hyaline edges of the lobes, which are oblong, 2 mm. long, the 

 acute tips somewhat recurved, a little concave: corollas i cm. 

 long, narrowly funnelform, 2 mm. across below, 4 mm. above, 

 the lobes oblong, rounded, spreading, barely 3 mm. long, 2 mm. 

 wide, the upper lip with the lobes somewhat approaching, those 

 of the lower lip spreading, the lower lip twice the width of the 

 upper (7 or 8 mm.); throat scantily bearded at the base of the 

 middle lobe of the lower lip: anthers explanate; sterile filament 

 slightly enlarged and flattened above, bearing a few hairs on 

 one side just below the apex: style a little stouter than the fila-

The type is no. 8360, collected May 31, 1906, in the foot- 

 hills west of Bishop, Inyo county, California, a short distance 

 above the house in "McGee's meadows," in a moist grassy place, 

 A relative of P. conferttts^ but apparently different from any of 

 the species recently proposed by Professor Greene.

 the genus when it is covered with the large yellow flowers. The 

 given range of the type is "stream banks and some boggy places 

 among the hills near the Bay" of San Francisco.

 this species a plant which I feel may perhaps be undescribed.
