The Hall <Sk Harbour plant was distributed as Conioselinum Fischeri. 
j* j* Pacijic species. 
8. L. apilfolium Benth. & Hook. Gen. PI. i. 912. Stems 
2 to 4 feet high, few-leaved or almost naked, pid:)erulent in the 
inflorescence: leaves mostly radical, teruate or biternate, then once 
or twice pinnate; the segments ovate, laciniately pinnatifid to 
inches long): umbel of numerous rays, with involucels of 
several narrowly linear elongated bractlets ; rays (fruiting) about 
2 inches long; pedicels 2 to 4 lines long: fruit oval, to 2 lines 
long, with short conical stylopodia, and narrow acute ribs: oil- 
tubes 3 to 5 in the intervals, 4 to 8 on the commissural side: seed 
with round back and more or less deeply concave face, and a 
prominent central longitudinal ridge. (Fig* 91 .) — Cynaptum 
apilfolium Nutt. Torr. & Gray, FI. i. 641. 
■ Chiefly in the mountains oi Oregon (represented in older collections by 
Hall 207, ai:d recently by Howell 6, Henderson 1589, Cusick 1058 and 1391, 
Kellogg d: Harford 314); and extending southward into California, Yose- 
mite Valley (Bolander), Big Tree Hoad and Ebbett’s Pass {Brewer), Donner 
Lake {Torrey), Tamal Pass (Bigeloio), . Siskiyou county (Pringle, in 1882), 
etc.; also probably in British Columbia {Macoun), FI. June. 
It is very evident, from a study of herbarium specimens, that this 
species has been much misunderstood; for while we discover any number 
of sheets labelled L. apiifolium, very few of them prove to be that species. 
The small oval fruits, smaller than in any other species, with their narrow 
ribs and reniform seed-section, easily separate it from other species. Its 
range, apparently limited to the mountains of Oregon and N. California, 
serves well to separate it irom the Colorado L. scopulorum, with which it 
has been confounded. A form apparently rrear L. apiifoUum was collected 
by Henderson (no. 1588) at Oswego, Oregon, May, 1887, and by Howell 
(no. 121) near Waldo, Oregon. The leaves are almost entirely wanting, 
but the fruit is somewhat larger, the seed-face more deeply sulcate, and 
and its central ridge wanting or nearly so. 
9. L. Grayi. Stems 1 to 2 feet high, v/ith leaves all nearly 
radical, and glabrous inflorescence; leaves ternate then pinnate ; 
the segments ovate, laciniately pinnatifid: mnbel of numerous 
rays, with involucels of several narrowly linear elongated bract- 
lets; rays 1 to 2 inches long; pedicels 2 to 4 lines long: fruit nar- 
rowlv oblong, 2 to 2^ lines long, with short conical stylopodia, 
and narrow prominent almost winged ribs: oil-tubes 3 to 5 in the
