78. Malacothrix Torreyi Gray. Common throughout

 along the San Juan River. 



82. Fraxinus anomala Torr. Court House Wash. 



83. Amsonia brevifolia Gray. On the hillsides at Moab. 



84. AscLEPiAS CRYPTOCERAS Watson. This beautiful 

 Asclepias was occasionally seen on the sides of washes. It is not 

 common. 



85. Asclepias involucrata Engelm. var tomentosa n. 

 var. This differs from the description of the species and from speci- 

 mens in the Herbarium of the California Academy of Sciences in 

 the following characters: Tomentose throughout, leaves ovate- 

 lanceolate, acuminate, sometimes orbicular; margins wavy and 

 densely tomentose from 3 to 7 cm. long and from i to 2 cm. broad 

 at base. Umbel closely sessile with involucral leaves, densely 

 white-tomentose and linear-lanceolate. There is, however, but 

 little or no difiference in the flowers. It grew along Court House 

 Wash and the San Juan River near McElmo Creek, and was 

 alike in both localities. 



86. Frasera albomarginata Watson. This was seen 

 growing on a pinon covered mesa along Montezuma Creek. It 

 also grows in the same kind of a place on Mesa Verde in south- 

 western Colorado. It was not yet in bloom. 



87. Frasera panicueata Torr. (?) This was not collected 

 as the plants were not yet in bloom. It was tall, loosely and 

 paniculately branched and the memory of its appearance agrees
