near Carson City, Dr. Torrey, (83 and 83 a,) from AVashoe and Donncr Lakes, 
and from Burke in Southern Idaho, may belong to this species, but are more 
probably distinct. Stems slender, 1-2° high, branching, sparingly pubes- 
cent ; leaflets 7-9, oblanceolate, about equaling the petioles, (2—3' long, 
4-6" wide,) acute, glabrous above, subpubescent beneath; racemes loose, 
6- 12' long; bracts setaceous, hairy; flowers subverticillate ; lips of the 
calyx nearly equal in length, somewhat silky, nearly entire; ix'luls equal,

LuPiNUS AEGENTEUS, Pursh. (Including L. laxijlorm, \i\\\JoUosus, T. & G.) 
Distinguished from the last only by the less saccate calyx and th(> somewhat 
smoother or even glabrous upper surface of the leaflets. Souk; of ihe speci- 
mens are of this character, but others seem to unite tlu; two species, aud leave 
httle doubt that they must be reduced to one. Clover ]\Iou]itaius, Nevada,
