550 SCROPHULARIACE^E. Antirrhinum. 



varying to glabrous : leaves lanceolate to oblong-ovate : flowers comparatively large 

 (half-inch long) : sepals or at least the oblong upper one equalling the tube of the 

 corolla, the others linear : saccate base of the corolla broad : style slender, as long 

 as the capsule. — A. Coulterianum, var. appendiculatum, Durand, 1. c. 11, t. 11. 



Var. Bolanderi, Gray, 1. c, a form growing in the shade of Redwoods, has 

 broader and thinner leaves, those on tortile branchlets orbicular, and an unusually 

 large posterior sepal. — A. Breweri, var. (?) ovalifolium, Gray, 1. a, may be a form of 

 this with shorter calyx. 



Wooded places, apparently common throughout the western part of the State ; the variety, 

 Marin Co., Bolander. 



7. A. Breweri, Gray, 1. c. Slender, paniculately branched, more or less viscid- 

 pubescent or puherulent, at first erect and with ffrw tortile branchlets : leaves 

 from oblong-linear to oval (half an inch long) : tube of the corolla (3 lines long) 

 considerably longer than the moderately unequal sepals, narrowly saccate at the 

 base : style subulate, glandular, at length strongly deflexed, and rather shorter than 

 the capsule. 



Lake to Mendocino and Plumas counties, rather common. 



++ ++ Peduncles mostly slender, many of them longer than the flower : tube of the 

 corolla rather shorter than the spreading lips : capsule tipped with the nearly 

 straight style or its persistent base. 



8. A. Nuttallianum, Benth. Yiscidly soft-pubescent, or below glabrous, at 

 length a foot or two high and diffusely much-branched ; the tortile branchlets few 

 or more leaf-bearing than in the preceding : leaves ovate or the lowest slightly cor- 

 date (an inch long), those of the branchlets gradually much diminished and nearly 

 sessile : some of the lower peduncles longer than the flowers, often tortile : sepals 

 ovate or oblong, shorter than (or the broader upper one almost equalling) the tube 

 of the corolla; this 2 or 3 lines long, merely gibbous at base: capsule oblong: seeds 

 sharply and strongly ribbed. 



Common in the southern part of the State, about Los Angeles, San Diego, &c. 



9. A. Kingii, Watson. Glabrous, slender, a span to 2 or 3 feet high, loosely 

 branching, at length producing more or less tortile branchlets : leaves linear or the 

 lower lanceolate, tapering more or less into a petiole : peduncles as long as the 

 calyx, sometimes fully as long as the flower: sepals linear-oblong, slightly glandular; 

 the upper one as long as the corolla (2 or 3 lines long and obtuse) ; the others about 

 the length of its tube, which is merely gibbous at base : capsule globose : seeds 

 pitted and tuberculate. — Bot. King Exp. 215, t. 21. 



Diy valleys, along the western borders of Nevada ( Watson, Lemmon), and east to Salt Lake. 



§ 2. Herbs, with entire or lobed leaves and no prehensile branchlets, mostly climbing by 

 tortile filiform petioles or peduncles,, or by both, mainly glabrous : corolla with 

 the prominent palate wholly or partly closing the throat: capsule and calyx 

 equal-sided or nearly so : seeds as in the preceding : all but the lotoer leaves 

 alternate. — Maurandella, Gray. 



* Annuals, with narrow and short-petioled leaves, but long and filiform prehensile 

 peduncles : ccdyx rather shorter than the globose capside. 



10. A. Strictum, Gray, 1. c. Erect, nearly simple, a foot or two high, some- 

 what pubescent below : lower leaves lanceolate, the upper linear, and the upper 

 floral ones filiform ; the latter much shorter than the tortuous racemose peduncles : 

 corolla violet-purple, half an inch long, gibbous at base ; the palate hairy : capsule 

 crustaceous, tipped with a straight style of equal length. — Maurandia slricla, 

 Hook. & Arn. Bot. Beechey, 375. 



Mountains behind Santa Barbara, Douglas, Brewer.
