Collected also by Dyall in Argya Monday Creek, and by Brown in the Rocky Mts.; in which collections it is referred dubiously
to A. canadensis - which indeed it approaches, but the sepals are always
shorter than the petals or more or less incurved, sometimes as much as in A. barbeyi, K., the limb being 1/3 taller than the petals yellow
with the sepals sometimes tinged with scarlet, 2-3° high, flattened, with the carpels
slightly exserted; loculus myriocarpa in aripo.
Cp. with A. scabriuscula, Linn. No good spec. in Herb. Gray,
& in the A. excalatum, Koenig, & differs from A. scabriusculum in
the less basally directed sepals & in the broader lower petals which are
dark slightly marked. 1940 [illegible] is intermediate in the form of
the leaves while the upper petals are also bifid. It differs
from A. elatum, dep., in its much broader lower petals which are more
conspicuously glandular & less, while the flowers are much smaller
Certainly not A. excalatum — May 27, N.Y.
