Evidently allied to C. ciliosum of Pursh. Besides the leaves 
being ciliated at their margins, which is the character of that 
plant, having them also decidedly pubescent, especially on the 
under side ; the upper connate leaves alone being almost gla* 
brous. The flowers are large, handsome, and of a golden yellow 
colour, slightly hairy, with a long slender tube, which is a little 
inflated at the base, the limb very unequally 2-lipped. The 
stem is climbing, 6-8 feet high, hairy. On the older stems and 
branches the leaves are petiolated, on the younger ones ses- 
sile.

Baccce duae basi connatae, biloculares, polyspermae. Corolla 
infundibuliformis, subaequalis. Calyx quinquedentatus. 
Xylosteum oblong flolium '; baccis coadunatis, foliis oblongk 
lanceolatisque obtusis junioribus praecipue cprollisque pube- 
scentibus.

treal. FI. July. 
A shruh of about four feet in height, much branched, with 
pale glabrous bark. Leaves lanceolate, and very pubescent on

slightly pubescent beneath in the older ones, veiny. Peduncles 
about an inch long. Germens coadtmate, producing two yellow- 
ish pubescent flowers. Bracteas two, excessively minute, broad- 
ly ovate, appressed, and, as well as the scarcely lobed calyx, 
fflabrous. Berries red.
