226 PITTONIA. 
This excellent maritime species was first described from a 
living plant, of which the root had been transferred to the 
botanic garden from Fort Bragg. Since then it has been 
collected by Miss Eastwood and by Mr. Brandegee at various 
stations along the coast from Fort Bragg to Point Reyes. It 
has, then, a more extended range than has its ally Æ. Califor- 
nica, from which it is totally distinct by many characters. 
I have in my own herbarium two sheets of specimens made 
from the original plant, and I must have distributed others at 
that time; for they are found in several herbaria, under the 
name Æ. cornuta, Greene, a name which I did not publish, 
though it had been perhaps a more fittin g name than the one I 
gave later in print, especially in view of the remarkably long 
horn-like apiculation of the calyx; a character which is, however, 
less pronounced in the Point Reyes specimens, where the apic- 
ulation is both shorter and less abrupt. 
6. E. GLAUCA, Greene, Pitt. i. 45, but not of Fl. Fr. 285, 
which is Æ, juncea. Perennial, glabrous, very glaucous, the 
ascending stems and branches 2 to 4 feet long, sometimes with 
rather obvious false-dichotomy: leaves large, multifid, the 
narrowly linear segments very long, moderately divergent: 
calyx ovate-conical, 7. e. ovate with long and gradual at last 
slender point, about an inch long in early flowers, later smaller : 
corolla 2 inches broad, open-campanulate, the petals yellow, 
with orange spot at base, sometimes with also a narrow orange 
margin: stamens very many, the outer filaments broad, nearly 
liguliform, slightly tapering, the others quite liguliform, all 
wholly yellow ; anthers very long : stigmas 4, stoutish, unequal: 
pods 2 inches long or more: torus-rim rather ample, herbace- 
ous, commonly deflexed under the pod: seed spherical, 
reticulate. 
Collected as indigenous only by myself, on Santa Cruz Island, 
1886. Also seen in cultivation at Santa Barbara the same year, 
one specimen taken by me from a garden being now extant in 
Herb, Calif. Acad. But my type specimens show the plant only
