Mr. Rydberg has noted two forms or varieties of Physalis be- 

 longing to the lanceolata group but differing enough from P. lan- 

 ceolata to be distinct. I give below his descriptions in brief: — 



No. 1. Glabrous or minutely hirsute on the calyx and the angles 

 of the stems, erect, branched above; corolla yellowish with darker 

 spot, only 5-7 lines across; anthers yellow; fruiting calyx in- 

 versely pear shaped; fruit greenish yellow; leaves lanceolate, 

 sparingly toothed. " Sand draws," Deuel and Banner Co.'s July, 

 1890 (Rydberg). 



No. 2. Slender, ascending; leaves oblong, lauceolate to oblan- 

 ceolate, entire; calyx hispid; corolla, anthers, aud fruit like the 

 preceding; fruiting calyx globose. Near Pumpkin Seed Creek, 

 Banuer Co., Aug. 1890 (Rydberg).
