Prosartes lanuginosa major Hook. has been associated with P. oreganum Wats., but mis- 
takenly, since the latter species does not range east of Idaho. A Richardson specimen in 
the Gray Herbarium perhaps of the type collection is unquestionably P. trachycarpum 
Wats. We have, therefore, no hesitancy in giving the synonymy as above.
