8a. ANODA Cav. 



Annual or perhaps rarely perennial herbs, similar to Sida in habit. Leaves alter- 

 nate : blades commonly deltoid or hastate, toothed or rarely cleft. Flowers perfect, 

 solitary at the ends of relatively long pedicels. Calyx persistent, enlarged and spreading 

 under the fruit. Corolla showy. Carpels 5-20, radiately spreading and forming a capsule- 

 like fruit whose partitions and sides break down, the firmer top and back'bearing a spread- 

 ing cusp. Ovule and seed mostly resupinate-horizontal, the latter partially exposed at 

 maturity. 



1. Anoda pentachfsta A. Gray. Stem 3-7 dm. tall, slender, paniculately branched, 

 puberulent-pubescent, when copiously so usually cinereous : leaf-blades thickish, those on 

 the lower part of the stem ovate, angulate at the base or somewhat hastate, 1-4 cm. long, 

 subcordate or truncate at the base, those of the upper cauline leaves narrower, hastate-lan- 

 ceolate or hastate-linear, or sometimes without basal lobes, short-petioled, more pubescent 

 than the stem : calyx stellate-pubescent, 4-5 mm. high during anthesis and with lanceolate 

 lobes, 8-9 mm. wide at maturity, with the lobe's very broad and partially involute : petals 

 bright yellow, cuneate, about 5 mm. long : carpels 5, or rarely 6-9, the top of each one 3- 

 3.5 mm. long, finely stellate-pubescent : seed 3 mm. high. 



On plains and prairies. Texas to Arizona and northern Mexico. Spring to fall.

 "Ovary superior."

4. Gilia longiflora (Torr. ) G. Don. Annual, glabrous. Stem 2-7 dm. tall, panicu- 

 lately branched, firm : leaves alternate ; blades pinnately parted into slenderly linear seg- 

 ments 1-4 cm. long : flowers in corymbs : calyx about 6 mm. long ; lobes lanceolate-subu- 

 late, shorter than the tube : corolla white ; tube slender, 3-3.5 cm. long ; lobes oval to 

 orbicular-oval, fully 1 cm. long : capsule oblong, 11-13 mm. long.

 habit, typically smaller: leaf -blades ovate, 0.5-1.5 cm, long, acute, sessile: hypanthium 

 becoming larger than that of H. purpurea : sepals lanceolate or oblong-lanceolate : corolla 

 purple, sometimes deeply so, 9-11 mm. long : capsules fully 2 mm. thick. [J?. purpurea 

 var. montana Chickering.]
