This plant of Guadalupe Island I have not seen. Should 

 its capsules appear dehiscent, its place would be in the fol- 

 lowing section, which it must resemble in its branching 

 habit and short corolla-tube. 



§ 2. Eunanus, proper. Corolla from tubular-funnelform to 

 nearly campanulate, in all but the first species having its tube 

 short, and the lower lip the larger: capsule from coriaceous to 

 membranaceous, partially dehiscent, or in a few species com- 

 pletely so, from oblong to linear, obtuse, acute or acuminate, 

 almost always surpassing the calyx; at base often slightly gibbous. 



Viscid, ill-scented, branching annuals, mostly confined to the 

 mountain districts of California and Western Nevada, and 

 flowering in summer. Flowers purple, without yellow spots, 

 but in two of the species clear yellow. 



* Corolla with long tube. 



E. Kelloggii, Curran in herb. 



Stem 3 — 10 inches high: leaves ovate to lanceolate, 3 — 5- 

 nerved, entire, or the lower denticulate: slender tube of 

 corolla an inch or more long; throat strictly funnelforin; 

 upper lip of 2 ample, ascending lobes; the lower, half as 

 large with three sinuate, shallow ones: capsules linear, ob- 

 tuse, a half inch long, slightly curved outwardly, nearly ter- 

 ete, bisulcate, dehiscent by the upper suture: seeds oval, mi- 

 nutely granular. 



A most beautiful plant, common in May and June through- 

 out the middle portions of the State, and heretofore strangely 

 confounded by all authors with E. Douglasit. It is later 

 flowering by several weeks than that species, and very widely 

 different from it in the characters of both flower and fruit, as 

 well as in its much larger size and branching habit. Bota- 

 nists are wholly indebted to Mrs. M. K. Curran for the long 

 needed separation now effected. The species is dedicated 

 by her to our venerated friend Dr. Albert Kellogg, who also 

 appears to have confounded this plant with E. Douglasii in 

 his 3Iimulus atropurpureus, although his beautiful colored 

 drawing represents plainly the former species. We have the
