THE ISLAND OF SAN CLEMENTE 155 



buckthorn (Rhamnus pirifolia). The following I take 

 from Mrs. Trask's list: poppy {Eschscholtzia ramosa) ; 

 turquoise daisy {Gilia nevinii) ; lava daisy {Malcothrix 

 foliosa); tree poppy {Dendromecon stylo phyllum) ; four 

 o'clock (MirabiUs California); Erio phyllum nevinii; 

 Aphanisma hlitoides; Rhus integrijolia ; Cnicus occi- 

 denialis; Franseria; Abronia, two species; A triplex 

 breweri; Plantago insularis; Phacelia, Salicornia, Hemi- 

 zonia, and many others, tributes to Mrs. Trask's keen 

 observation and love of nature. Had one the enthusi- 

 asm of Dr. Hess he could write a book on the fungi of 

 this and other islands alone, collected from rocks, 

 trees, and shrubs by him and Mrs. Trask. Professor 

 and Mrs. C. F. Baker have discovered a number of 

 new species of fungi on Santa Catalina.
