404 Flora of the Cape Region. [zoE 



tube densely glandular-villoiis, lobes linear, rather longer than 

 the tube, pubescent, marked by oil-tubes, somewhat irregularly 

 cleft and thickened at tip; anthers very short, oval, somewhat 

 unequal at base, usually distinct, but sometimes 2 joined, less 

 than Yi mm. long, including the equally long appendage; style- 

 branches enlarged truncate and villous at tip. 



767. Dysodia anthemidifolia Benth. The segments of 

 the leaves are very broad and obtuse giving to the plant a very 

 different appearance from the Magdalena Bay specimens. — Along 

 the Coast below Pescadero. 



Pegtis Berlandieri DC. — El Taste near Sierra San La- 

 zaro. It is the same as Dr. Palmer's No. 61 (1885) from South- 

 western Chihuahua, excepting that the leaves are much broader. 



349. HiERACiUM ARGUTUM Nutt. (?) A high mountain 

 plant which may possibly prove distinct. 



768. ErEChtpiites runcinata DC. — In damp fields at 

 Santa Anita where it was probably introduced. 



769. BuMELiA angustifolia Nutt. — Small bushy trees 

 growing in the vicinity of Pescadero. No mature fruit was 

 found but the flowers, leaves, and habit are of this species. 



770. DiosPYROsTEXANAScheele. "Guayparin." Probably 

 a form of this species, but as no flowers could be found the determi- 

 nation is uncertain. It is a small tree and not uncommon along 

 the base of the mountains. The leaves are two or three inches 

 long and vary on different trees from glabrous to tomentose; the 

 fruit about an inch in diameter is black when ripe and very 

 pleasant to the taste. 



771. FoRESTiERA MACROCARPA. A shrub or small tree, 

 2-6 m. high, glabrous: leaves entire, of thin texture, elliptical 

 or oblong-ovate, cuneate at base, acutish or obtuse, 2-3 cm. 

 long, on peduncles 4-5 mm. long: drupes solitary or few in clus- 

 ters, oblong, 12-15 ii^m. long, dark blue; pedicels about as long 

 as petioles; putamen curved, striate. 



This species is related to F. pubescens and to?nentosa but 

 differs irom both by having thinner, glabrous leaves and larger 

 fruit. The putamen is striate like that of F. pubescens and the 

 leaves as entire as those of F. tomoiiosa. — Found in fruit only.
