Orthocarpus. SCROPHULARIACE^. 579 



12. O. faucibarbatiTS, Gray. Nearly glabrous, or the bracts, &c., with some 

 short hirsute pubf8ceuce, rather stout, and the branches fewer : leaves rather coarser : 

 corolla apparently white and with smaller sacs ; the beard within less conspicuous ; 

 the straight upper lip baraly tinged with purple : otherwise nearly as 0. erianthus. 

 — Pacif. R. Rep. iv. 121 ; Watson, Bot. King Exp. 457. 



Moist grounds, around San Francisco Bay and northward to Mendocino Co., apparently not 

 rare. 



* * Anthers 2-ceUed; the lower cell mostly small and imperfect in the first twos2)ecies: 

 seed with an outer loose and arilli/orm coarsely reticulated coat. 



•¥■ Lower lip of the corolla very broad; the sacs deeper (Jiorizontally) tluxn long, 

 ++ Comparatively small: narrow ^i2:)per lip truncate at the tip : capsule oblong, obtuse. 



13. O. gracilis, Benth. Minutely pubescent, or below glabrous, branched from 

 the base ; tlie slender branches a span or more high : leaves 3-parted into linear- 

 filiform divisions, or some of the lower nearly entire : upper bracts shorter than the 

 rather closely spicate flowers, the tips of their lobes puri)lis]i-tinged : corolla pubes- 

 cent, purplish ; its slender tube twice the length of the calyx ; lower lip decidedly 

 shorter than the upper ; its sacs small but deep, somewhat conical. 



Cahfornia (near Monterey?), Douglas, Nuttall. "We have only s})eeimens from Douglas. 

 Corolla 7 lines long ; the upper lip 2 lines ; lower one a line deep. Seeds broadly oval, in a very 

 loose and lace-like arilliform coat. 



•4-i- ++ Sacs ample : upper lip subulate : capside ovate : stem simple or few-branched : 

 spike thichish and commonly dense, at least above. 



14. O. campestris, Benth. Glabrous or nearly so below, above (the calyx and 

 base of bracts) iiirsute or hispid, 2 to 4 inches high : leaves and bracts narrow-liriear 

 and entire, rarely with a lobe or two : calyx-lobes lanceolate, often united in pairs : 

 corolla white ; the erect and scarious teeth of the lower lip slender and rather 

 conspicuous. — PL Hartw. 329. 



Fields in the valley of the Sacramento, Ilartiveg. Plumas Co., Mrs. Palsifcr Ames. Corolla 

 about three fourths of an inch long : lower lip 2 lines deep. 



~ 15, O. lithospermoides, Benth. Hirsute above, pubescent below, about a 

 foot high, strict and simple or with some erect branches, very leafy : leaves lance- 

 olate or lanceolate-linear and all but the lower with few or several .slender lobes ; 

 the floral with a dilated base and somewhat palmate lobes almost equalling 

 the crowded flowers : calyx-lobes linear : corolla cream-color, " often turning pale 

 rose-color " ; the sacs very ventricose (fully 3 lines wide) ; the teeth short and incon- 

 spicuous. 



Hillsides, and moist meadows ; common through the western part of the State from San Fran- 

 cisco Bay and the Sacramento northward. Corolla an inch long or rathei- less. 



-i- -i- Lo^ver lip of the corolla less a7nple, surpassed by the subidate upper one; the sacs 

 not deeper than long: hirsute, strict and sijnple, or the larger plants branching, ivith 

 leaves and lobes linear and mostly attenuated : sjnkes leafy : calyxdobes slender. 



16. O. lacerus, Benth. A span to a foot high, rather soft-hirsute and above 

 viscid : leaves mostly pinnately parted or the upper floral palmately 3 - 7-cleft into 

 long and narrow divisions or lobes : leafy spikes at first dense, at length loose : 

 calyx-lobes shorter than the tube : corolla yellow, its sacs about as deep as long. — 

 PI. Hartw. 329. 0. hispidus, Watson, Bot. King Exp. 230, in part, &c. 



Oi)en grounds, from the valley of the Sacramento {ffartwrrf) and through the Sierra Nevada, 

 where it' abounds from Mariposa Co. to Sierra Vallc-y. Corolla two thirds or half an inch long ; 

 the tube little or considerably longer than the calyx. Related on one hand to 0. 1 ithosprnmuks 

 in its larger forms, in the smaller ones to 0. hispidus, with which it has been confounded.
