Eastern Pamir, Mus-tagh-ata, the eastern shore of Little Kara-kul, 3720 m., 16 th July 1894 (flowering).
East-Turkestan, Bash-kurgan, three days' journey S. E. of Lop-nor, 2629 m., 5th July 1900 (flowering and with young fruits).
Northern Tibet, Mandarlik, 3437 m., medio July 1900 (flowering).
The very variable species-aggregate C. orientales is, in High Asia, represented by a series of forms, the taller of which are climbing and inhabit the regions with a comparatively rich vegetation, while in the more desolate and high-alpine places a dwarf, not-climbing form is present; this latter is C. libelana O. Kuntze (1. c.), which I consider only a high-alpine modification of the more richly developed var. acufi-
folia Hook. f. et Thorns.
Geogr. area: Asia (Japan and Arctic regions excepted), Africa south of the desert;
var. acutifolia: Himalaya, Tibet, Pamir, Mongolia.
Farn. Caryophyllaceæ

The only tuft present (see Pl. VIII, Fig. I) is very dense and the peduncles are very short; thus it agrees with var. imbricata Edgew. and Hook. f. (in FI. Brit. Ind. I, 237; non A. imbricata M. Bieb. ; an A. kumaonensis Maxim., Fl. Tangut. I [ 18 8 9] 86?).
Geogr. area: Tibet and alpine Himalaya.
