8. ZAUSCHNERIA VELUTINA sp. nov. Eastwood in MSS. 
Densely silvery appressed-tomentose throughout; stems 4-5 dm. high, 
branching from the base; branches with alternate leaves and very short 
branchlets in all the axils; leaves lanceolate to elliptic lanceolate, the 
floral ovate, the largest 3 cm. long, 10 mm. wide, apex acute and with a 
yellow mucro, the base narrowly sessile, margin entire or obscurely 
mucronate-dentate, lateral veins in the larger leaves distinct, in the small 
obscure; calyx about 2.5 cm. long, tomentose, the lobes 8 mm. long, 
apex obscure in the bud, tube 3 mm. in diameter above the globose bulb 
wmdenmg to 6-7 mm. at throat; petals slightly exceeding the calyx; 
stamens exceeding the petals 2-6 mm.; style clavate; ovary shorter than 
the floral leaves, narrow at base, short-pedicellate, apex scarcely nar- 
rowed about 5 mm. long, appressed-tomentose. 
Collected on the banks of the Russian River, north of Cloverdale, in 
Mendocino County, California, July 9, 1902, by A. A. Heller, no. 5829. 
Type in Herb. Gray. 
"This is perhaps closely allied to Z. tomentella Greene, differing in 
the petals almost equalling the calyx-tube, instead of being half as long, 
the calyx-tube rather thick than slender and the distinctly pedicelled 
ovary. The pubescence can in no way be considered rough, for it is 
distinctly velvety, silvery and silky. It is more closely allied to the 
thicker tubed coast species than the slender tubed Sierra ones."

xx:36. 1907. 
Of this species I have not seen the original description, but I have a 
description drawn up by Miss Eastwood from a duplicate of the type, 
in Gray Herbarium. There was also a specimen in some material I 
borrowed from Mr. Parish, when I made my previous study, which was 
collected by Chas. P. Smith and determined by A. Nelson so that I 
think I know what it is like.
