SCROPHULARIACE^:. 443 



2. CENOE, Gray. Corolla (with one exception) large for the plant, and with 

 a long-exserted and slender (even filiform) tube, expanded throat, and obscurely 

 bilabiate limb ; the lower lip sometimes small or obsolete : style pubescent above : 

 capsule cartilaginous, unequal-sided, sulcate at the dissepimental sutures, and 

 sharp-edged at the posterior dorsal one, enclosed at first in the narrow prismatic 

 and gibbous-based calyx, long persistent, indeed never detached, very tardily de- 

 hiscent, mainly by the posterior suture : placentae connate in the ovary but early 

 separating in the fruit :. purple-flowered and low winter annuals, mostly blossom- 

 ing from near the root. -- (PL Hartw. 32'J) Bot. Calif, i. 563. Eunanus (Euoe 

 and part of Eunanus proper, Greene, Bull. Calif. Acad. i. 98, 100. 



* Capsule small ami ovate or oblong-oval, much indurated : pygmy plants, flowering from the 

 ground and remaining very low, the stems in age seldom equalling or much longer than the 

 long-tubed (inch or two long) corollas, barely pubescent, neither glandular nor viscid, vernal. 



M. tricolor, LINDL. Leaves mostly lanceolate : corolla (when well developed 2 inches 

 long) with ample somewhat regular limb, pink or lilac with a dark crimson, blotch ou each 

 of the rounded lobes, the 3 lobes of the lower lip about the length of the two-lobed upper ; 

 the throat yellow and brown-crimson, commonly spotted, open funnelform, about half the 

 length of the slender tube : anther-cells bearded at base : stigma of semi-orbicular and 

 slightly unequal lobes united by their edges at base : seeds very numerous, small, oblong, or 

 obovate-obloug minutely scaberulous, becoming smooth in age. Common iu the great 

 valley of California, especially on the Sacramento. To the synonymy on p. 274, add Eunanus 

 tricolor, Greene, 1. c. 99. The former character of the fruit and seeds was taken from a 

 fruiting specimen of M. Doiiglasii, through mismatching. 



M. angustatus. Exiguous, commonly acaulescent : leaves linear and linear-spatulate : 

 corolla of the preceding species, except that the filiform tube is 4 to 8 times the length of 

 the short funnelform throat, and the lower lip rather shorter than the upper : lobes of the 

 stigma broadly cuneate : seeds (not here seen) according to Greene "few, large, favose- 

 pitted or favose-reticulate." M. tricolor, var. angustatus, Gray, 1. c. Eunanus angustatus, 

 Greene, 1. c. Mountains of the northern part of California ; first coll. by Bolander. 



M. Douglasii, GRAY. Leaves obovate or oblong : corolla with crimson-purple 2-lobed 

 upper lip forming the principal limb, the lower lip reduced to a truncate sinuately 3-crenate 

 border, or with a more conspicuous dentiform middle lobe ; the throat brown-purplish, rather 

 narrowly campanulate, about one third the length of the tube: capsule somewhat flattened 

 and with one very sharp-edged dorsal suture : seeds only 20 to 40 in each cell, comparatively 

 large, scurf v-muriculate, becoming smooth in age. Part of M. Doiiglasii, Gray, Proc. Am.

M. atropurpureus, Ke'logg, Proc. Calif. Acad. i. 59, partly, fide Curran & Greene. 

 Eunanus Doiiglasii, Benth. in DC. Prodr. x. 374 (not PI. Hartw.); Greene, Bull. Calif. 

 Acad. i. 98. Chiefly in the central and northern parts of California, blooming very early. 

 Mixed first by Beutham (in PI. Hartw.) with the following species as to the flowering plant, 

 with which mature fruit of M. tricolor was distributed ; hence a confusion to which the Syn. 

 Fl. added, and also increased by taking fruit of M. Doiiglasii for that of M. tricolor. 



* * Capsule short-linear, at length arcuate : caulescent, flowering later and longer, viscidulous- 

 pubescent. 



-i With long-exserted filiform tube to the corolla, as of the section. 



M. Kelloggii, CURRAN. Erect, a span or two or becoming a foot high, with internodes 

 longer than leaves : these ovate to obovate or spatulate-lanceolate : corolla crimson-purple ; 

 its tube inch long, expanding into a short-funnelform throat and oblique limb ; short lobes 

 of lower lip only half the length of the upper and more spreading: stigma with ovate and 

 obtuse unequal lobes, or by their union obliquely peltate : capsule narrow, obtuse (4 or 5 

 lines long and a line thick), rather terete, moderately unequal-sided : seeds comparatively 

 few and large, obovate. Curran in herb. Gray. M. Doufflasii, partly, Gray, Bot. Calif., &c., 

 as to descr. of fruit. M. atropurpureus, Kellogg, Proc. Calif. Acad. i. 59, mainly, as to char.
