GILIA LACINIATA Ruiz et Pav. (described in Mac!., p. 671, no. 3). 



G. LACINIATA Ruiz et Pav. var. ERECTA (Hieron.) Brand. 



Leaf-segments broader, and somewhat fleshy ; calyx teeth as long as 

 the tube. 



In N. Patagonia, about the mouth of Rio Negro; Mid-Patagonia, 

 Puerto Madryn ; S. Patagonia, by Rio Deseado. 



The type of the species is not known from Patagonia. According to 

 Brand its southern limit is in Argentina, at Sierra de la Ventana in the 

 Province of Buenos Aires. 



Dusen notes in this connection, that a form collected by him in the 

 upper valley of Rio Sta. Cruz represents, according to A. Brand, a transi- 

 tion between G. crassifolia Benth. et Gill, and this last-named variety 

 erecta, of G. laciniata R. & P. 



GYMNOSTERIS Greene. 



Calyx-tube membranaceous with slightly unequal teeth ; corolla salver- 

 shaped ; orange anthers in its throat. Ovules numerous ; seeds winged. 

 Low, annual ; flowers in terminal heads, supported by involucral leaves, 

 instead of foliage leaves. 



G. NUDICAULIS (Hook. & Arn.) Greene. 



Syn. Collomia nudicaulis H. & A., G. nudicaulis A. Gray (described in 



Fl. Pat, p. 671).
