1835- 

 No. 7798, collected May i, at Keene Station in the Tehach- 

 api mountains, Kern county. It is common at intervals along 

 the railroad between Caliente and Keene, is about a foot and a 

 half high, the flowers white tinged with pink. The type was 

 grown from seed sent from Monterey by Douglas. 



No. 6538, collected April 10, on plains near Oil City, oppo- 

 site Bakersfield, Kern county. This is a lower, more slender 

 plant than 7798, with rose colored flowers, but does not differ 

 essentially in flower characters. It was also noticed on the 

 bluffs of Kern river above Bakersfield.

No. 7951, collected June 3, in sand along the Sacramento 

 between Middle Creek Station and Keswick, Shasta county, the 

 flowers pale yellow as in the type. The plants were mostly 

 large, nearly two feet high and wider than that across the top, 

 the branches almost horizontal, giving the plant a tree-like ap- 

 pearance. In Flora Franciscana Greene gives L. bridgesii A* 

 Gray as a synonym of this, but it should rather be referred to 

 L. menziesii Agardh, provided it is not distinct. 



No. 7990, collected June 8, on low hills west of Yreka, Sis- 

 kiyou county. Here the plants were not so tall as those of no. 

 7951, the branches more ascending and the flower bright yellow, 

 but the essential characters in no wise different.
