444 SUPPLEMENT. 



Eunanus Douglasii, Benth. PI. Hartw. no. 1894 (excl. ripe fruit described, which is of M. 

 tricolor) ; Grav, Pacif. R. Rep. iv. 120, mainly, riot Benth. in DC. E. Kelloygii, Curran, in 

 Greene, Bull. Calif. Acad. i. 100. Common through middle parts of California. Mis- 

 taken by llentham and myself for a later and caulescent form of M. Douglasii, first and 

 well discriminated by Mrs. Layne- Curran. 



-i -! Ambiguous species, with corolla of Eunanus, and little exserted, but with oblique late- 

 dehiscent capsule of CEnoe. 



M. latifolius, GRAY, p. 274. Extra-limital. The capsule in plant raised from Palmer's 

 seeds appears to be only moderately oblique, linear-oblong, obtuse, and not indurated ; but 

 as now received from Mr. Greene, from its native habitat, and fully mature, it is lanceolate, 

 strongly oblique, and as if bent on its broad base ; the upper carpel much larger than the 

 other, very gibbous and sharp edged dorsally, and there very tardily dehiscent. 



3. EUXAXUS, Gray, Bot. Calif. Corolla from tubular-funnelform to nearly 

 campanulate, with either obscurely or manifestly bilabiate limb, the proper tube 

 either moderately exserted or included in the campanulate or oblong calyx : style 

 glandular-pubescent above : stigma usually peltate-fun nelform, obscurely 2-lobed 

 or entire : capsule symmetrical, from firm-chartaceous to menibranaceous, dehis- 

 cent by both sutures into two valves, which bear the separated placentae : low or 

 occasionally taller annuals, most of them glandular- or viscid-pubescent and 

 heavy-scented. 



* Corolla only a quarter-inch long, slender, only slightly exserted out of the broad and ventricose 

 calyx until elevated on the growing capsule: valves thin-chartaceous. 



M. Rattani, GRAY. Viscid-pubescent, a span or two high : leaves oblong ; upper about 

 equalling the sessile flowers : calyx very viscid, when fructiferous little higher than broad, 

 a little oblique at orifice, and with short ovate teeth : corolla rose-purple, its lobes barely a 

 line long, equal except that the upper are united to near the middle : capsule narrowly 

 ovate-lanceolate, nearly half exserted: seeds oblong-oval. Proc. Am. Acad. xx. 307. 

 Eunanus Rattani, Greene, Bull. Calif. Acad. i. 105. Lake and Colusa Co., California, 

 Rattan, Laijne-Curran. 



* * Corolla a quarter to three-fourths inch Ions', funnolform or narrower, well exserted beyond 

 the campanulate or oblong calyx: capsule-valves metnbranaceous or chartaceous: plants a span 

 or two high and brandling when luxuriant, when depauperate dwarf and simple, beginning to 

 blossom from near the root. 



H Calyx not manifestly oblique at orifice, but lower teeth usually a little shorter. (Species of 

 difficult discrimination.) 



M. mephitlCUS, GREENE. Very viscid-pubescent and strong-scented : leaves from ob- 

 bvate-oblong to nearly linear : calyx-teeth short, broadly lanceolate, acutish : corolla half to 

 two-thirds inch long and with somewhat bilabiate limb 4 or 5 lines broad, bright yellow, 

 often purple-dotted in the throat, sometimes whole throat or even the limb turning reddish : 

 seeds oval. Bull. Calif. Acad. i. 9. Eunanus mcphitlcus, Greene, Bull. Calif. Acad. i. 102. 

 Common in the Sierra Nevada from the Yosemite northward. 



M. nanus, HOOK. & ARX. Puberulent and somewhat viscid, or low and early-flowering 

 plants almost glabrous: leaves obovate and spatulate-oblong, all witli tapering base: calyx- 

 teeth broadly lanceolate or triangular, acutish or when outspread obtuse, but acute when 

 the tips are conduplicate, a quarter or a third the length of the oblong tube : corolla rose- 

 purple with darker or yellow throat, mostly two-thirds or three-fourths inch long ; the limb 

 half-inch or less wide, evidently bilabiate and the lower lip a little shorter than the upper: 

 seeds oval-oblong. (Supra, p. 274, excl. the yellow-flowered form and the var.) California 

 to interior of Washington Terr, and Wyoming, first coll. by Toimie. 



M. Bigelovii, GRAY, p. 274. Viscid pubescent, sometimes viscidly villous : leaves nearly of 

 the preceding or more acute, the upper ovate and acuminate: calyx-teeth triangular and 

 acuminate or subulate-acute, about half the length of the tube : corolla crimson, sometimes 

 with a yellow eye, three-fourths inch long when well developed, narrow up to the abruptly
