C. H. OSTENFELD AND OVE PAULSEN.

Eastern Pamir, Mus-tagh-ata, Kamper-kishlak, near the glacier, on a wet meadow, ca. 4 500 m., 29 th July 1894 (flowering).

N. E. Tibet, Camp XXV, south of Arka-tagh, 4980 m., 29 th June 1901 (flowering). The Pamir specimens belong to var. pseudo-hirculus (Schrenk) Trautv. (in Bull. Soc. Moscou 1860, 68), the Tibetan ones are young and dwarfish.

Geogr. area: Afghanistan, Turkestan, Pamir, Himalaya, Tibet, Mongolia, Dahuria, Siberia.

Ranunculus hirtellus Royle, Illustr. Bot. Himal. (i8 3 9) 53 ; Stewart, in Bull. Torrey

Bot. Club (1916) 633.

Tibet, no locality (flowering).

The incomplete specimen agrees well with some specimens of R. hirtellus from

HOOKER f. and THOMSON'S collections.

Geogr. area: Himalaya, Tibet.

Ranunculus aquatilis L., Sp. pl. ed. i (17 5 3) 556; Hemsley, in Journ. Linn. Soc. 3 5 (I 902 ) 16 2 ; Stewart, in Bull. Torrey Bot. Club (1916) 633 ; Fedtschenko, in Acta Horti Petrop. XXI (1903) 2 47 ; XXIV (1905) 3 18 (var. panto/kn. x Ledeb.).

Eastern Pamir, Moraine lake between the glaciers Koch-korchu and Korumde on the western side of Mus-tagh-ata, 4367 m., 28 th July 1894 (flowering and fruiting); Freshwater pool in the valley of Ulutör, Taghdumbash-Pamir, 4589 m., 3 rd Aug. 1895 (no full flowering nor fruit present).

Tibet, without locality (i 901, fruiting) ; S. W. Tibet, the dry, old bed of Satlej, in small lagoons, west of Rakas-tal, the former outlet of the lake, 4589 m., 6th Sept. 1907 (with a few fruits); the valley of the Upper Tsangpo, Camp CLXXXIX, Dongbo, 4598 m., 2 9th June 9o7 (flowering).

The very variable water-buttercups are difficult to name, and I have preferred to refer all the specimens collected to the collective name R. aquatilis L. None of them have any floating leaves. Those from Dongbo (Tsangpo valley) are referable to R. pellatus Schrenk, f. ,fts eu dofluit ans (Hiern., in Journ. Bot. 1871), others are probably better placed under R. f>aucistamineus Tausch.

Geogr. area: Northern temperate hemisphere, especially common in Eurasia, more

local in North America.
