Eastwood : New species of western plants 



ing into the bracts, about I mm. long, green and glandular except 

 at the chartaceous base, the inner linear, keeled, 4 mm. long, white 

 or purplish, chartaceous except for the green, glandular spot at 

 the triangular-acute apex, the glands all tack-shaped : flowers 

 white, about 8 in each head : akenes obconic, densely pubescent 

 with upwardly appressed hairs : pappus rather coarse, rufous, bar- 

 bellate, unequal, the longest bristles about equaling the corolla- 

 tube. 



Collected by the author near Rose Station on the road be- 

 tween Tejon Pass and Bakersfield, Kern County, California, Octo- 

 ber 3, 1894. It is distinct from all other species in habit and color 

 of flowers, but in general seems most like Z. glandulifera Gray.
