No. 7658, collected April 12, on the ridge on the north side 

 of the mouth of Kern canyon, growing near rocks and some- 

 what sheltered. This was referred to C. virgata as it seemed to 

 resemble Hansen's specimen mentioned in the original descrip- 

 tion, but now upon comparing our plant with the description it 

 is found to be different. The glaucescent stems are glabrous, 

 the claw of the petal is not short and broad but long and slen^ 

 der, and the slender glabrous capsule is sessile, taper pointed, 

 little if at all curved.

 No. 7445, collected May 25, 1904, in the foothills west of 

 Ivos Gatos, Santa Clara county, where it occurs sparingly neat 

 the reservoir in dry grassy ground. This is a low form with 

 small flowers. In speaking of this and the next number, Miss 

 Eastwood writes that "none of the plants are exactly typical, for 

 generally they are more branched above the base." The species 

 has not heretofore been reported from the Coast Range. The 

 type came from "Fort Miller,"on the San Joaquin river near the 

 present town of Pollasky, Fresno county. 



No. 7446, collected May 25, 1904, in the foothills west of 

 Los Gatos, Santa Clara county, where it was rather plentiful in 

 dry grassy places near the reservoir. This form has considerably 

 larger flowers than 7445, with the markings slightly different.
