"90 7-26-34 E pilosium. Fls adv fr Por on path above est Clemonsley (list out from the Sandtoyz-Caux Path) is stat at Caux near top of Rapide -> little V-M. Stigma is very distinctly 4-divided (lobes triangular) and base (?) has underground runners (now to 5 cm long) like those of E. alsinefolium. This would seem to point to E. Derivaei Hayace to Cote II 78 but here SVKI 467 makes this seem doubtful. Certainly neither at nor up above are "fast melting becaut" Carepet (?) plant is exactly like E. montanum (this specimen). Shape of dentidulation is the same. Sts fr & edges, Ie not the same downiness of gray plant curved hairs. Veinon st (if any) can be seen only with a strong imagination (?ox). Bud differs from E. montanum in being squarely set off from ovary as it is in E. alsinefolium (not merging into ovary as in E. montanum). Note that E. alsinefolium has somewhat greener, frailer look; its mostly glabrous except on the lines (hairs like those of E. montana) and young fr sparsely gland-hairy (in E. montanum def. downy with short curved hairs) Best guess is that this is hybrid E. montanum x E. alsinefolium. See SVKI 256.
