— Stem 20—25 cm, bearing 3 — 4 Is and 1—4 heads- Ped¬ 
uncles and invols with numerous stellate hairs, simple 
grayish hairs and fairly numerous glands. Branches, 
when existing, straight and fairly erect. Rad. Is gen. 
only 1—2, oblong-lanceolate, with distant teeth, in¬ 
sensibly narrowed at the base. Invol. Is rather more 
acute than in the last. Differing from H. pseudoporrec- 
tum, Bocconei and dentatum in its half-clasping lowest 
caul. 1.; from H. pseudoporrectum in its fairly 
glandular peduncles, its invols covered with numerous 
stellate hairs, its invol. Is more obtuse and its ligules 
ciliate; from H. Bocconei in its villous invols; from 
H. dentatum in its less acute invol. Is, covered with 
numerous stellate hairs; in its ciliate ligules and gland¬ 
ular peduncles. H. dentatum salsevense macrophyllum

— Stem 30—40 cm, bearing 3—7 Is and several or many 
heads. Peduncles with abundant glands accompanied or 
not by stellate hairs, but without simple hairs or more 
rarely these latter few and scattered. Rad. Is gen. only 
1—2, narrowed insensibly (often obliquely) to a long- 
petiole. Invols as in H. pronanthoides from which it 
differs in the caul. Is being less numerous**), distinctly 
toothed, less or hardly fiddle-shaped, in the rad. Is which 
exist during flowering-time having long petioles, and in 
the reddish brown fr. It differs from H vulgatum in 
having caul. Is slightly clasping, sometimes rather 
fiddle-shaped, gen. more net-veined underneath, in its 
ligules gen. being ciliate, and in its red-brown (not black) fr.

*) H. epimedium Fr. has broad invol. Is, quite obtuse, darker, very 
glandular, in Savoy (Mirantin !) and the Tyrol! perhaps also in Switzerland. 
**) The more numerous the caul. Is, the fewer the rad. Is, and vice-versa. 
***) H. papyraceum Gren. ! (Mont d’Or) resembles H. vulgatum pseudo- 
murorurn, but has half-clasping caul. Is.—Other similar forms are H. ellipticum 
Jord.! and H. subalpinum Arv.-Touv. !—H. dronicifolium Arv.-Touv.l 
which, according to the author, is found in the neighbouring Savoy, at the 
foot of the Dent d’Oche, belongs also to this group.
