VOL. IV.] Plants Collected in Southeastern Utah. 125 



to oblanceolate, five to eight cm. long by one cm. wide; slightly 

 wavy; stem leaves far apart, about eight cm. between the lowest 

 pairs, less above, oblong, sessile by a clasping base, diminishing 

 upwards; flowers in an interrupted loosely and few flowered 

 thyrse; calyx small, divisions abruptly pointed and thicker at 

 the apex; corolla funnel form, two cm. long, lobes large, orbicular 

 and spreading, three to five mm. broad, carmine; two stamens 

 inserted at the base of the carolla; the others even with the 

 sterile filament which is hooked at the glabrous end; style 

 broadening to the paddle-shaped stigma and to the pointed 

 ovary. 



Were it not for the tip of the sterile filament this would 

 unhesitatingly be placed with P. Parryi, but if that distinction 

 is worth anything it must belong to the next group near P. 

 grandiflorus which it is as unlike in all the other characteristics 

 whereby it resembles /L Parryi. It is a beautiful and showy 

 plant. The very glaucous foliage softens the bright carmine 

 flowers which are velvety in texture and of beautiful shape with 

 the round evenly spreading lobes of the funnel form corolla. It 

 was collected between Hatch's Wash and Monticello, May 28, 

 1892; also on the San Juan River near where McElmo Creek 

 enters. 



111. Aphyllon multifx,orum Gray. Along McElmo 

 Creek, June, 1892. 



112. PoLiOMiNTHA INCANA Gray. This was collected in 

 Court House Wash on the Sandy Flat near the Grand River. 

 It has a large prostrate woody stem and usually forms a knoll, 

 from the sand collecting around its firm base. The numerous 

 branches are slender and erect; the foliage is silvery canescent 

 and the flowers a lovely blue. It has a sweet perfume.

 Canon.
