grounds. Mr. Menzies found it on the North-West coast of America; Chamisso detected it in Unalaschka; 
and Messrs. Lay and Colhe in Kotzebue’s Sound. Dr. Richardson describes the scape and bracteas as reddish, 
and the sepals as marked with a red line down the back, or ndiolly dull red ; whence the specific name. 
That Author, too, well obseiwes, “ Herba elegantia T. borealis tota carens.” The leaves are more flaccid, and 
of a duller coloim, and the flowers are almost entirely sessile ; thus bringing the involucrum close to the 
flower, which, in T. borealis, is separated by the length of the pedicel.
