Note on Ceanothus Veitcldanus, Hook, &c. 

 By William TreleasS. 



An examination of the type of this species in the Kew herbarium shows 

 that it is closely related to C. thyrsiflorus, though with charin'ters of the 

 deniatus group. Whether it be an autonomous species maj' still be an open 

 question, but for the present I should so modify the group " *** " jix my 

 list (Proceedings, p. 108) as to include it, thus: 



* * * Flowers blue: inflorescence ample, ou leafy branches oj', when very conipound, 

 on a series of densely flavored leafless terminal shoots : twigs sulcate or ribbed: leaves 

 pale below, medium-sized or smaller (10 to 50 mm. long), 3-nerved in the first which has 

 the veins very prominent below, rather coarsely dentate to minutely glandular-serrulate: 

 fruit mostly 5 to 6 mm. in diameter in the first. 



C. THYR.SIFLORUS, Esch. 



C. Veitchianus, Hook. — Twigs very low-ribbed : leaves round to obovate, 

 cuneate, mostly with coarser teeth, the margin revolute between the teeth, 

 scarcely triple-nerved : inflorescence rather more congested : fruit un- 

 known.— Bot. Mag. pi. 5127. — Possibly a hybrid between the preceding and 

 some one of the dentatua group. 



It would also be more natural to allow C. Parryi with the characters of 

 "^ +, "to precede " -+ " on p. 109 of my list.
