and now have them for exchange with those interested in the 
Coniferzee who have plants which I desire. The two-leaved form 
grows in more moist places than the typical plant, and so far as 
my observation goes does not occur at all to the west or south in 
dry situations. I have never seen it in the Wasatch; it is doubtless 
too moist for it there. The var. edu/is does not grow in Utah so 
far as I know, but I have collected it in various places in Colorado.

BY T. S. BRANDEGEE. 
PHACELIA (EUPHACELIA) EIsent. Annual, short-hirsute, low 
and branching from the base: leaves alternate, 10-1 5 mm. long, on 
petioles of the same length, elliptic oblong, simple or occasionally 
with a few lobes near the base: inflorescence open, hardly scorpioid, 
flowers on slender spreading pedicels once or twice their length; | 
calyx 2-3 mm. long, the lobes narrowly spatulate, hispid and~ 
moderately unequal: corolla blue, about twice the length of the calyx; 
lobes nearly parallel, 3-nerved, surpassing the anthers; appendages 
short, attached their whole length, united at base in front of the fila- 
“This name published in April, 1873, has priority over Dr. Gray’s P. namatoides* — 
Dr. Gray quotes Kellogg’s name in his description, but gives the species a new 
name without remark—probably considering it inappropriate in the genus to which 
it was transferred,
