Potentilla Wiieeleri Viscidhla

subviscosa

POTENTILLA WIIEELERI VISCIDHLA n. V.

Subcaespitose, rather hirsute with spreading hairs, somewhat glandular-granuliferous on the calyx, pedicel, etc.; leaflets shorter and broader,\generally less than i cm. lenvg.

The following specimens have been seen : Arizona : C. G. Pringle, 1881 ; J. G. Lemmon, no. 158. 1881.

California : W. G. Wright, 1879 ; Coville & Funston, no. 1672.

1891.

Pringle labelled his specimens Potenti7la subviscosa Greene (near P. Wats.). I think, however, that it should be referred to P. Wheeleri rather than to P. subviscosa, as it does not have the dis sected leaves and the subunguiculate petals of P. subviscosa.
