GRANT—A MONOGRAPH OF THE GENUS MIMULUS 281 
tapering to а short broad petiole, thick, 1-3-nerved from the base; 
flowers axillary, flowering from near the base and usually closely 
clustered at the tips of the branches, pedicels slender, 3-6 mm. 
long; calyx broadly campanulate, 8-10 mm. long, inflated and 
weakly angled when mature, membranous, the teeth herbaceous, 
broadly deltoid, sharply acuminate, unequal, the upper tooth 
longer and recurved, throat expanded, oblique; corolla funnel- 
form, 1.3-1.5 cm. long, rose-red, more or less shaded and streaked 
with darker red, tube included, throat short with a large hairy 
yellow patch on the lower side, lobes short, rounded, subequal, 
the limb 1-2 cm. in diameter; stamens glabrous, the upper pair 
and the style usually exserted; stigma-lips equal, ciliate; capsule 
lanceolate, obtuse, slightly incurved at the apex, about as long 
as the uppermost calyx-tooth; seeds oval, smooth, apiculate at 
each end, about 1 mm. long. . 
Distribution: known only from the San Antonio Mts. in 
southern California. Common on dry ground under the pines 
in the Canadian Zone. 
Specimens examined: 
California: under pines, San Antonio Cafion, San Antonio Mts., 
Los Angeles Co., 6000 ft. alt., 28 July, 1917, I. M. Johnston 
1562 (С, М, түре, Stanford, and Pomona); common under 
pines, Baldy Lookout of U. S. Forest Service, San Antonio . 
Mts., 7000 ft. alt., 20 June, 1917, I. M. Johnston 1486 (Stan- 
ford and Pomona); Cucamonga Mts., San Bernardino Co., 
5000 ft. alt., July, 1920, Childs (M). 
Из stout stems, long internodes, small flowers, and usually 
Slightly exserted style and stamens will serve to separate this 
species from M. Bigelovii, with which it has been confused. The 
seeds are interesting in that they are fully twice as large as those 
of any of the other species in this section except M. Cusickii. 
specifie identity of these plants was first questioned by I. M. 
Johnston in his paper “The Flora of the Pine Belt of the San 
ne Mountains of Southern California” (Plant World 22: 
- 1919).
