Calyx 5 - G-parted ; the divisions slender-subulate, carinate. Corolla campan- 

 ulate, not appendaged or gland-bearing ; the tube shorter than the 5 or 6 obovate or 

 oblong ample lobes. Filaments filiform, borne in the throat. Anthers oblong, not 

 twisted. Style liliibrm, r per.sistcut : stigma of 2 broad plates. Capsule ovoid, inany- 

 sceded. — Glaucous annuals or biennials ; with oblong partly clasping leaves, and 

 showy slender-peduncled flowers ; the corolla generally sky-blue or lavender-color. 

 Of the two published species, one, E. Russelianum, very ornamental in cultivation, 

 belongs to Texas and adjacent districts. E. gracile, Engelm. ined., of Northern 

 Mexico, is perhaps a slender variety of it. The remaining less showy species is — 



1. E. exaltatum, < rrisebach. A foot or two high : leaves cordate-clasping and 

 often connate, 1 to 3 indies long: corolla about an inch long; its lobes nearly 

 oblong and only twice the length of the tube : capsule elliptical-oblong, very obtuse.

2. L. effusa, Gray. Resembles L. tenuifolia, but more diffusely much branched 

 from an annual root: leaves apparently all entire, short-filiform, from half to a 

 fourth id' an inch long (but the lowest are wanting) : flowers loosely panicled: calyx- 

 teeth very short, pointed from a broad base: corolla barely halt' an inch long, 

 "pink" or purple ; tin- cuneatc and truncate obscurely 3-toothed lobes as long as 

 I be 1 ube (which little surpasses the calyx) and nearly equalling the declined incurved 

 capillary filaments and style. — Proc. Am. Acad. xi. 86, where a section, Giliopsis, 

 is proposed for this very Gilia-like species and L. tenuifolia.

§ 3. Perennials, sometimes woody below; the pubescence hispid or hirsute: flowers 

 densely clustered : leaves with mi'lulale or sinuate-toothed margins, sessile. 



5. N. Rothrockii, I tray. A span or two high from a perennial root, cinereous-

 long and sharp ( Wiffandioiike) bristles: leaves lanceolate-oblong, obtusely pinnati-

 hardly at, all dilated upward, half an inch long, nearly equalling the corolla: seeds 

 rather few, large (almost, a line long), oval, closely reticulate pitted.
