Teratological Notes, 
1. On the Stipules of Lathyrus poly- 
phyllus. Dr. Masters* only mentions 
additional stipules in the case of Sa- 
4x fragilis. On a specimen of La- 
thyrus polyphyllus collected in California 
by Kellogg and Harford in 1868-1869, 
the lowest pair of leaflets is replaced by 
two stipules identical with those that 
subtend the rachis. The leaflets are 
normally alternate, but the additional 
stipules are opposite, as are the lower 
ones. About one-half of the leaves of 
the specimen are thus modified.
