A co-type of this s])ecies has been placed in the Herbarium 

 of the University of California. 



The following- are in my own licrbarium : 



' "Z. lafifolia Greene. Arrovo Seco, San CalMdel Mts. Cieo. 

 L. Aloxley. 281." 



Leaves lanceolate, nearl_\- entire, some fainth denticulate, 

 covered with a dense mat of short soft wliite hairs. 



^ "Z. lafifolia Greene. Strawberrv Peak. San Galiriel AFts., 

 elev., 61.S0 ft. July 23, 1015. Geo. L. Moxley 423." 



\'er}- tomentose with long- white hairs, covered with white, 

 stalked glands : leaves sharply serrate. 



^ "Z. Californica Presl. Sawpit Canvon, San Galiriel Mts.. 

 Sept. f), 1Q15. Geo. L. Moxley 444." 



Leaves much fascicled, small and very narrow, grav with 

 a minute appressed tomentum. 



i^ "Z. Californica Presl. Hills near S«juthwest Museum, Los 

 Angeles, Cal. Oct. 12, 1015. Geo. L. Moxley 452." 



This specimen differs from those in the Herbarium of the 

 So. Cal. Academy of Sciences only in somewhat shorter and 

 broader leaves. The gray-green appressed tomentum, short 

 brown nmcro, and i)rominent midril) are identical. This plant 

 has been attacked l)y some insect which causes the formation of 

 rosettes of broader thinner leaves resembling" a small green rose- 

 bud. I have frequently noticed this on Zaiisclmcria near Los 

 Angeles. 



^ My sincere thanks are flue Dr. A. Davidson, Mr. S. L. 

 Parish, Mr. F. \\\ Peirson. and Mr. H. S. Swarth for the ex- 

 tended loan of specimens from their herbaria, without which 

 even this brief study would have been impossible.
