This is one of our northwestern forms that has usually been included under Sa.rifraga leucanthenrifolia (S. illichauxii). It is

more closely related however to the old world S. sic/fern's, but is nearer the Alleghenian S. Illichanxii than any of the several west American species of the subgenus Ambidia that have so persis tently been referred to the Alleghanian form.
