NEW OR LITTLE-KNOWN PLANTS OF 

 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.— II. 



By S. B. Parish. 



PiNus Parryana, Engelm. Am. Jour. Sci. Ser. 2, xxxiv. 332. 

 This Lower California pine has been discovered by Mr. H. M. 

 Hall on the desert slope of Santa Rosa Mountain, where it exists 

 in considerable quantity at about 5,000 feet altitude. Santa Rosa 

 Mountain is a southern continuation of the San Jacinto Mountains, 

 and is within the boundaries of Riverside County. It and the 

 adjoining El Toro Mountain constitute an interesting region, which 

 Mr. Hall has been almost the only botanist to explore. Specimens 

 of this pine reported * as collected in the San Jacinto Mountains by 

 Mr. R. H. Asher, probably came from this station, since it may be 

 regarded as certain that it does not exist in the San Jacinto Moun- 

 tains proper. Mr. Hall also observed a single tree on Nigger Jim 

 Hill, between Hemet and Coahuilla, in the intramontane region.

Dr. Vasey proposed his E. Orcuttiana on the plant of Mr. Orcutt 

 and my own No. 2484. The latter was a wayside- waif which has not 

 reappeared. My Santa Ana plants were growing along an irriga-
