SCROPHULARIACE.E. 445 



much dilated throat aud expanded slightly bilabiate limb, this half to three-fourths inch in 

 diameter aud rotately expanding : seeds oval to oblong. Belongs mainly to the southern 

 aud eastern parts of the iSierra Nevada, aud extends from the borders of Arizona to the 

 interior of Washington Terr. 



Var. OVatus. More rigid, a span to near a foot high, at length spicately flowered, all 

 the floral and eveu most of the lower cauliue leaves ovate from a broad base, closely sessile, 

 acutely apiculate-acuminate. Partly referred to M. nanus, partly to A/. Blyclovii, on p. 274. 

 W. Nevada ( Torre;/) and northward to the upper Columbia River, Neuius, Hall, Hotvell. 



M. W^hitneyi. An inch or two high, in pubescence aud foliage resembling the dwarf state 

 of M. nanus : calyx about 2 lines long, campauulate, with narrow lanceolate and acutish 

 teeth half the length of the tube : corolla with narrow tube (3 lines long) abruptly dilated 

 into the broadly obconical throat aud seemingly regular spreading limb (together 4 lines 

 high), the latter "yellow " or probably nearly white, the throat dark purple in 8 or 10 lon- 

 gitudinal blotches. M. nanus, var. bicolor, Gray, p. 275. Eunanus bicolor, Gray, Proc. Am. 

 Acad vii. 381 ; Greene, 1. c. 103. Too scantily known only by specimens gathered on high 

 sierras in Fresno Co., by Brewer, in the Geological Survey under Whitney, whose name it 

 may bear. 



M. Fremonti, GRAY, p. 275. At length a span or two high, from glabrate to soft-villous or 

 tomeutulose, not glandular and little viscid : leaves from narrowly oblong tospatulate or lan- 

 ceolate : calyx-teeth short and broadly triangular or ovate, obtuse to acutish : corolla crimson, 

 comparatively large, trumpet-shaped, being narrowly tubular-funnelform up to the abruptly 

 spreading almost regular limb, this half to three-fourths inch in diameter : seeds oval. 

 Common only in Southern California. Parish finds a white-flowered variation. 



* -1 Calyx decidedly oblique at orifice, ovate in outline, at least in fruit, and strongly plicate- 

 angled: corolla narrow. 



M. SUbsecundus. Viscid-pubescent, diffusely branched from the base, the at length 

 elongated branches bearing spicately disposed flowers chiefly turned to one side : leaves 

 oblong, short ; lower less than inch long, upper shorter than the ample (4 lines long and 3 

 broad) fruiting calyx : teeth of the latter all similar, deltoid-ovate, acute, about a line long : 

 corolla "deep red," half-inch long, with narrow tube and throat abruptly dilated into the 

 nearly regular limb of 4 or 5 lines in diameter : capsule not exserted beyond the somewhat 

 contracted oblique orifice of the calyx : seeds ovate-oblong. In middle and western part 

 of California, near Mt. San Carlos in Fresno Co., Brewer, and on Pine Mountain back of 

 San Simeon Bay, Palmer. 



k 1 -t Calyx more or less oblique at orifice, or two lower teeth manifestly shorter and smaller, 



the tube open-campamdate or short-oblong: leaves all entire: flowers short-pedicelled or sub- 

 sessile. 



M. leptaleus, GRAY, p. 274. Small, an inch to a span high, viscid-puberulent or pubescent : 

 leaves spatulate-obloug to nearly linear : calyx 2 or 3 lines long ; the short teeth triangular- 

 subulate, lower narrower and moderately shorter, at length spreading : corolla crimson, 2 to 

 4 lines long and slender in depauperate plants, half-inch long when well grown, with gradu- 

 ally widening throat (in withering becoming filiform) and small moderately bilabiate limb : 

 capsule ovate to ovate lanceolate. Described originally from depauperate form of arid 

 places, with withering attenuate corollas, now known in other conditions along the whole 

 drier parts of the Sierra Nevada, coll. also in Lake Co. (Cumin) and Humboldt Co. (Rattan) 

 in more luxuriant state, with comparatively large flowers, the Eunanus Lai/neie, Greene, 

 Bull. Calif. Acad. i. 104. 



M. Parryi, GRAY, p. 275. Nothing to add, except a habitat, Mokiak Pass, S. Utah, Palmer, 

 and syn. Eunanus Parryi, Greene, 1. c. 



M. Torreyi, GRAY, p. 275. Eimnnns Tnm-i/i, Greene, 1. c. There are small forms of 

 M. Bolanderi which have been referred to this, in which the calyx-teeth are always short, 

 broad, and obtuse or rounded. 



* * * Corolla larger, more bilabiate, and ampliate in the throat: calyx (Imlf-inch to inch 

 long), with strongly plicate-angled tube, unequal and oblique; upper tootli much larger than 

 lower, all acute: very viscid, with erect and commonly simple stem 1 to 3 feet high, and salient- 

 denticulate leaves.
