nmon, Greene, Mrs. Austin).'' I have seen all the specimens in her- 

 barium Bebb, of the Field Museum. Brewer's plant (No. 7192 in C; No. 

 2788 of Brewer, '' about Mt. Brewer ") is not identical with the type because 

 this is said to have '* grayish-tomentose " capsules, the ovaries however of 

 Brewer's plant are glabrous, a fact noted also by Bebb in his remarks in 

 pencil on the sheet (" capsule glabrous, stigmas entire, pedicel short scarcely 

 exceeding the glands, leaves of the peduncle glandular-serrulate, stipules 

 more so*'). On the other hand, Brewer's No. 2162, near Donner Pass, 

 August 27, 1875. (No, 7191 in C.) is typical sterile S. Eastwoodiae. The 

 same sheet bears Bolander's No. 633G, Mono Trail, about 3300 m., August 

 23, 1886, No. 7381 in C. It is a form more like f. callicoma (see later) 



than the type. 



Lemmon's specimens which are named by Bebb himself S. californica, 

 which is not the case in the specimens of Brewer and Bolander, consist of 

 5 sheets; one, No. 7783 in C, bears a reprint of Bebb's diagnosis, and it 

 agrees in every respect with it, so that I take this sheet for the type. With 

 it are identical sheets, Nos. 7782 (fr.), 7781 (m., fr. juv.), 3689 (m.) and 3700 

 (fr.); No. 3699, however, is much more like S. orcstera, Greene's No. 457, 

 Sierra Nevada, 3000 m. by a streamlet near perpetual snow, October 14, 

 1874, named by Bebb S. californica (sheet No. 4350 in C.) is typical, but 

 the leaves are similar to those of S. orestera. 



As to the name, I think it best to adopt Cockerell's new name. Accord- 

 ing to the International Rules there may be a doubt whether a name has 

 to be changed on account of an older one used for a paleontological species. 

 Sooner or later, however, we shall need a list also of these names, and then 



we certainly shall avoid their use. 



S. Eastwoodiae seems to be very closely related to S. commutata and the 

 main characters to distinguish these two species are the pubescence of the 

 filaments, the normally hairy ovaries, and the closer more distinct glandular 

 serration of at least the lowermost and middle leaves; besides this S. East-
