460 SUPPLEMENT. 



22. POLIOMfNTHA, Gray. P. 361, add a third species : — 



P. glabrescens, Gray. Prutescent, a foot or two high, caneseently puberulent, at length 

 somewhat glabrate, paniculate, very leafy : leaves linear-oblong, 3-5 lines long, obtuse, 

 veinless and glabrate above, conspicuously punctate : calyx-teeth short, erect, ovate or tri- 

 angular : corolla white, with purple dots on the lower lip, villous outside, hardly thrice the 

 length of the calyx, which equals the tube ; this pilose-annulate within ; rudiments of the 

 sterile filaments minute. — Hemsl. Biol. Centr.-Am. Bot. ii. 549 ; Watson, Proc. Am. Acad, 

 xviii. 137. — At Maxon Spring, W. Texas, near the Rio Grande, Havard. (Adj. Coahuila, 

 Mex., Palmer.) 



23. HEDEOMA, Pers. P. 363, in place of the variety substitute the 

 species, 



H. Reverchoni. A rigid suffruticulose perennial, a span to a foot high, equably and 

 closely leafy to the top, puberulent : leaves elliptical, coriaceous, half-inch long or less, the 

 floral hirsute beneath and on the margins : flowers half-inch long : corolla almost twice the 

 length of the strongly hirsute or hispid calyx. — H. Drummondi, var. Reverchoni, p. 363. — 

 Common in the mountains of Kendall Co., as well as of Brown Co., W. Texas, 1877, 1885, 

 Eeverchon. 



26. ACANTHOMlNTHA, Gray. A second species, with similar aspect 

 and bracteal leaves, differs remarkably in the flowers, most so in the upper lip of 

 the corolla. The shorter and smaller lower lip of the calyx in both species is 

 erect and appressed to the upper in fruit. 



A. ilicifolia, Gray, p. 365. Add : Cusps of the oblong calyx short, not longer than the 

 teeth : upper lip of corolla straight and erect, entire ; lower much larger, saccate at base, 

 its lobes roundish, lateral ones recurved, middle one broad and deeply 2-lobed : anther-cells 

 of fertile stamens confluent at dehiscence ; posterior stamens abortive, reduced to small fila- 

 ments with rudimentary anthers. — Add : Hook f. Bot. Mag. t. 6750. — This singular plant 

 abounds near San Diego and southward, and has been distributed by Prirujle, Orcutt,. &c. 



A. lanceolata, Curran. Stouter, pubescent : canline leaves lanceolate or oblong, spar- 

 ingly spinulose-dentate ; teeth of the bracteal ones long-aristate : calyx more elongated ; 

 the teeth long-aristate ; middle one of the upper lip erect and the lateral turned forward in 

 fruit ; lower lip 2-parted, its lanceolate segments tipped with shorter awns : corolla with 

 narrow and longer upper lip somewhat falcate-incurved (in the bud strongly incurved over 

 the lower), 2-cleft at apex ; lower nearly one half shorter, less saccate at base ; its lobes ob- 

 long and entire, the middle one longer and narrower : all four anthers polliniferous and 

 their cells distinct, but those of the posterior stamens smaller : style sparsely pilose. — Bull. 

 Calif. Acad. i. 13. — California, a single specimen found in Alameda Co., by E. Brooks, 1878. 

 Collected abundantly in Slack's Canon, Monterey Co., 1885, by Mrs. Layne-Curran herself. 



28. SALVIA, L. P. 366, add: — 



S. BERNARDfNA, Parish, fide Greene, Bull. Calif. Acad. i. 211, is to all appearance a hybrid 

 between S. Columbarice and Audibertia stachyoides, a single plant collected at San Bernardino, 

 Parish. Both the parents were growing in the vicinity, and the species are much visited by 

 bees. 



S. Greggii, Gray, p. 368. Add: Hook. f. Bot. Mag. t. 6812. Corolla with crimson lower 

 lip. — To § 4 add the following, which need separate subdivisions. 



S. Regla, Cat. Shrubby, minutely scabrous-puberulent ; leaves broadly deltoid-ovate or 

 subcordate, inch long, serrate, slender-petioled, those subtending the flowers similar : calyx 

 short-tubular or campanulate, becoming inflated and tinged with red ; the lips short and
