beneath, retuse to obtuse; peduncles 4-7 cm. long; racemes 3-5 cm. 

 long, interrupted, many-flowered, the flowers 2 or 3 at each node; corolla 

 about 6 mm. long, blue; pod ovoid, 6-7 mm. long. Dry plains: Tex. 

 s Colo. Ariz. Son. Son. 



482 Under P. cuspidata add as synonym: Psoralea aromatica Payson. 



482 Before Parosela insert: 



13a. PSORODENDRON Rydb. 



Shrubs or trees with pinnate or simple glandular-dotted leaves, the 

 branches often spinescent; calyx turbinate, slightly adnate at the base 

 to the ovary. Corolla papilionaceous, the petals subequal or the keel 

 longer, all inserted at the base of the staminal tube. Ovary 2-6-ovuled. 

 Pod more or less compressed, longer than the calyx. 



483 The first three species of Parosela should be transferred to this genus 

 and bear the names: 



1. Psorodendron Fremontii (Torr.) Rydb., 2. P. Johnssonii 



(S. Wats.) Rydb. and 3. P. amoenum (S. Wats.) Rydb. 



483 After 7. P. lanata insert: 



7a. P. terminalis (M. E. Jones) A. Heller. Like P. lanata in habit; 

 bracts rhombic obovate, very villous, caudate-acuminate; calyx finely 

 puberulent when young, soon glabrous and shining, the lobes triangular, 

 villous, scarceh' half as long as the tube. Dry soil: Tex. s Utah. 

 Ariz. Chihuahua. Je-Au. 



485 Before 17. Peteria insert: 



16a. GALEGA L. 



Perennial herbs. Leaves odd-pinnate, with numerous entire leaflets 

 with parallel oblique lateral veins and semi-sagittate stipules. Racemes 

 terminal and axillary. Flowers without bractlets. Calyx campanulate, 

 with 5 equal teeth. Banner oblong-obovate, short-clawed. Wings oblong, 

 slightly coherent with the incurved keel. Stamens monadelphous. Ovary 

 sessile; style filform, with a terminal stigma. Legume linear, 2-valved, 

 the valves obliquely striate. 



1. G. officinalis L. Plant bright-green; stem 4-6 dm. high, striate; 

 leaves short-petioled; leaflets 11-17, oblong to lanceolate, obtuse, ac- 

 urninate-mucronate; racemes many-flowered; bracts subulate; corolla 

 blue, rarely white; legume glabrous, linear. Escaped from cultivation: 

 Utah; native of c. and s. Eur. and the Orient. Jl-Au. 



486 Before Phaca insert: 



17b. COLUTEA L. BLADDER-BUSH. 



Shrubs with odd-pinnate leaves. Flowers perfect, in axillary racemes. 

 Calyx campanulate, 5-lobed. Corolla yellow or reddish; banner round, 

 erect, clawed; wing-petals broad, obliquely ovate, clawed; keel-petals 

 strongly lunate, acute at the apex. Stamens diadelphous. Style bearded 

 on the upper side. Pod inflated, 1-celled, papery, stipitate. 



1. C. arborescens L. A shrub, 2-4 m. high; young branches, leaves, 

 and peduncles strigose; leaflets 9, obovate, emarginate, paler beneath; 

 corolla bright yellow, about 2 cm. long; pod short-stipitate, obliquely 

 lanceolate in outline, 5 cm. long, 2cm. broad. Colo.; N. Y. Pa.; escaped 

 from cultivation; native of s Eur. 



486 Following correction should be made in the Key of Phaca: P. Wetherillii 

 and P. allochroa have sessile pods and in P. megacarpa the pod is short- 

 stipitate. 



492 In the key under Geoprumnon, in the last line, after leaflets insert 

 "oblong," and under G. succulentum, the last line, omit "elliptic or 

 broadly oblong."
