8-5-34 bracts. Lower brads f[illegible] rather spreading.
Lower 9mm diam just under rays. Head would
be about 13 mm diam across top if the rays spread
flat. Profils from pfs. Basal lvs to 17 mm long by 3 x 5 mm
at the def of spatulate tip. Tips often slightly emarginate.
St lvs 4, narrowly lanceolate, the upper most bract-
like (st does not look lfy). All lvs perfectly glabrous
on upper surface. St lvs with a few scattered hairs
beneath; rather long hairs on edges; the basal
lvs almost glabrous beneath and shorter
hairs on edges. St 60 cm to base of head, stiffly erect,
ridged, hairy with non-particulate heads.

8-5-34? Arenaria ciliata L. Coote F 2010; Bon 58; BIN 72;
SVK I 247. Fls young fr. Engadine. This is queried b[illegible]
cause it is very suggestive of A. inflata as well (Coote):
stems lfy with lvs longer than internodes; fls 1-2
in pedicels shorter than calyx; lvs rounded at
apex. But dried lvs show the white projecting foodots
of A. ciliata [SVK] this P.B.K can not distinguish.
the translucent dots in peak lvs noted on 8-6-34.
St sepals show 3 nerves inside. Preserved to study
when dry (somewhat mildewed when pressed).
