gathered at the foot of the Sierra Nevada, by Lieut. Beckwith, (Beckwith's Report, p. 115,) are 
plainly yellow-flowered. "The following is a third and very striking species of the same group, 
(Chylismia of Nuttall,) connecting it with Spheerostigma. 
(Ebiloba, Durand, Pl. Pratten. Calif. in Jour. Acad. Philad. 1855, (the same as Hartweg's, No. 1,728,) appears to be a‏ ٭ 
well-marked species. The petals vary, howev.r, in the degree in which they are obcordate or two-iobed. In specimens‏ 
raised by Dr. Short, from seeds collected in California by Dr. Dayton, the petals (** delicate rose-color, changing to violet’’)‏ 
are nearly two-cleft.—(ray, Mss.‏
