56 Contributions from the Gray Herbarium 
CaLirornia: July, 1884, Orcutt, no. 1092; about 20 miles below 
boundary, Cleveland. 
Navarretia virgata (Benth.) Brand, var. oligantha Brand, l. c. 
168, is based on one specimen cited ‘‘ Gesehen nur aus Nieder- 
Californien (Orcutt; Herb. Gray).’’ There are three specimens in 
the Gray Herbarium by Orcutt from Lower California but the only 
one which at all coincides with Brand’s meager description ‘‘ Flores 
singuli vel gemini, bracteae subnullae’’ bears no other data than 
““Mts., Lower California, 1833” and is apparently a glabrate 
variety of G. densifolia. But only the upper portion of the plant is’ 
present; and if this is the specimen Brand refers to, and it seems 
that it must be, his description is misleading.
