ing at maturity: calyx narrowly flask-shaped, 6-12 lines long, equally cleft 

 before and behind, the lobes divided into broadly lanceolate acutish seg- 

 ments : corolla 12-14 lines long, the galea barely as long as the tube; lower 

 lip very short, the 2 broadly deltoid lateral lobes longer than the middle 

 one. On rocky ridges, Swan Lake Valley, Klamath Co. Oregon. 



C. Elmeri Fernald 1 c. Viscid-pilose throughout: stems simple, sol- 

 itary or in small clusters, 8-12 inches high: leaves 1-2 inches long, rather 

 crowded, ascending, the lowest linear-acuminate, the upper lanceolate or 

 oblong- lanceolate, the broader ones indistinctly 3-nerved: bracts oblong or 

 obovate-oblong, entire or slightly lobed at the tip, 12-15 lines long, the 

 lowest green, the uppermost crimson or rose-purple, calyx 8-10 lines long, 

 a little deeper cleft before than behind, the lobes entire or cleft into lacini- 

 ate segments: corolla 12-15 lines long, the green-backed galea half as long 

 as the tube; the lower lip included or slightly exserted, with 3 incurved 

 lobes about % as long as the galea. On Wenatchee Mountain, Washington < 



C. Covilleana Henderson Bull. Torr. Club xxvii, 353. Glandular as 

 well as villous throughout with long crisp hairs: stems numerous from a 

 subvertical rootstock about 8 inches high : leaves narrow, 3-parted above 

 into linear more or less circinate lobes. 12-18 lines long: bracts broader 

 than the leaves, 3-parted and the central segment 2-3-cleft, about equalling 

 the flowers: calyx equalling or slightly surpassed by the corolla, much 

 deeper cleft behind than before, the divisions shortly cleft into lanceolate 

 acute lobes: corolla slightly villous, conspicuously glandular above, with 

 tube twice the length of the lower lip which is somewhat saccate with 3 

 deeply infolded narrow plicae slightly longer than the 3 erect bright-color- 

 ed subconvolute lobes. Among rocks, Soldier Mountain, Idaho. 



C. miniata Dougl. Hook. Fl. ii, 106. Glabrous or nearly so except 

 the inflorescence: stems numerous and tufted on a short rootstock, mostly 

 simple and strict, 1-2 feet high : leaves lanceolate or linear, or the upper 

 ovate-lanceolate, acute, entire or rarely laciniately 3-cleft : bracts from 

 lanceolate to oval, mostl}' bright red. rarely whitish, seldom lobed: spikes 

 short and dense : calyx-lobes lanceolate, acutely 2-cleft: corolla over an 

 inch long, the galea exserted, linear, longer than the tube, the very short 

 lower lip protuberant and callous, as deep as long, with short ovate invo- 

 lute teeth. In damp soil, Alaska to California and the Rocky Mountains. 



C. Suksdorlii Gray Proc. Am. Acad, xxii, 311. Sparsely villous 

 throughout: stems slender, 1-2 feet high, from slender underground creep- 

 ing rootstocks, simple, or sometimes with a few branches above, lower 

 leaves narrowly lanceolate, attenuate, entire, 1-3 inches long, upper ones 

 commonly laciniately 3-lobed, the lateral lobes linear and erect : bracts 

 broadly cuneate in outl ; ne, about an inch long, deeply 3-lobed, the 

 lobes often again cleft or toothed, bright red: spikes short : calyx about 

 equalling the bracts, its oblong, lobes acutely cleft at the apex : corolla 

 over an inch long, the galea exserted, longer than the tube, the very short 

 lower lip exserted, 3-lobed. In wet or marshy places in the Cascade 

 Mountains of Oregon and Washington. 



C. lutea Heller Bull. Torr. Club xxv, 268. Lanate-pubescent throu- 

 ghout: stems clustered, 10-16 inches high : lower leaves narrow lanceolate, 

 the upper ones mostly 3-lobed, the lobes all lanceolate but the lateral ones 

 narrow and acuminate, the middle one usually again 3-lobed with its lateral 

 lobes narrower: bracts pale yellow, or (heir tips somewhat purple-tinged, 

 more unequally lobed or toothed than the leaves, their middle lobes broad 

 and rounded, the others narrowly lanceolate: calyx oblong, about 18 lines 

 long, equally cleft before and behind to the middle, the lobes obtuse, slight- 

 ly dilated and notched at the apex: corolla barely exserted, the galea as 

 long or a little shorter than the tube. Grassy hillsides, mouth of the
