38 PLANTE FENDLERIANZE. 
am confident belong to the same species with ours. It is a very handsome plant, with 
flowers as large as in L. perennis, and apparently light blue. A characteristic of the 
species is the saccate, almost spurred, base of the calyx, which is quite as conspicuous as 
in L. laxiflorus, next to which it should be placed. The same plant was gathered near 
the sources of the Platte in the first expedition of Col. Fremont, and forms part of what 
was called L, ornatus in the Botanical catalogue of that expedition. 
167. Same as the last (and growing with it), with the flowers light rose-color. — 
The flowers in the dried specimen appear to be ochroleucous; perhaps it is the L. argen- 
teus of Pursh (which has not been really identified); but it cannot be the L. argenteus 
of Agardh.* 
+169. L. pecumpens, Torr.; with the leaflets glabrous above; the flowers appar- 
ently pale, as large as those of no. 166 and no. 167. Poni Creek, in low prairies. 
168. L. taxircorus, Dougl. ? with oblong-lanceolate, almost entirely glabrous 
leaflets. — Valley of Santa Fé Creek, in the mountains ; June, July. 
170. Tuermorsis monrana, Nutt. in Torr. §- Gray, Fl. 1. p- 388. Foot of moun- 
tains, in low, moist places, valley of Santa Fé Creek, five miles above Santa Fé; May, 
June. — The wings and keel often acquire a blue tinge in drying ; as in specimens from 
Oregon, by Mr. Spalding, of T. fabacea, Hook! in Pl. Geyer, which are not well to be 
distinguished from this species. 
+171. Sornora sericea, Nutt. Gen. 1. p- 280. Prairies, from the Mora River to 
Cold Spring, on the Cimarron; August. 
+172. Cercts Canapensis, Linn. Council Grove; in the creek bottom.

* No. 390 of Geyer’s Oregon Collection was given as Lupinus albicaulis by 
; Hooker, probably by a slip of 
the pen, as my specimens are L. leucophyllus, Lind/., with one of L. sericeus ?
