250 Enumeration of Plants of the Rocky Mountains. 



237. Veronica alpinus, L. 



238. Gerardia aspera, Benth. Valley of the Platte. 



239. 240, 241. Castilhia pallida, Eunth. With red bracts, there- 

 fore verging to C. miniata, Dougl., which I conclude to be only a red- 

 bracted variety of C. septenlrionalis, Lindl., which is the form of C. pal- 

 lida, with long, well- developed galea. For a revision of the genus, see 

 Supplement III, infra. 



242. Caxtilleia pallida, Kunth; nearer the type of the species (c;. i>f 

 hirica, Lindl.) and C. occidentalis, Torr. 



245. Castilleia pallida ; the taller and broader-leaved form with longer 

 galea, like the plant of the White Mountains of New Hampshire, C. sep- 



243. Castilleia hreviflora. Euchroma hreviflora, Nutt. in herb. Acad, 

 Philad. 



244. Castilleia integra. Gray, 1. c. 



246. Castilleia linariifolia, Benth. The same as Fremont's plant. 



247. Orthocarpus luteus, Nutt. 



248. Pedicularis racemosa, Benth. in Hook. Fl., &c. Fine specimens 

 of a rare and interesting species. "Grows in patches near the Unvito 

 trees. Leaves dark-green and shining. Flowers yellowish-white. Juiy» 

 August." 



249. Pedicularis bracteosa, Benlh. 1. c. "Near the foot of alpme 



250.' Pedicularis Groenlandica, Retz. Obs. 4, 1. 1. P. surrecta, Benth. 

 1. c. ; a form with larger flowers and longer beak. Torrey was qiiiW 

 right, as it appears, in referring this plant to P. Groenlandica. VT. 

 Parry's specimens well accord with the figure of Retz, except that the 

 beak is perhaps a little longer. Bourgeau collected it in the S^^. ,'' 

 wan district with the beak no longer than Bentham states it to be m toe 

 Greenland plant. In the Rocky Mountains it is " not uncommon o 

 the borders of subalpine marshes, or of high alpine ridges; in the lor- 

 mer stations tall and slender ; in the latter shorter and stronger; flowers 

 reddish-purple." 



251. Pedicularis Parryi, (sp. nov. sect. Rhyncoloph(S, Bunge, sea 

 JEdentularum, inter Unciatas et Scapiformes, Benth.) : glabernma; ca 

 nltra-semipedali subnudo ; foliis lineari-lanceolatis pectinato-pinnatipa
