Hab. On the high sandy banks of the Columbia, near Oakanagan, and on Spokan River. Douglas,— ^. 

 splendid species, with very brilliant blue flowers slightly tinged with blush. 



19. P. Tolmiei; humilis herbaceus csespitosus glaberrimus, foliis lanceolatis acutis sub- 

 coriaceis integerrimis marginatis sessilibus sub lente impresso-punctatis inferioribus 

 petiolatis, verticillis florum racemosis densis, pedicellis plurifloris brevibus, corollis parvis, 

 limbi laciniis acutis subaequalibus,'capsulis fuscis calycem sequantibus. 



Hab. Mt. Rainier, N. of the Columbia. Mr Tolmie.—K very distinct species, scarcely a span high, with 

 woody horizontal roots, sending out copious fibres below, and above numerous tufted stems. The specimens 

 are all in fruit : one withered corolla alone remaining, which is scarcely half-an-inch long, with acute 

 segments to the limb. Inflorescence almost spicate. 



20. P. frutescens; caule fruticoso, ramis angulatis superne pubescentibus, foliis lan- 

 ceolatis obsolete denticulatis sessilibus glabriusculis, racemis terminalibus subcorym- 

 bosis, filamento sterili longitudinaliter barbato. [PL)— Lamb, in Linn, Tram. v. 1.

Hab. Unalaschka. Pallas. North-west coast. Lewis. {Jide Pursh,)— A most beautiful shrubby plant, 

 with leaves 3-4 inches long andj inch broad. I know not in what particular part of the N.W. coast 

 Lewis gathered it. Pallas is reported to have found it also in Kamstchatka; but notwithstanding I have 

 received several collections from these three stations, I have never been so fortunate as to obtain°a speci- 

 men ; noT have I ever seen one. 



21. P. Menziesii; fruticosus humilis vage ramosus, foliis glabris obovato-cuneatis 

 obtusis coriaceis apicem versus serratis brevi-petiolatis, racemis terminalibus, floribus 

 speciosis oppositis tubuloso-campanulatis — Gerardia fruticosa. Ph. Am v 2 p 423

Hab. Natka. A. Menzies, Esq. In great abundance in the Pine forests of the Rocky Mountains. 

 Lewis, (ex. Pursh.) I am not sure how far Mr Lewis' stations for plants, as given in Pursh, are to be 

 depended upon. Mr Douglas does not appear to have found this in any of the numerous Pine forests of the 

 Rocky Mountains which he traversed ; and my only specimens are from Nutka. where the fine species was 

 gathered by Mr Menzies so long ago as 1 788._Flowers as large as in the preceding species. 



22. P. Douglasii; fruticosus humilis, ramis subfastigiatis erectis, foliis glaberrimis 

 obovato-lanceolatis acutis coriaceis integerrimis sessilibus, racemis terminalibus, pedi- 

 cellis oppositis, capsulis nigrescentibus calyce paululum longioribus. 



^ Hab. Blue Mountains of N.W. America. Douglas. ~k\\\e^ to the last, but quite distinct. Leaves i to 

 ^ of an inch long, almost black in drying, the old withered ones pale yellow-brown. Calyeine segments 

 ovato-lanceolate, slightly serrated, much paler than the dark-coloured capsules. There are no flowers on 

 any 01 my specimens.
