85. ASCLEPIAS INVOLUCRATA Engelm. var TOMENTOSA n. 
var. This differs from the description of the species and from speci- 
mens in the Herbarium of the California Academy of Sciences in 
the following characters: Tomentose throughout, leaves ovate- 
lanceolate, acuminate, sometimes orbicular; margins wavy and 
densely tomentose from 3 to 7 cm. long and from 1 to 2 cm. broad 
at base. Umbel closely sessile with involucral leaves, densely 
white-tomentose and linear-lanceolate.. There is, however, but 
little or no difference in the flowers. It grew along Court House 
Wash and the San Juan River near McElmo Creek, and was 
alike in both localities, 
86. FRASERA ALBOMARGINATA Watson. This was seen
