the southern part of California to the borders of British 

 Columbia, but it is not found to the eastward of the Sierra 

 Nevada, nor, in California at least, in the coast ranges of 

 mountains. The principal collectors of the specimens are 

 the following: Brewer, 1863, No. 2114; Bolander, I860, No. 

 6311; Torrey, 1865, No. 373; Kothrock, 1875, No. 410; 

 Parry & Lemmon, 1876, No. 312; Mrs. Curran, 1883; Parish 

 Brothers, 1884, No. 1378; Oregon, Howell; Washington 

 Territory, Suksdorf . In all these collections the plant has 

 been named Mimulus rubrilus, from which if the two were of 

 the same genus, the viscid-glandular pubescence, the short, 

 red, subregulir corollas, the only half dehiscent capsules, 

 and the oval, smooth seeds, would abundantly distinguish it. 

 But we have in the habit, pubescence with resinous viscosity, 

 and only partially dehiscent capsule, a true Eunanus; and as 

 Mimulus rubellus diverges from the other Mimuli by separa- 

 ted placentae, so Eunanus Breweri is aberrant from its con- 

 veners in having them firmly united below the middle. 



E. Bigelovii, Gray. 



Viscid and more or less glandular-villous: leaves ovate to 

 oblong, acute, often with a few coarse teeth: calyx-teeth 

 acutely subulate from a broad base, a third as long as the 

 tube which is broadly campanulate : throat of corolla cylin- 

 draceous; the limb rotate, crimson: capsule oblong-lanceo- 

 late, acute, well exceeding the calvx; the valves membrana- 

 ceous: seeds oblong-linear, minutely and irregularly reticu- 

 lated. — Pac. E. Rep. IV. 121. Mimulus Bigelovii, Gray, 1. c. 



Southern part of California and the regions adjacent, to 

 S. Utah. 



E. mephiticus. 



Stout, or rather slender, 2 — 5 inches high, simple or much 

 branched from the base, viscid and diffusing a strong, me- 

 phitic odor: leaves obovate to lanceolate, \ — 1 inch long: 

 calyx teeth triangular-lanceolate, one fourth as long as the 

 tube, the obtuse capsule a little exceeding them: corolla 

 deep yellow, the tube slender and long exserted; the limb
