens (one foot high) are 
glabrous, with the segments of the leaves very sharply acuminated ; the pedicels an inch long. A second 
state of the plant is very downy, almost woolly ; it has stouter stems, less divided leaves, and pedicels two 
inches long. A third is only four or five inches taU, with the pedicels so long, especially the lower ones, 
(.3-4 inches), that they form a corymbus. 
3. Artemisia glomerata ; densissime csespitosa ubique sericeo-villosissima, ramis brevibus 
arete foliatis, foliis brevibus 3-5-fido-palmatis laciniis lanceolatis brevi-acuminatis inferiori- 
bus sessilibus caulinis late petiolatis, floribus capitatis, receptaculo nudo. — Lessing, in 
Linncea, v. 6. p. 212. 
We can hardly thinli but that this is the of Lessing, although the leaves of his plant are
