1 68 CARL SKOTTSBERG 



stigma subglobosum, styli apice manifeste crassius; calyces fructiferi parum aucti, 

 diam. cr. 5 mm, lobis magis triangularibus baccae submaturae accumbentibus; 

 baccae submaturae globosae, 6 — 8 mm diam.; semina oblique reniformia, valde 

 applanata, 2:1,5:0,5 mm, minute reticulata; granula sclerotica in bacca non 

 reperi. 



Masafuera: In forests. On the Sanchez plain, 515 m (fl. Z5 /a 17, no. 526); 

 near the Chozas village (fl.-unr. fr. 3 /s 17, no. 363). 



Area of distribution: Endemic in Masafuera. 



Nicotiana L. 



101. N. cordifolia Phil. — Johow, Est. 83; Skottsberg, Stud. 7, 

 Taf. 6 Fig. 4. 



Masafuera: Coast cliffs close to the landing place near Q. de las Casas 

 (fl. 10 /2 17, no. 1220); Q. de las Vacas, on the canyon wall, not far from the 

 entrance, scattered specimens (also observed by JOHOW and by the writer in 

 1908, only locality known hitherto; fl.-fr. 10 /2 17, no. 392); Q. Angosta, in the 

 gorge; Q. del Varadero, numerous fine shrubs near the entrance; along the 

 shore of Tierras Blancas, not uncommon (fl.-fr. 17 /g 17, no. 399). 



Area of distribution: Endemic in Masafuera. 



Scrophulariaceae. 

 Mimulus L. 



102. M. parviflorus Lindl. — JOHOW, Estud. 82. 



var. externa nov. var. — A plantis in Chile lectis differt foliis omnibus 

 petiolatis (superioribus brevius sed semper distincte), margine sat grosse et 

 irregulariter serratis, nee non pedunculis petiolum aequantibus sed foliis multum 

 brevioribus. Planta perennis pilosa. 



Masafuera: Germain! — Q. de las Casas (also observed by Johow), wet 

 places under overhanging rocks etc.; Q. de las Vacas (fr. 18 /a 17, no. 497); 

 Q. Angosta, at the waterfall; Q. de la Loberfa (fl.-fr. 17 /2 17, no. 486). 



It is hardly possible to ascertain the right position of the insular form 

 unless all the material from the continent is revised. Germain's specimens 

 were labelled M. parviflorus var. by PHILIPPI, and JOHOW remarks that the 

 Masafueran plant differs from the continental one in the short pedicels and in 

 the pubescence. As all specimens collected in Masafuera are of the same kind, 

 while there is no similar form in the collections from Chile, I have described 

 the former as a variety. It is not impossible that M. pilosiusculus Kunth from 

 Peru is the same, but as I have not seen authentic material and the descrip- 

 tion is very brief, I must leave this question open. 



Area of distribution: M. parviflorus is common in central and south 

 Chile.
