covered throughout with a fine, but dense, stellate pubescence ; leaves linear- 

 lanceolate to broadly lanceolate, entire, slightly undulate or deeply pin- 

 natifid ; pedicels 3-8" long and in fruit most frequently spreading or 

 deflexed; each half of the pod roundish, from 1-3" in diameter; style h" 

 long; sepals hairy outside, nearly as long as the petals. New Mexico, from 

 Zuni River, near, I think, the location of the first discovery of the plant. 

 Also obtained in Arizona. 



CAPPAR1DE.E. 



Cleome aurea, Nutt. — Boulder, Colo., 1873. Loew. 



Cleome lutea, Hook. — Much like C. aurea, except that the stamens 

 are unequal and unlike; of the six, two are longer, with small, curved 

 anthers, and four are shorter, with mucronate anthers. The figure (tab. 

 xxv in Hook. Fl. Br. Am.) shows by mistake two short and four long 

 anthers. Nevada. 



Cleome Sonorjs, Gra}'.— Annual, glabrous, erect ; leaves trifoliate, 

 with short petioles ; leaflets entire, linear ; pod turgid, somewhat longer 

 than the stipe, which is about £-£ as long as the pedicel ; flowers purplish. 

 Anthers 6, linear. San Luis Valley, Colorado. (761.) 



Cleome integrifolia, T. & G. — Utah. 



Cleomella parviflora, Gray. — Nevada. 



Cleomella longipes, Torr. — Loew. (180.) No locality assigned; 

 probably from Arizona. 



Cleomella obtusifolia, Torr. & Frem. — "Branching from the base 

 and diffuse ; leaflets cuneate-obovate, obtuse ; style filiform. Annual, stem 

 smooth, the branches spreading, about a span long, hairy in the axils. 

 Leaves or petioles an inch or more in length ; the lamina of the leaflets 4- 

 6" long, apiculate with a deciduous bristle, nearly smooth above, strigose 

 underneath. Pedicels solitary and axillary, in the upper part of the 

 branches, longer than the petioles. Calyx much shorter than the corolla, 

 the sepals lacerately 3-5-toothed. Petals yellow, oblong lanceolate, obtuse, 

 about 3" in length. Stamens 6, unequal, a little exserted ; anthers linear- 

 oblong, recurved when old. Torus hemispherical. Ovary on a long slender
