Lepidium latipes. 



Humifusumj caespitosumj foliis linearibus bipinnatifidis, floribus 

 densissime corymbosis, pedicellis latissirais planis, siliculis 

 ellipticis reticulatis hirsutis antice bialatis alis rectis longitu- 

 dine siliculorum, stigmate sessili. 



Hab. Monterey, California. Mr. Douglas. 



Annua, dense caespitosa. Corymhi numerosi, miiltiflori. Flores 

 parvi. Pedicelli latissimi, compressi, demum reflexi. Sepala 

 parva, patentia, elliptica, liispida. Petala oblonga, erecta, ciliata. 

 Siliculce copiosse, apice alatse, bifidse. 



This is quite distinct from any Lepidium with which I am 

 acquainted, both in the shape of the silicula and nature of the 

 pedicel. Corr/mfis shorter than the leaves, so loaded with flowers 

 that they seem to constitute capitula rather than corymbs.
