TWO NEW CEUCIFER^. 



By Edward L. Greene. 



Thelypodium amplifolium. Biennial, 2 to 5 feet high, 

 rather slender, somewhat paniculately racemose above, 

 glabrous and very glaucous throughout: radical leaves 6 

 to 12 inches long including the very distinct and rather 

 slender petiole, the lamina elliptic to obovate-lanceolate, 

 obtuse, entire, thin, with several pairs of rather prominent 

 veins; the cauline 2 or 3 inches long, of narrowly lanceo- 

 late outline, sessile by a deeply sagittate base: flowers in 

 several rather loose racemes; petals, lilac-purple, 4 or 5 

 lines, long, the lamina narrow, obtuse: fruiting racemes a 

 foot long; pods narrowly linear, abruptly slender-beaked by 

 a conspicuous style, about 2 inches long, slightly curved up- 

 wards on spreading pedicels of an inch long or less. 



A fine large showy species, found by the writer in Pine 

 Valley, Nevada, 25 July, 1896. The soil in which it grows 

 is moist and rather strongly alkaline. The large radical 

 leaves are most unlike those of any other Thelypodium. 



Staiileya Ibipinnata. Perennial, rather low, seldom 2 feet 

 high, the stem flexuous, very leafy: herbage very glaucous 

 and pale, sparsely pubescent with stiffish straight or curved 

 short hairs : leaves of ovate outline, bipinnately divided into 

 exceedingly numerous but remote small segments, or those 

 next the inflorescence simply pinnate: racemes short-pedun-
