130. This was collected in Butler Wash, with leaves 

 densely tomentose on both surfaces, ovate-orbicular, un- 

 dulate, revolute ; corymb with four main branches, each 

 dichotomously branched; immature flowers rose color. 

 This was collected by Mr. Wetherill. The specimens 

 were not more than 1 dm. in height with several stems 

 branching from the base, either erect or prostrate. 



131. This came from the head of Willow Creek. It 

 has orbicular leaves, revolute and crinkled on the margins, 

 tomentose below, smoother above; branches of the cyme 

 more slender than in the other two, 3-forked except on 

 ultimate branchlets; immature flowers yellow; upper part 

 of stem yellowish under the sparse wool. 



132. Eriogonum Mearnsii Parry, Trans. N. Y. Acad., 

 viii, 72. 



Type locality: " Fort Verde, Arizona." 

 This was collected on a rocky hill on Barton's Range, 

 between Epsom and Willow Creeks; abundant in a lim- 

 ited space. I believe this is the second collection of 

 this rare species, extending the range northward. 



133. Eriogonum microthecum var. rigidum Eastwood, 

 Zoe, iv, 11. 



Type locality: " The mesas above Durango, Colo." 

 This was collected on a dry hillside near Butler Spring. 



134. Eriogonum ramosissimum n. sp. 



Stems suffrutescent, several from a woody root, about 

 6 dm. high, diffusely branching; leaves linear-lanceolate 

 2-4 cm. long, 4-5 mm. wide, tomentose on both surfaces, 

 less densely so above ; margin slightly revolute and un- 

 dulate ; petioles short, spreading, decurrent, about 2 mm. ; 

 inflorescence widely spreading, dividing and subdividing, 

 with long flowerless internodes 8-10 cm. long diminish-
