Plant annual, glabrous below the sparsely glandular-pubescent inflorescence, 1.5-3 dm. tall, 

 simple or somewhat branched. Leaf-blades oblanceolate-oblong, rounded, reaching 1-2 cm. long, 

 narrowed to short petioles ; inflorescence distally a secund raceme, the lower flowers remote and 

 on pedicels becoming 2-5 mm. long; sepals dissimilar, the uppermost linear-oblong, 4 mm. long, 

 the others linear-lanceolate, 2 mm. long; corolla 5-7 mm. long, whitish with purple veins, 

 externally pubescent, its basal pouch shallow and rounded, wider than deep, its lips equal, the 

 upper ascending, the lower with a medianly finely villose palate (not closing orifice) and with 

 deflexed-decurved lobes; anthers dark violet; capsule 3-4 mm. long, glabrescent; seeds 0.5 mm. 

 long, lined with thin and somewhat broken wing-ridges. 



Calcareous gravelly desert. Upper Sonoran Zone; Interior Plateau, southeastern Oregon to eastern Cali

Plant annual, glandular-pubescent throughout, diffusely ascending, 4-12 dm. tall, much- 

 branched. Lower leaf-blades ovate, acute, reaching 2-3 cm. long, rounded to short petioles, the 

 upper blades smaller, rounded at apex and often cordate at base; inflorescence loosely racemose 

 (with foliose bracts), the pedicels 3-20 mm. long; sepals lanceolate, acute, the uppermost 4-5 

 mm. long, the others 2-3 mm. long; corolla 8-10 mm. long, violet, externally finely pubescent, 

 its basal pouch pale, shallow and rounded, wider than deep, the tube beneath pale and violet- 

 lined but distally yellow, its upper lip ascending-erect and dark violet, its lower lip longer, with 

 large violet-reticulate glabrous palate (closing orifice), from which depend the violet lobes; 

 anthers dark, with white pollen; capsule 7-8 mm. long, finely glandular-pubescent; seeds 0.5 mm. 

 long, blackish, with many narrow wing-ridges. 



Sandy or rocky soil, Lower and Upper Sonoran Zones; near the coast from Santa Barbara County to San 

 Bernardino and San Diego Counties, southern California, southward into northern Lower California; also in

10. Antirrhinum subcordatum A. Gray. Dimorphic Snapdragon. Fig. 4777. 



Antirrhinum subcordatum A. Gray, Proc. Amer. Acad. 20: 306. 1885. 



Plant annual, glandular-hairy, the stem hirsute-pubescent, the leaves, pedicels, and sepals 

 with shorter gland-tipped hairs and also pilose with long glandless hairs, the stem diffusely 

 ascending, 3-8 dm. tall, with slender horizontally spreading tortile branches that are bare except 

 for a few small leaves near apex. Leaf-blades ovate, obtuse-rounded, reaching 2-2.5 cm. long, 

 rounded to the very short petioles ; inflorescence a foliose secund raceme, the pedicels becoming 

 2-3 mm. long ; sepals dissimilar, the uppermost elliptic to ovate-oblong, rounded, 10-12 mm. long, 

 the others lanceolate, attenuate, 8 mm. long; corolla 13-16 mm. long, presumably violet-purple, 

 externally pilose, its basal pouch low, wider than deep, its upper lip ascending-erect, its lower 

 lip longer, with large projecting densely puberulent to finely pubescent palate (closing orifice), 

 from which depend the short lobes ; capsule 6-7 mm. long, glandular-pubescent ; seeds alveolate- 

 reticulate. 



Upper Sonoran Zone; Glenn County, perhaps also Calaveras County, central California. Type locality: 

 "Stony Creek, Colusa [apparently now in Glenn] Co., California." June. 



11. Antirrhinum ovatum Eastvi'. Oval-leaved Snapdragon. Fig. 4778.

Plant annual, glandular-hairy, the stem hirsute-pubescent with glandless hairs among which 

 are densely interspersed shorter gland-tipped ones, the pedicels, leaves, and sepals also glandular- 

 pubescent, the stems ascending, 4 dm. tall, with ascending leafy floriferous branches. Leaf-blades 

 rounded, those of the main stem oblong to oval, reaching 3 cm. long, narrowed to short petioles, 

 but those of the branches ovate and truncate to very short petioles ; inflorescence foliose, the 

 pedicels 1-2 mm. long; sepals dissimilar, the uppermost elliptic-oval, rounded, becoming 15 mm. 

 long, the others lanceolate, 5-7 mm. long ; corolla 22-23 mm. long, purplish, externally hairy, its 

 basal pouch prominent and forming a short spur 1.5 mm. deep, its upper lip ascending-recurved,
