424 COMPOS IT JE. 



branched, the heads nearly all terminal upon slender branchlets: acheue 

 of the solitary ray very short: disk-flowers 3, each almost enclosed by 

 its proper receptacular bract, and these 3 wholly distinct and with acute 

 somewhat recurved tip; disk-acheues prismatic, hirsute, all their paleae 

 acuminate. — Near Lakeport, Lake Co. C. G. Pringle, Aug. 1882. 



62. DEINANDRA. Hartmannia, DC. (1836), as to his type species, 

 not of Spach (1835). Plants erect, rigid and brittle, balsamic-viscid, 

 with mostly small few-flowered panicled heads. Leaves entire, or 

 serrate. Tips of the few involucral bracts short, rigid, erect. Rays 

 about 5, broad, 3-toothed, diurnal. Receptable chaffy only next the 

 rays. Ray-achenes gibbous, tuberculate-rugose, the terminal areola 

 raised upon a distinct curved beak from the angle of the inner face of 

 the achene. A paleaceous pappus crowning the mostly sterile disk- 

 achenes, in some species. — A natural genus, well established by the 

 illustrious De Candolle; though the name assigned by him was pre- 

 occupied. 



* Receptacle chaffy only next to the rays; disk-ovaries icith a pappus. 



1. D. fasciculata. Hartmannia fasciculata, DC. Prodr. v. 693 



(1836); T. & G. Fl. ii. 397 (1843), under Hernizonia. Hirsute or hispid 

 below, glabrous and viscid-glandular above, 6 — 18 in. high: heads small 

 subsessile, usually faciculate-clustered: involucral bracts glabrous or 

 glandular-hispidulous, those of the receptacle slightly uuited: pappus 

 of disk-ovaries of 6 — 10 linear palese. — Hills of the Mt. Diablo Range, 

 near Walnut Creek and Livermore, thence far southward. June — Aug. 



2. D. Wrightii. Hernizonia Wrightii, Gray, Proc. Am. Acad. xix. 

 17 (1883). Slender, diff"usely and widely branching; the filiform branch- 

 lets terminating in a single head; lower leaves laciniate-pinnatifid: disk- 

 ovaries with pappus of 8 or 9 oblong firm palese. — Native of San Ber- 

 nardino Co., but found on the Oakland mole in 1881; at that time a 

 species still undescribed. It has not reappeared in this last named 

 district. 



3. U. Kelloggii. Hernizonia Kelloggii, Greene, Bull. Torr. Club. x. 

 41 (1883). Hirsute below, loosely paniculate above, 1 — 3 ft. high, the 

 heads on slender pedicels: lower leaves pinnately parted: involucre 3^ 

 in. high; bracts glandular on the back: ray-achenes with a slender 

 curved beak; pappus of the sterile ones of the disk long, almost equal- 

 ing the corolla, lacerately truncate and united into a tiabe from base 

 almost to summit. — Abundant in fields of grain on the lower San 

 Joaquin from Antioch southward. Aiig., Sept.
