ular, with shorter hairs, branches more spreading and 
ls smaller.—Meadows, pasturages, wood-clearings; every¬ 
where. 6. officinalis auct. 1682. 
— Stem simple, rarely branchy. Ls broad-oval, less nu¬ 
merous, and the inflorescence consequently interrupted.

9. Ls always glabr., narrow, lanceolate or oblong-lanceo¬ 
late, very cuneiform at the base; teeth gen. only 2—4

*) A form approaching E. officinalis (E. versicolor Kern.?) in the 
Eginenthal.— E. arguta Kern., placed by Townsend by the side of E. alpina, 
appears to us to be rather a neighbour or identical with E. officinalis var. 
alpestris (better v. anadena) Grml.; this form, differing from E. offic. in its 
almost glabr. glandless ls, may also be found in this country.
