THE BOTANY OF THE EOUTE. 
MuLGEDiUM PULCHELLUM. Nutt. In Yakima valley, flowering August 20; common. 
Campanula linifolia, Lam. Collected near summit of Cascade range, but common in prairies 
from Vancouver eastward. 
Pyrola dentata. Smith, var. integra. On high wooded hills, east of Mount Adams; August 
12th; in fruit. "This is just the Pyrola dentata figured by Hooker, only that the oblong 
obovate leaves are entire, or, at most, with mere vestiges of a few teeth, in some cases." — Gray. 
Phelipcea carnosa, Torr. & Gray, ined. Tahk prairie, ten miles from base of Mount Adams; 
August 12. Corolla pale purple. 
' ' This, the Orobanche carnosa, Hook. , is certainly a Phelipcea, and a close congener of P. 
Calif ornica and Ludoviciana ; but it invalidates the character of Aphyllon (Anoplanthus, Endl.) 
as to the bracts, rendering it probable that this genus may be merged in Phelipcea, since some 
species of the latter have a nearly regular corolla. These specimens, as to the corolla, corres- 
pond better with Hooker's character than with his figure; indeed, the three lower lobes are 
not even emarginate. The notch of the upper lip varies in depth, as it does in the allied 
species." — Gray. 
Pentstemon procerus, Dougl. Common along the banks of the Yakima and its branches; 
flowring in August, purple ; a foot high. 
P. RiCHARDSONli, Dougl. On the higher parts of the Cascade range eastward; August: 
purple.

found in damp shady places on both sides of the mountains. 
M. Primuloides, Benth. Found only, August 12, on the higher part of the Cascade range; 
yellow. 
Orthocarpus bracteosus, Benth. On the low prairie near the Yakima. August; flower
