ing pilose pubescence, the cordate-clasping bases of the leaves, the 
uniformly opposite leaves, the peculiar apex and marginal teeth, and 
the conspicuously stellate tips of the calyx division in bud.

15. ZAUSCHNERIA GLANDULOSA Moxley. Bull. So. Cal. Acad. 
Sci. xv.22. 1916. 
This was described from a specimen collected by Winifern W. Swarth 
on a ridge south of Strawberry Valley, San Jacinto Mts., Sept. 0, 1914. 
In the summer of 1917 Mr. F. M. Fultz collected a plant at Idlewyld 
that was compared with the type sheet by Prof. H. M. Hall, who reports 
that it is as near like it as two plans can well be. Another sheet that 
I refer here without hesitation is in the herbarium of Pomona College, 
collected in Bear Valley, June 1, 1917, by Edwards. 
16. ZAUSCHNERIA HALLII sp. nov. 
Decumbent and branching from the base, 1-3 dm. high; herbage densely 
pilose with spreading white hairs; leaves ovate, sharply denticulate, 
acuminate, usually terminating in an uncinate mucro, pilose on both 
surfaces and densely so on the veins, rarely becoming glabrate in age, 
the largest 22 mm. long, and 10 mm. wide; calyx-tube 11-13 mm. long, 
narrowly funnelform, slightly constricted 3 mm. above the ovary, widen- 
ing to 4-5 mm. at the throat; sepals 7 mm. long, the tips stellate in bud; 
petals 8 mm. long; stamens exserted 1 mm.; style exserted 5 mm.; 
ovary equaling its bract, quadrangular in section, tapering abruptly at 
each end; capsule 18 mm. long, evidently short-pedicellate, attenuate to 
a long (5 mm.) frequently curved beak. 
San Jacinto Mts., Southern California, ridge at west side at 6700 ft. 
altitude, July, 1901, H. M. Hall, No. 2567, type; also Rocky ridges and 
peaks near Tahquitz, alt. 7000 ft., June-July, 1901, H. M. Hall, No. 2330. 
Both sheets in the herbarium of the University of California. 
In the first specimen, which I have selected for the type, the flowers 
are very strikingly colored, the calyx-tube being a dull red, the sepals 
scarlet and the petals a dark purplish maroon. The capsular shape is a 
very noticeable character and distinct from any form that has come 
under my observation, resembling the seed pods of Martynia. The last 
specimen lacks the strikingly colored petals and is somewhat less villous 
but is otherwise identical with the type. 
17. ZAUSCHNERIA PULCHELLA sp. nov. 
Stems simple, apparently 1-5 dm. or less in height, densely hirtellous 
above with white divaricate hairs, glabrate below; internodes one half 
the leaf length or less; leaves narrowly lanceolate, 25 mm. long, 5 mm. 
or less wide, hirtellous on both surfaces and ciliate on the margins with 
short white hairs, margin entire or with one or two minute callous teeth, 
acute and tipped with a brown uncinate mucro, lateral veins obscure, but
