ABRAMS: FLORA OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA 151 
The type was collected by the writer (3376) in dry chaparral-cov- 
ered hills, near San Dieguito (Bernardo), May 4, 1903. 
The type sheet of this species, as well as those of the follow- 
ing new species, is deposited in the herbarium of the Leland 
Stanford Jr. University. 
» Amelanchier recurvata sp. nov. 
Low spreading shrub, 1~1.5 meters high; branches slender, 
spreading and more or less drooping, their bark reddish brown; 
leaves mostly broadly oblong, 15~25 mm. long, distinctly serrate 
on the rounded or truncate summit, sparsely tomentulose on both 
surfaces ; veins in 7 or 8 pairs, prominent; petioles slender, 4-6 mm. 
long ; racemes 4—7-flowered ; pedicels nearly or quite glabrous, 
reddish ; calyx glabrous without at flowering time, its lobes 
sharply acute, 3 mm. long, strongly recurved, villous within ; 
petals oblanceolate, 10 mm. long, rounded at the apex, 3.5-4 
mm. broad. [FicurE I. ] 
Amelanchier recurvata has the foliage aspect of A. venulosa, 
but is distinguished by its slender, spreading habit, its more 
glabrous foliage and inflorescence, and by its larger flowers. 
Topatopa Mountains, altitude 5500 feet, Ventura County,

‘ Lupinus Hallii sp. nov. 
Shrubby, 6-10 dm. high; herbage canescent with a short 
appressed silky pubescence; leaflets 7-9, spatulate, 12-24 mm. 
long ; petioles slender, 2.5—4.5 cm. long ; peduncles 20-25 mm. 
long ; flowers mostly in whorls 2~3 cm. distant; bracts ovate- 
lanceolate, acuminate, caducous, 7 mm. long; calyx-lobes I cm. 
long, the upper 2-lobed (lobe 2 mm. long), the lower 3-toothed ; 
standard 15 mm. long, nearly orbicular; wings 15 mm. long, 8 
mm. broad, completely enclosing the keel ; keel strongly falcate, 
5 mm. broad at the angle, conspicuously ciliate on the central part 
of the inner margins; pod about 4 cm. long, silky-pubescent, 5- 
or 6-seeded. [FIGURE 2. 
Distinguished from L. a/bifrons, which seems to be confined to 
central California, by the size of the flower and the structure of the 
calyx. JL. albifrons has petals scarcely 10 mm. long, the lower 
calyx-lobe entire, and the upper lobed to near the middle. The 
large size of the flower in Z. Hadlit is like that of ZL. longifolius, but 
the latter has much larger leaves, which are less silky-pubescent, 
and calyx-lobes of the Z. a/bifrons type.
