I have further seen it from the following localities (all present in Kew Herb.): Sikkim, I 5th and 24th July 1849, J. D. Hooker; Kashmir, Herb. Falconer, 3657 m. (mixed with A. flaccidus); NW. India, Royle (mixed with the same); Ridge above Jhala, Ganges Valley, 12 - 13000 feet, Duthie No. 790, 29th June 1883 ; Yatung,

Tibet, H. E. Hobron 1897.

Geogr. area: Alpine Himalaya and adjacent parts of Tibet.

As to A. elegans Hook. f. et Thoms. apud Clarke, no authentic specimen is in Kew Herb., and I follow Hooker fil. in leaving it out.

A. tibeticus Hook. f. (Fl. Brit. India III, 2 51) consists — to judge from the many specimens at Kew — mainly of forms of the species-aggregate ))Erigeron alfinus«, mostly »var. uniiorus « in the sense of Hook. f., Fl. Brit. India III, 2 56. But also specimens of A. flaccidus (A. heterochceta) are found under that name. As based upon such a mixture I think it better to drop this name.

Leontopodium.

Dr. G. BEAUVERD of Geneva (L'Herbier Boissier), who has made a special study of the genus Leont000diuin and allied genera, has examined the material brought home by Dr. Sven Hedin and has published four new varieties (in Bull. Soc. bot. Genève, 2. série, vol. II [1910], pp. 249-253).
