PLANTS OF GUADALUPE ISLAND. 283 



Perityle Giayi, Rose. 



lu flower and frequent in the canyon above the northeast landing. (This is the 

 r. Emory of Watson's and P. Calif ornica of Greene's list.) 

 Centaurea Meliteusis. L. Napu thistle. 



Along the trail near north end. Collected also by Dr. Palmer iji 1889. 

 Sonclius oleraceus, L. Sow thistle. 

 Gilia Nevinii, Gray. 



In fruit. (The Oilia multicaulis millefolia, Gray of Watson's list.) 

 Phacelia floribunda, Greeue. 



In fruit and flower. Canyon at the north end. 

 Kryuitzkia maritima, Greene. 



Wrongly referred in Watson's report on Palmer's collection of 1875 to Eritrichium 

 angustifoUuiu Torr.; included later by Gray under his K. ramosissima, from which 

 it was separated by Greene. Bull. Cal. Acad. 2 : 204. 



Mirabilis Californica, Gray. 

 Chenopodium murale, L. 

 Atriplex Palmeri, Gray. 



In fruit. In the central valley at south end. 

 Cypressus Guadalupensis, Watson. Guadalupe cypress. 



Excellent young flowers and fruits. Its time of flowering must therefore be much 

 later than C. macrocarpa, the Monterey cypress, with which Dr. Masters has been 

 inclined to unite it. The bark on sections of limbs 6 inches in diameter scales oft" in 

 irregular flakes, suggesting the Platanus, and photographs of the native groves show 

 a broad, round head in isolated trees. The stringy bark and spire top of C. macrocarpa 

 are well known. Moreover, the seeds in the latter are nearly twice as many and often 

 only half as large as in C. Guadalupensis. 

 Fiuus insignis, Dougl. var. Binata. Engelm. Guadalupe pine. 



Few, not more than fifty, on the northeast ridge. 



Phyllospadix Torreyi, Wats. Sea grass. 



Scarce, near the west anchorage and the south anchorage. Only a single flower- 

 ing branch was obtained and no fruit. The leaves and spadix are more attenuated 

 than in the California plant, but. the inflorescence and abundant root-stocks and 

 leaves are of similar habit. Not reported so far South elsewhere. 



Brodiaea capitata, Beuth. 



Bulbs of what is apparently this species were obtained. 

 Erythaea edulis, Watson. Guadalupe palm. 



Prof. R. L. Green obtained photographs of this beautiful island palm and observed 

 it in three canyons opening the central valley above the south anchorage, in one canyon 

 on the west side, and on the northeast side. Fifty or more trees in each canyon. 



Polypogon tnonspeliensis, Desf. 



Common about the springs. 

 Hordeum murinum, L. Wild barley grass. 



Abundant over the island, especially in the more fertile northern part.
