 style indurated and persistent. 



3. A. COrnutum, Benth. Villous and viscid, simjily branched : leaves linear- 

 oblong or lanceolate (an inch long), tho lower tapering into a short petiole : fila-

Banks of streams, Mariposa to Kern counties, Bolander, &c. Corolla a quarter of an inch long. 



* * * Erect or spreading, branching, slendei', producing filiform and at length tortile

 (small) short, both lips spreading, the lower larger and as long as the tube. 



4- Floivers in a naked spike or dense raceme : bracts minute. 



5. A. Coulterianum, Benth. Stem weak, 2 to 4 feet high, gaining support 

 by its numerous filiform tortile branchlets acting as tendrils, glabrous below, as are

 virgate, 2 to 10 inches long: pedicels usually shorter than tho linear or lanceolate 

 obtuse sepals, which are shorter than the ovate-oblong capsule : style short. —
