canescent and vary somewhat from the type as to foliage, 

 but they do not appear to be separable from M. nasutus. 



MiMULUS LUTEUS, L. 



There are some thirty or forty sheets of Mimulus, 

 labelled M. luteus, in our herbarium. These include many 

 forms and varieties, and we believe several species, but we 

 find it impossible even with Dr. Greene's " Mimuliis 

 luteus and some of its allies " in hand to satisfactorily 

 separate and determine our specimens. They cover a 

 wide range — from the Cypress Hills, Alberta, through the 

 Rocky Mountains and British Columbia north to the 

 Aleutian Islands, including Unalaska, the locality from 

 which seeds of M. Langsdorffii were taken to Europe, but 

 the various forms so intergrade that our present know- 

 ledge does not enable us to definitely and finally separate 

 them.
