Moist grounds, around San Francisco Bay and northward to Mendocino Co., apparently not 

 rare. 



* * Anthers 2-celled; the lower cell mostly small and imperfect in the first two species: 

 seed with an outer loose and ariUiform coarsely reticulated coat. 



+■ Lower lip of the corolla very broad; the sacs deeper (horizontally) tlian long, 

 ++ Comparatively small: narrow upper lip truncate at the lip : capsule oblong, obtuse. 



13. O. gracilis, Renth. Minutely pubescent, or below glabrous, branched from 

 the base; the slender branches a span or more high: leaves 3-parted into linear- 

 filifonn divisions, or some of the lower nearly entire : upper bracts shorter than the 

 rather closely spicate flowers, the tips of their lobes purplish-tinged : corolla pubes- 

 cent, purplish ; its slender tube twice the length of the calyx ; lower lip decidedly 

 shorter than the upper ; its sacs small but deep, somewhat conical. 



California (near Monterey?), Douglas, NuttaZl. We have only specimens from Douglas. 

 Corolla 7 lines long; the upper lip 2 lines ; lower one a line deep. Seeds broadly oval, in a very 

 loose and lace-like arilliform coat. 



++++ Sacs ampile : tipper lip subulate : capsule ovate: stem simple or few-branclied : 

 spike thichish and commonly dense, at least above. 



14. O. campestris, Renth. Glabrous or nearly so below, above (the calyx and 

 base of bracts) hirsute or hispid, 2 to 4 inches high: leaves and bracts narrow-linear 

 and entire, rarely with a lobe or two : calyx-lobes lanceolate, often united in pairs : 

 corolla white ; the erect and scarious teeth of the lower lip slender and rather 

 conspicuous. — PI. Ilartw. 329. 



Fields in the valley of the Sacramento, Hartweg. Plumas Co., Mrs. Pulsifer Ames. Corolla 

 about three fourths of an inch long : lower lip 2 lines deep. 



1">. O. lithospermoides, Renth. Hirsute above, pubescent below, about a 

 foot high, strict and simple or with some erect branches, very leafy: leaves lance- 

 olate or lanceolate-linear and all but the lower with few or several slender lobes : 

 tin- flora] with a dilated base and somewhat palmate lobes almost equalling 

 tie' crowded llowers : calyx-lobes Linear: coroUa cream-color, "often turning pale 

 rose-color"; the sacs very ventricose (fully 3 lines wide); the teeth short and incon- 

 spicuous. 



Hillsides, and moist meadows ; common through tin- western part of the Stato from San Fran- 

 cisco Bay and the Sacramento northward. Corolla an inch long or rather less. 



+- +- Lower Up of the corolla less ample, surpassed by the subulat< upper one; lit, sacs 

 nut deeper than long: hirsute, strict and simple, <>/• the buy,,- plants brandling, with 



leans ,i,i,l l,,l,,s Hinur ami mostly attenuated : sjiikes leafy: calyx-lobes slen,/, r. 



l<i. O. lacerus, Benth. A span to a foot high, rather soft-hirsute and above 

 viscid : leaves mostly pinnately parted or the upper floral palmately 3-7-clefl into 

 long and narrow divisions or Lobes: leafy spikes at first dense, at length loose: 

 calyx-lobes shorter than the tube: corolla yellow, its sacs about as deep as long. — 

 PI. Ilartw. 329. 0. his],;, his, Watson, Bot. King Exp. 230. in part. &c. 



Open grounds, from the vallej ol the Sacramento [Hartweg] and through the Sierra Nevada, 



where it abounds fr Mariposa Co. to Sierra Valley. Corolla two thirds or half an inch long; 



the tube little or considerably longer than the calyx. Related "n one hand to 0. till 

 in its larger forms, in the smaller ones to 0. hispidus, with which it baa boon confoundi I.
