9. MILLA, Cav. 
1. M. srrtora, Cav. Corm small, membranous-coated: leaves 
subterete, very rough: scape smooth, 2 to 12 inches high, bearing 1 to 
5 nearly equal elongated pedicels (3 to 6 inches long) : perianth 1} to 
2 inches long, the broadly oblong-lanceolate segments (the inner nar- 
rower) about twice longer than the tube. — Icon, 2. 76, t. 196; Lindl. 
Bot. Reg. t. 1555. Diphalangium graminifolium, Schauer, Linnea, 
19. 702. From S. Arizona and New Mexico to Central Mexico. 
10. LEUCOCRINUM, Nutt. 
1. L. monranum, Nutt. Leaves several, rather thick, 1 to 3 lines 
broad: flowers (4 to 8) on pedicels } to 1} inches long, the very 
slender tube an inch or two long: capsule truncate, 3 or 4 lines long, 
with 4 to 6 seeds in each cell. — Gray, Ann. N. Y. Lye. 4. 110; 
Watson, King’s Rep. 5. 349, t. 36, f. 1-38. Weldenia, Endl. Gen. Pl.

The Mexican WELDENIA CANDIDA is known only from the de- 
scription and figure by Schult. f. (in Regensb. Flora (1829), 12. 1, t. 1, 
and Syst. 7. 1136), based upon a single imperfect specimen collected by 
Karwinsky in the mountains near Toluca (“Nevada de Toluca”). It 
is represented as differing from Leucoerinum mainly in its broader 
and short leaves, perianth-segments only three, and anthers extrorse. 
11. CAMASSIA, Lindl. 
1. C. escuLenta, Lindl. Scape stout, a foot or two high: leaves 
3 to 8 lines broad: pedicels rather stout, mostly shorter than the 
usually dark-blue flowers: perianth-segments 7 to 15 lines long, 
scarcely exceeding the style, a little longer than the stamens: anthers 
a line or two long: ovules 16 to 18 in each cell: capsule oblong- 
obovate, somewhat narrowed at base, rather obtusely angled, 6 to 12 
lines long. — Bot. Reg. t. 1486; FI. Serres, t. 275; Baker, Journ. 
Linn. Soc. 18. 256. Phalangium Quamash, Pursh. Scilla esculenta, 
var., Hook. Bot. Mag. t. 2774, the white-flowered form, which is also 
Ohlorogalum Leichtlinii, Baker, Gard. Chron. 1874, 689, and Ca- 
massia esculenta, var. Leichtlinit, Baker, Bot. Mag. t. 6287. British 
Columbia to California and Utah. 
2. C. Fraseri, Torr. Pedicels more slender and often exceeding 
the smaller (4 to 7 lines long) light-blue flowers: ovules 6 to 9 in 
each cell: capsule very broadly triangular-globose, acutely angled, 3
