1906] EASTWOOD—CALIFORNIAN PLANTS 291 
linear-lanceolate, acute, 6™™ long: corolla yellow, tubular, abruptly 
narrowed 1™™ above the base, the border consisting of five short, 
obtuse, incurved teeth; style branches exserted, the hairy tips very 
short: akenes slightly hairy at top; pappus simple, barbellulate, as 
long as the corolla. 
Collected by Dr. Edwin Bingham Copeland on Mount Eddy, Siskiyou 
County, California, at an altitude of 1400™, August 17, 1903. It belongs to 
the group which includes E. miser Gray, as well as many species described by 
Dr. E. L. Greene in Flora Franciscana, p. 394; but it agrees with none. 
 Erigeron Copelandi, n. sp.—Cespitose from an underground, 
branched caudex, covered with black, scale-like, imbricated bases 
of old petioles: radical leaves spatulate, subcanescent, with closely 
appressed very short pubescence; petioles equaling or longer than 
the blades, together 1-3°™ long, 4-8™™ wide, the petioles dilated 
and closely imbricated at the reddish-purple base: stems 1-flowered, 
5-10" high, sparsely leaved with narrow linear or linear-oblan- 
ceolate leaves 5-10™™ long, becoming minute and bract-like on 
the glandular-puberulent upper part which is like a peduncle: heads 
about 6™™ high exclusive of the numerous, very narrow, lilac to 
violet rays, which are 5™™ long; scales of the involucre in three 
series, glandular-puberulent, the outermost shorter, clothed with 
some scattered hairs, innermost linear-attenuate, sparsely ciliate, 
green-ribbed, membranously margined, about 5™™ long; disk 
flowers numerous, yellow, 2.5™™ long, narrowed 1™™ above the 
base, glandular on the lower part, the border of five short acute 
incurved teeth: pappus upwardly barbellulate, simple, that of the 
ray flowers shorter than that of the disk, none as long as the corolla; 
akenes clothed with upwardly spreading hairs; stamens exserted 
in some flowers, pistils in others; fertile and sterile flowers in the 
same head, ray-flowers sterile. 
Collected on Mt. Eddy, Siskiyou County, California, at an altitude of 1250™ 
_ by Dr. Edwin Bingham Copeland, in whose honor it is a pleasure to name this 
pretty plant. It is related to E. pygmaeus Greene and others of that group, 
but differs from all in caudex, pubescence, leaves, and heads. 
Y Chrysopsis gracilis, n. sp—Stems slender, simple, 3°" high, 
loosely and sparingly villous-arachnoid, terminated by 2-4 cymose 
heads: leaves thin, linear-lanceolate, narrowly acuminate, 3-4°™
