As indicated above, this plant cannot be the Oenothera mul- 
tyjuga of Watson (Proc. Am. Acad. 8: 595) if any reliance ke 
placed upon that description. The description, was, however, 
drawn froin a fragment, and might properly apply to any one of 
several species. For this reason it seems well to present this de- 
scription, and under a new nate, so long as Watson’s plant re- 
mains unrecognized. 
Oreocarya Eastwoodae n. sp. 
Plant 1 to 2dm. high, perennial: steins several, erect, pv- 
bescent and setose-hispid: leaves closely clustered at base of 
stems, densely silvery canescent (the younger ones hirsute), lin- 
ear-lanceolate to somewhat spatulate, 3 to 5 cm. long including 
the petioles: sepals 6mm. long in flower and 8 mm. long in fruit, 
exceeding the nutlets 3 to 4mm. in mature fruit, hirsute and 
hispid without: corolla yellowish, its exserted tube 9 mm. long, 
its lobes orbicular, 4.5mm. long and 4mm. wide, appendages 
conspicuous: style 5 mm. long: anthers 2mm. long and .5 mim. 
wide: nutlets 4, close fitting, ovoid, 2.5mm. long and 2mm. 
wide, finely muricate and transversely rugose. 
Allied to O. dongifiora. ‘The specimens taken as the type 
were collected on the higher slopes of the Mormon mountains, 
Lincoln county, Nevada, at an elevation of from 3000-6000 feet, 
by P. B. Kennedy and L. N. Goodding, No. 146, July, 1906. 
Other specimens to be referred here are from Court House Wash, 
southeastern Utah (no number), Alice Eastwood; Juab, Utah, 
No. 1074, L. N. Goodding. 
Phlox Gooddingii n. sp. 
Perennial, glandular pubescent, loosely tufted, suffrutescent, 
the previous year’s growth persisting on the short densely 
branched prostrate stems; new annual growth 3 to 5cm. in 
length, terminating in from one to several flowers: leaves verti- 
cillate, usually two long and three short ones in a whorl, long 
ones 15min. long and 2mm. wide, short ones 71min. long and 
Imm. wide, linear-lanceolate, acerose, a few scattered pairs
