Piper : Noteworthy Northwestern Plants 401 



California: Donner Pass, Torrey, no. 489, in 1865. Near 

 Mineral Spring, Sierra Nevada, Coville and Funston, no. 1427. 



These California specimens are imperfect and are somewhat 

 doubtfully referred to the species here described. 



Evidently related to the above, but with nearly the foliage 01 

 Salix macrocarpa Nutt.: it differs from S. bclla further in having 

 pedunculate pistillate aments, smaller capsules, with the scales 

 short-villous, and no stipules : from 5. pcllita the capsules and 

 scales, as well as the foliage clearly separate it.
