 near the Santa Rita copper mines, Wrujht, Bii/elouJ (and south into Chilmahua, Biyelow). 

 Habit of P. congesta, &c. Corolla nearly 3 lines long, narrow. Capsule 3 lines long. 

 -1— H— Leaves simply pinnatifid; tlie lobes short and obtuse. 

 ++ Flowers crowded in at length elongated spikes : corolla small, white or nearly so. 

 P. brach:^loba, Gray. A foot or two high, erect, roughish-pubescent, viscid-glandular 

 above : leaves elongated-oblong or spatulate, short-petioled ; the 7 to 15 lobes entire or 

 obtusely few-toothed : spikes solitary or geminate, at length much elongated and slender: 

 pedicels very short : corolla campanulate ; the lobes about half the length of the tube ; its 

 long and narrow appendages nearly free from the stamens : ovules about (3 on each pla- 

 centa: style 2-cleft above the middle: capsule oblong-oval, very obtuse, membranaceous, 

 shorter than the narrow spatulate calyx-lobes : seeds oval, reticulated. —Proc. Am. Acad. 

 X. 324, & Bot. Calif. 1. c. Eutoca brachijhhn, Benth. 1. c — California, near Monterey and 

 Santa Barbara (Douglas, Brewer, Torreij), to San Diego Co. (Cleveland) and the Mohave 

 region, Palmer. 



-H- ++ Flowers loosely racemose, long-pedicelled : corolla (blue or purple or varying to white) open- 

 campanulate, twice the length of the calyx ; the appendages elongated, nearly free from the base 

 of the usually sparsely bearded filaineut : low and diffuse, a span or less high, with the leaves 

 mostly at or near the base. 

 P. Douglasii, Torr. Diffuse, pubescent and hirsute with mostly spreading hairs: leaves 

 elongated-oblong or linear in outline, pinnatifid or pinnately parted into several or numer- 

 ous pairs of lobes ; the terminal lobe not larger nor parallel-veined : racemes at lengtli 

 elongated : pedicels filiform, mostlj^ longer than the fiower : calyx-lobes spatulate : append- 

 ages to the tube of the ample corolla semi-oblanceolate : style 2-cleft above the middle : 

 ovules to each dilated placenta 12 to 14 : capsule ovate, mucronate : seeds roundish-oval, 

 scrobiculate. — Bot. Mex. Bound. 143 ; Gray, 1. c. Eutoca Douglasii, Benth. 1. c. — California, 

 apparently rather common in the western part of the State south of Monterey. Habit 

 somewhat of Nemophila insignis. Pedicels half an inch to an inch long, spreading. Corolla 

 generally half an inch high, and proportionally broad when expanded. 

 P. Davidsonii, Gray. Resembles the preceding, but more hairy and hoary, the foliage 

 with strigose, the racemes and calyx with villous-hirsute and spreading pubescence: leaves 

 deei)ly pinnatifid into 2 to 4 triangular entire lateral lobes and a much larger oblong ter- 

 minal one, the evident veins of which are nearly parallel with the midrib (in the manner 

 of P. humilis and of the succeeding) ; some of the upper leaves occasionally entire : pedi- 

 cels seldom longer than the fructiferous calyx, in age inclined to be recurved-ascending or 

 sigmoid : calyx-lobes narrowly spatulate : appendages to the tube of the corolla semi-oval : 

 ovules to each placenta 8 or 10. — Proc. Am. Acad. x. 324, & Bot. Calif, i. 510, a depau- 

 perate and sinall-fiowered form. — California, in Kern Co., Prof. Daridson, the small form 

 above mentioned. San Bernardino Co., a larger form, with flowers fully the size of P. 

 Do'iglasii, and limb or lobes of the corolla bright purple, Parrg and Lemmon. 

 ^— -H- -1— Leaves entire (or the lower rarely l-2-l(ibod or toothed), pefiolcd, not fleshy nor cordate, 

 the veins somewhat parallel or converging: pul)escence not glandular : flowers s])icate-racemose : 

 calyx hirsute or hispid with long sprfadiug hairs: appendages of the tube of the corolla broader 

 at base and uniUul willi the i)ase of the (usually pul)escent or sparsely bearded) filaments : capsule 

 ovate, acute or mucrouate, G-10-seeded, nuich shorter than the linear or linear-spatulate enlarging 

 calyx-lobes: seed with favose-pitted or scrobiculate testa. 

 ++ Corolla narrow, somewhat funnclform, little longer than the calyx, apparently pale or white, 

 much exceeding tli(^ stamens. 

 P. circinatiformis, Gray, 1. c. Erect, a span or so high, hispid and puborulent : leaves 

 ovate and oblong-lanceolate, parallel-veined, somewhat strigose-hispid : racemes or spikes 

 dense: style 2-cleft above the middle: ovules 4 (or rarely more) to each placenta. — Eutoca 

 phucelioides, Benth. 1. c. — California, Douglas (from whose collection only is the species yet 

 known), probably from the vicinity of Monterey. Aspect of a small form of P. circinata. 

 Corolla 2^ to 3 lines long. Fruiting calyx 5 lines long.
