NOVITATES OCCIDENTALES. 101 
Hieracium amplum. Stoutish, 2 or 3 feet high, amply 
leafy up to the rather broad corymbose panicle, but no 
radical tuft of foliage: leaves oblong-spatulate, acutish, 
entire, 4 to 6 inches long, hirsute along the margins, and 
with scattered appressed hairs on both faces; upper cauline 
leaves and branches of the inflorescence pale and glauces- 
cent, seemingly glabrous, but somewhat tomentose-puber- 
ulent under a lens: involucres about 5 lines high, loosely 
calyculate, the subequal bracts dark with black setulose 
stout hairs, otherwise glabrous: ligules yellow: achenes 
columnar, or even slightly widening to the summit; pappus 
whi

Co., Calif., 11 May, 1895: also in more slender form, with 
smaller and paler flowers, in Los Guilucos Valley, Sonoma 
Co., June, 1893, F. T. Bioletti. 
Species most related to B. bicornuta, perhaps, but the 
configuration of the corolla far more simple. In coloring 
the corolla is almost like that of B. pulchella, but in form it 
is very different,
