ciliate; corolla 1.8-2 cm. long, rose-color, tube yellow, exserted, 
slender, expanding gradually to а very broad throat and nearly 
erect, subequal, emarginate lobes, throat yellow, spotted with 
reddish-purple on the lower side and with two elongated, deep 
yellow patches below the middle lobe, deep reddish-maroon on 
the upper side, these colors spreading irregularly over the lobes; 
stamens and style glabrous, included, anthers hispid, filaments 
glabrous; stigma reddish-purple, the lobes unequal; capsule not 
seen. 
Distribution: known only from the type locality. 
Specimens examined: 
California: Snow Creek, Mariposa Co., 1 June, 1890, Congdon 
(G, TYPE). 
No confirmation of this species has been made since the type 
was collected and more material may show that it is a shade 
form closely related to M. Palmeri. These specimens differ 
from M. Palmeri in having unequal non-ciliate calyx-teeth, 
which are triangular-acute instead of obtuse. The coloring 
somewhat resembles that of some of the color forms of M. 
Palmeri.
