leafy-bracted : pedicels at length about a line long: calyx-segments linear- 
lanceolate, erect and not enlarged in fruit, longer than the nutlets: corolla 
1-2 lines in diameter: nutlets ovate, carinate ventrally down to the ovate 
nearly basal scar and obscurely so dorsally, dorsal surface transversely ru- _ 
gose with sharp ruge and obscurely tuberculate. In wet places, Umpqua 
Valley Oregon. | 
A. Californica Greene |. c. 20. Eritrichium Californicum DC. Spar- 
ingly appressed-pubescent with setose bairs: stem slender, often diffusely 
branched, the branches 2-15 inches long, weak and reclining or depressed : 
leaves linear: racemes rather lax, with a few bracts at the base: pedicels 
a line or less long, erect: calyx-segments linear, longer than the nutlets, 
spreading but not enlarged in fruit, hirsute with ferruginous hairs when 
young: corolla 1-2 lines in diameter; the appendages in its throat not con- 
spicuous: nutlets ovate-oblong, slightly carinate ventrally, transversely 
rugose; the scar roundish-triangular, almost basal. In wet meadows, 
western Oregon and California. 
* * Larger-flowered annuals, erect. or diffuse: limb of the rotate 
corolla 3-5 lines in diameter: nutlets rugulose. 
A. Chorisiana Greene Pitt. i, 13. Pubescence sparse and appressed 
except on the calyx: stem 1-2 feet high, freely branching, the branches at 
length recurving: larger leaves 2—4 inches long: racemes elongated, loose 
and leafy below: pedicels filiform, 4-8 lines long: calyx little accrescent, 
the campanulate segments about a line long: corolla 3-5 lines broad: nut- 
lets ovate, little more than half of a line long, carinate ventrally only, the 
keel and scar closely approached but not covered by the lateral angles, the 
obtuse rugee of the back running into more or less fayose meshes among 
minute granulations. On Vancouver Island B. C. and at San Francisco 
Bay California, perhaps at intermediate stations. 
A. hirta Greene l. c. 161. Setose-hispid throughout with spreading 
or somewhat deflexed hairs and no appressed pubescence: stem erect and 
stoutish, 10-16 inches high, simple below with several pairs of connate- 
sheathing linear leaves, loosely racemose above: racemes in pairs, bract- 
less : pedicels slender, a line long: calyx 2 lines long, not enlarging in fruit. 
its segments erect in fruit, very hirsute: corolla 3 lines broad: nutlets 
ovate, dark-colored, scarcely carinate except ventrally, the dorsal face 
granulate and obscurely rugulose. In wet places, Umpqua Valley Oregon. 
A. Seouleri Greene l. c. 18. ritrichium Scouleri A. DC. Sparsely 
appressed-hirsute : stem 6-18 inches high, usually diffusely branching from 
the base with slender ascending branches and few pairs of connate-clasp- 
ing linear leaves: flowers in geminate, or sometimes paniculate slender 
racemes, most of them bractless, very fragrant: pedicels erect or ascending, 
at most a line long: calyx erect and not enlarged in fruit: corolla 3-4 lines 
broad, the appendages in the throat conspicuous, yellow, puberulent: nut- 
lets ovate, 1% line long, carinate on both sides at the apex and ventrally 
down to the linear-oblong scar, dorsal surface obviously granulate and in- 
’ distinctly rugulose. Common in wet places, western Oregon and Wash. 
A. Hendersoni A. Nelson Eryth. vii, 69. Sparsely and rather softly 
strigose-pubescent throughout : stem simple at the base, sparingly branch- 
ed above, erect, slender, 8-16 inches high: leaves broadly linear, 2-3 inches 
long, acutish: racemes naked, at length long and slender, the uppermost 
geminate with a flower in the fork: pedicels short: calyx-segments linear, 
in fruit about 244 lines long, strigose-hispid: corolla 244-3 lines in diame- 
ter, the throat nearly closed by the conspicuous emarginate appendages: 
nutlets ovate, subacute, 1-1%¢ lines long, very closely and finely muriculate, 
with a few small rounded papille interspersed, moderately carinate on the 
ventral side. Eastern Washington and adjacent Idaho. ;
