* This would be the proper place to call attention to that most remarkable plant described and 

 figured by Dr. Torrey (Ann. Lye. Nat. Hist. N. York, 1864), Ammobroma Sonoh^:, Torr., growing near 

 the upper end of the Gulf of California, and mnch used by the Papago Indians as a food. It is roasted 

 or dried, and, after being ground with the mesquit beans, used as a "pinole." "Simply roasted, it has 

 somewhat the taste of a sweet potato, only far more delicate." It is among the desiderata in our collec- 

 tions.
