100 University of California Puhlications . [botany 



The leaves are thinner than those of specimens from the northern 

 part of the state, lightly pubescent when young but soon 

 glabrate, as are the branchlets; fruit short-pedicellate, black, 

 early glabrate. (No. 2425.) 



Garrya Veatchii KelL, Proc. Calif. Acad. v. 40 (1873); G. & 

 E., Bot. Gaz. XV. 95 (1890); Parish, Zoe v. 73 (1900). 

 Not rare in the Upper Sonoran and Lower Transition zones 

 on the south side. On San Jacinto Mt., at least, this species is 

 very distinct from the last, both in habit and in technical 

 characters. It is a much taller and rigid, upright shrub with 

 coriaceous leaves densely tomentose beneath. (No. 2452.) 



PIROLACE^. 



Chimaphila Menziesii Spreng. Pipsissewa. 



This plant is very rare in Southern California and probably 

 reaches the southern limit of its range on San Jacinto Mt., where 

 it was found beneath the pines at several places between 5300 

 and 9500 ft. alt. (Nos. 646, 736.) 



Pterospora andromedea N^kU. Pinedrops. 



Occasional in pine and fir forests. (No. 2467.) 



Pyrola aphylla /S'/«. 



Collected in Dark Canon and also near Lake Surprise. (No. 

 811.) 



Pyrola picta Sm. White-veined Shin-leaf. 



Found only in the pine belt of the west side where it is not 

 common. San Jacinto Mt., is probably the southern limit of the 

 range of both this species and the last. 



Sarcodes sanguinea Torr. Snow Plant. 

 With the last, but much more frequent. 



ERICACE^. 



Arctostaphylos Manzanita Parry, Bull. Calif. Acad. ii. 491 



(1887). 



This species belongs to the chaparral belt but reaches up 

 among the pines of the south side even to the 6500-foot contour.
