SMITH: STUDIES IN THE GENUS LUPINUS 17. 
flowers are evidently far from being showy. It is probably very 
local and rare and should be carefully studied in the field. 
OREGON. Crook County: near Prineville, 955 m. alt., 1894, 
J. B. Letberg 317 (Type, US 291134; type-duplicates, G, US

Ad basin ramosus; foliis aliquantum congestis, foliolis gracil-

Fic. 12. LupINUSSUBVEXUSINSULARISC. P.Smith. T. S. Brandegee (UC82003),. 
Much branched near the base, foliage congested, leaflets slender 
and 2—3 cm. long; racemes several with the flowers spreading in 
anthesis but ascending soon afterwards, bracts reflexing as the 
flower-buds open, the bracts, petioles and pedicels loosely villous; 
calyx densely villous; keel distinctly curved. 
CALIFORNIA. “Santa Cruz Island: Apr., 1888, T. S. Brandegee 
(Type, UC 82003). 
Mounted on the sheet with the above specimen are some small

them at this time.
