smaller) and stylopodium as in (. gasrdnert, but the slender styles

From northern California and Nevada to Vancouver Island and

4, Carum lemmoni ©. & R. Bot. Gaz. 14: 283. L889. 
Resembling C. gairdner’, but fruit oblong, tapering somewhat at 
base and apex, 3mm. long and 2 mm. broad, and with conspicuous 
ribs, each of which contains a small group of strengthening cells; calyx 
teeth prominent and concealing the small stylopodium; styles long and 
slender. 
Type locality, ‘* Tuolumne forest,” California; collected by Lemmon, 
August, 1889; type in U. S. Nat. Herb., duplicate in Herb. Coulter. 
Tuolumne County, Cal., and perhaps extending northward to Jose- 
phine County, Oreg., and southward to Los Angeles County, Cal. 
Specimens examined: 
CALIFORNIA: Type specimens as cited under type locality. 
Two other collections are tentatively referred here, but they are distinct in geo- 
graphical range and somewhat in character, although subsequent collections may 
connect the three stations in a more general distribution. They are as follows: 
Valley of Siskiyou Mountains, altitude 600 meters, Josephine County, Oreg., 
Lemmon 81, October 23, 1889. These specimens seem to be almost identical with 
those from Tuolumne County, Cal. . 
Brackish flats near Ballona, Los Angeles County, Cal., Hasse, September 20, 1890. 
In these specimens the fruit is less tapering, being more distinctly oblong, and the 
stylopodia are sometimes a little more prominent.
