Hab. Rare in the Alpme woods and mountains nortb. of the Smoking River, lat. 56®. Druramond. — A. 

 very beautiful and distinct species, 6-7 inches high, with each one of its copious and subfasciculated branches 

 bearing 5-Q gracefully drooping yellow flowers, clothed, as well as the peduncles, with a rather thick glan- 

 dular down.

Hab. Nutka on the N. W. Coast of America. Mr, Menzies. Pursh gives the Rocky Mountains, and near 

 the mouth of the Columbia River, as other stations, upon the authority of M, Lewis, 



5. M. Grahamii; decandra, foliis linearibus obtusis obsolete glanduloso-denticulatis, 

 floribus (10-12) longiusculi pedunculatis, calycibus obtusis, corollis brevi-campanulatis 

 (roseis) glabris, stj^lo filiformi exserto. — M. empetriformis. Grah. in Bot. Mag, L 3176. 

 (nee Sm.) 



Hab. Alpine woods and open elevated situations of the Rocky Mountains, lat. 55°, Drummond. — On com- 

 paring the specimens of this plant with the original M, einpetriformis from Mr, Memies, I cannot but think 

 them truly distinct. The latter is a much stouter and taller plant, the branches clothed with a smooth 

 white shining bark, the leaves are flatter and thinner towards the edges, the margins distinctly toothed, and 

 so curved back as to form a dorsal groove (" concave beneath," Sm.)y the flowers are longer, and the style is 

 included. 



6. M, intermedia; decandra, foliis linearibus obtusis obscure glanduloso-serratis, floribus 

 (4-7) sublonge pedunculatis, calycibus acuminatis basi subglandulosis, corollis (pallide ro- 

 seis) cylindraceo-campanulatis glabris, stylo incluso. 



Hab. Woods and open places in the Rocky Mountains. Drummond, — The longer and less expanded co- 

 rolla, included style, and acuminated calycine segments, distinguish this from M, Grahamii, as do the cam- 

 panulate corolla, nearly entire leaves, and smaller size of the whole plant, from M. cmrulea.
