Phlox douglasii Hook. Fl. Bor. Amer. ii, 73 (1838), 
Common around Hot Springs, altitude 1,100 m., June 15 (No. 881), 
On wooded hillsides was found a peculiar Phlox, probably belonging to this spe- 
cies. The plant is prostrate, spreading, slender, with very narrow, subulate, weak, 
leaves, the corolla scarcely longer than the calyx. Hot Springs, altitude 1,300 m., 
June 15 (No. 880), 
Phlox douglasii andicola (Nutt. ) Britton, Mem. Torr, Club, v, 269 (1895); Phlox 
andicola Nutt.; Gray, Proc. Amer. Acad. vill, 254 (1870). 
Table-land: Hot Springs, altitude 1,100 m., June 14 (No. 882), 
Phlox kelseyi Britton, Bull. Torr. Club, xix, 225 (1892), 
All specimens collected differ from the typical Phlox kelseyi in having nearly white 
instead of blue or lilac flowers. Two forms were found. One of them has long 
leaves 1.5 to 3em. long and 2 to 31mm. wide, and larger flowers on pedicels 1 to 2 em, 
long. Hot Springs, altitude 1,100 m., June 13; Sylvan Lake, altitude 2,000 m., 
July 19 (No, 883). The other is more cespitose, has shorter and broader leaves, 
0.5 to 1.5 em, long and 3 to 4mm, wide, and the nearly sessile flowers haye shorter 
tubes. This is evidently the same as P. longifolia brevifolia Gray,' collected by 
Jenney, although I have not seen that plant. My specimens were collected about 
20 miles from Jenneys Stockade, in the Limestone District, near Bull Springs, alti- 
tude 1,900 m., July 26. Britton refers Jenney’s plant to Phlox kelseyi, The original 
variety brevifolia? is to be referred to Phlox stansburyi (Torr.) Britton. From this 
Phlox kelseyi is easily distinguished by its larger flowers and the very broad, obovate 
lobes of the corolla (No. 884). 
Collomia linearis Nutt. Gen. i, 126 (1818), 
Hermosa, altitude 1,100 m., June 23; Rochford, altitude 1,700 m., July 11; Lead 
City, altitude 1,500 m., July 17. The specimens from the latter place are unusually 
large and branching, some even 4 to 5 din. high (No, 8&5). 
Gilia spicata capitata Gray, Proc. Amer. Acad. viii, 274 (1870), 
I believe that this is distinct from G, spicata. It resembles it in foliage, but the 
form of the corolla is different. Dry hills or table-lands: Hot “prings, altitude 
1,100 m., June 13; Deadwood, altitude 1,509 in, July 5; Bull Springs, altitude 
1,900 m., July 25 (No. 886).
