Reported from San Miguel, Santa Cruz, Santa Catalina, 

 San Clemente. Mrs. Trask found this growing on the 

 beach. Different plants varied greatly in size. The spec- 

 imen from which the determination is made is larger in all 

 its parts than any specimen in the Herbarium of the Acad- 

 emy. The leaves and other parts are less hoary.

The plants from San Nicolas are too young for certainty. 

 The species has been reported from Santa Catalina. On 

 San Nicolas it grew on seashore sands. 



19. Suaeda. — Two species of this seem to have been 

 collected, but the specimens are too young for determina- 

 tion. One resembles 6". Calif ornica Wats. S . Torreyana 

 is the species reported from the other islands, but the plant 

 from Santa Rosa Island, so labelled in the Herbarium of 

 the Academy, is more like S . Californica. This is also 

 true of one recently sent from Santa CataHna by Mrs. 

 Trask.

This has rarely been collected. Besides the type locality 

 it has been found on San Clemente and San Pedro (near 

 Los Angeles). On San Nicolas it grew only at the foot of 

 Le^tosyne gigantea.
