"What I now find to be of a species hitherto 



unrecognized, comes from Monterey Co, {Hidcman) and from 

 the foot-hills of the Sierra Nevada in Yuba Co., California, 

 lu pubescence, and also in respect to the pattern of the large 

 Salpiglossis-like corolla, it is exceedingly unlike any of the 

 plants described by Nuttall or by any one else. The herbage 

 is of that dark green which is otherwise found only in the 

 next species.

 Nom. and Gray, Syii. Fl. Supplem. 442. Differs from !)• 

 glutinosns, as indicated under that species, in the cut of tlie 

 corolla, as well as in its color ; leaves also narrow, firmer and 

 always with revolute margins; style-base, moreover, not in 



the least tubercular. 



Very common in San Diego Co., Calif., its further range, 

 if it have any northward or southward, not reported.

6. D. PAEViFLORUS, Greene, Pitt. i. 36 (1887). Related to 

 the last, but most distinct ; the leaves much broader than in 

 any other species, and the small corollas, the limb of which 

 Is scarcely at all spreading, forbid our regarding it as a mere 

 variety of the mainland red-fiowered species. It is hardy 

 under cultivation at Berkeley, where it grows more vigor- 

 ously, but does not otherwise diverge at all from the wild 

 type, which is endemic on Santa Cruz Island.
