4. Habenaria hyperborea, R. Br. Common by creeks over 

 8,000 feet in the Sangre de Cristo Range. 



5. H. dilatata, Gray„ Porter and Coulter, "Fl. Colorado."

 white. Near Ula, locally common. 



13. S. mucronatum, Michx., near Short Creek, rather rare. 

 Grows on drier ground than anceps, and is probably a variety 

 of it.

 Eastwood. 



15. Allium mutabile, Michx. Porter and Coulter, "Fl. Colo- 

 rado"

 at West Cliff.

 with the markings of the flower best developed. 



29. C. gunnisoni immaculatus, Ckll., mot rare, near Short 

 Creek. 



30. C. gunnisoni purus, Ckll., near Short Creek, often on
