802 PROCEEDINGS OP THE AMERICAN ACADEMY 



in Macomb's expedition, and named by Torrey G. Macomhli^ Is the 

 same. This name should therefore come into use, now that the three 

 species which I had confounded may be made out, thanks to food 

 specimens collected by Lcmmon in 1880 and 1882, and by Prinnle in 

 1884, these all in the southern part of Arizona, while Newberry's 

 specimen is probably from farther north. In Proc. Am. Acad. xvii. 

 223, I have assigned the reasons for referring all of CoUomia group 

 back to Gilia. This species is more showy than the two following, 

 but less so than G. TImrberi, Gray, 1. c, with its corollas an inch and 

 a half long, which has been collected by Greene in 1881, Lemmon in 

 1882, and Pringh in 1884. 



Gilia glomeuiflora, Benth. in DC. Prodr., so far as we know- 

 wholly JMexican, has more filiform foliage, smaller and whitish corollas 

 with pointless lobes, and the stamens wholly included and almost or 

 quite equally inserted ; but the last character cannot be absolutely 

 trusted. 



GiMA MULTIFLORA, Nutt. PI. Gamb., or the plant which from the 

 station and the description I take to be this species (being New Mexi- 

 can as well as Arizonian, and occurring in most collections, and 

 probably not perennial), has the foliage and habit of G. Macombii, or 

 perhaps is more branching, is more pubescent, and the calyx hirsute ; 

 the purplish limb of the corolla somewhat unequally divided (i. e. one 

 sinus deeper) ; its lobes narrower ; the stamens of equal or unequal 

 insertion, conspicuously exserted, and the upper part of the filaments 

 more or less declined and curved, often conspicuously so. I find the 

 ovules to vary from one pair to two pairs in each cell. 



LcESELiA (GiLiOPSis) GUTTATA. L. tcmiifoUce pcrafhnis, pariter 

 suffrutescens, glabra ; corolla lllacina vel pallida lobis purpureo-gut- 

 tatis angusto-cuneatis apice tridentatis stamina icqunutibus tubo (semi- 

 poll icari) paullo brevioribus. — Near Hanson's Ranch, northern part 

 of Lower California, C. R. Orciitt, Sept. 1884. 



Ellisia (Eucrtpta) Torreyi. Diffusa, debilis; foliis pinnati- 

 partitis segmentis oblongis sinuato-pinnatifidis vel crenatis, inferioribus 

 s:rpe bipinnatifidis ; racemis paucifloris ; calyce corollara parvam 

 frqnante, fructifero capsulam superante. — Yampai Valley, on the 

 Lower Colorado (P/iacelia mici'antha ? var. hipinnatijida, Torr. in 

 Ives Colorado Rep. Bot. 21) ; and along the borders of Sonora and 

 Arizona, Pmigle, 1884. Imperfect specimens of this had been passed 

 as a form of Phacelia micrantha . 



Phacelia Rattani. Enphacelia^ P. malvcefoUce perafTniis, minor, 

 gracilis, setis tenuioribus sed urentibus hispida ; foliis ovatis ovalibiisque
