478 BOTANICAL GAZETTE [DECEMBER 
This is allied to C. mevadensis (Kell.) Gray and C. Evermannii Greene, but 
both of these are dwarf alpine plants with monocephalous peduncles scarcely 
exceeding the leaves, which show a tendency to be more or less pedately parted 
and flabelliform. In both the leaves are white with tomentum (at least when 
young), and the achenes are densely silky-pubescent. 
Dedicated to the Supervisor of the Payette National Forest, G. B. MAIns, 
who is each year adding much to the knowledge of his district by the excellent 
specimens prepared by him and his associates. The type is no. D-34, from the 
Payette National Forest. 
‘ Tonestus linearis, n. sp.—Branches of caudex very slender, 
brown with remnants of dead petioles: leaves narrowly linear, 
slightly broadened upward, subacute, 3-nerved, minutely crisped- 
pubescent, 2-4 cm. long (including the petiole-like base): stems ~ 
very slender, few-leaved, about 10 cm. long: heads as high as 
broad; bracts linear, about 10 mm. long, subequal, softly herba- 
ceous, with narrow scarious margins, in two rows, with one or more 
looser outer ones: rays 10-15, broadly linear, a half longer than the 
disk; disk flowers more numerous: achene narrowly oblong- 
cylindric, minutely pubescent. 
This new species illustrates the generic characters perfectly, yet by its 
slenderly linear parts throughout is quite distinct from JT. pygmaeus and 
T. Lyallii. 
Secured by G. B. Marns, Supervisor Payette National Forest, 1912. 
/Balsamorrhiza rosea, n. sp.—Low, acaulescent from a short, 
thick warty root crowned with leaf bases: leaves somewhat cinere- 
ous with a rather long fine but stiff pubescence, including the short 
petioles 4-10 cm. long, irregularly pinnately divided, the broad 
short blunt divisions coarsely toothed: scapes few, monocephalous, 
the pubescence longer and looser than that of the leaves, about 1 
dm. high, bearing at base a pair of linear acute bracts 1 cm. long, 
with scarious clasping bases: heads 3-4 cm. broad, the very 
crowded persistent or very tardily deciduous rose or purplish rays 
oval, crenately and irregularly few-toothed at the summit, pubes- 
cent with long soft hair, especially on the prominent parallel veins 
beneath and around the short tube: bracts lanceolate, acute, rather 
loose, the outer shorter, densely ciliate with long glistening soft 
pubescence, that of the surface somewhat appressed: chaff of the 
receptacle broadly scarious-margined three-fourths of the length,
