CALIFORNIA.— SUPPLEMENT. 
[ OnagrariecB. 
Our only specimen has the capsule hirsute ; the seeds are horizontal, as in CB. decumbens and CE. lepida, 
from both of which, however, it is readily distinguished, by the greater length of the fruit. The leaves are 
more pointed than in the cultivated form of the species, and slightly toothed. 
6. CE. (Godetia) lepida. Lindl. Bot. Reg. t. 1849. ^ 
This nearly agrees with CE. procumbens in the form of the fruit, but it is more hairy ; the stem of the 
present species is erect, and the leaves, especially in the wild specimens, are slightly hairy. They are, how- 
ever, too closely allied. 
7. CE. (Godetia) viminea. Dongl. — var. parviflora? 
Of this variety, the only specimen in the collection has flowers as small as those of CE. quadrivulnera, 
from which it differs by the canescent, not hairy, fruit, and by the infundibuliform tube of the calyx being 
longer than the ovarium, even longer in that respect than in the usual form of CE. viminea. The calycine 
segments are as long as the corolla, while in the common state they are only half its length. If new, it may 
be distinguished from the other species of Godetia as follows : — Calycis tubo infundibuliformi ovario longiore, 
laciniis corollam sequantibus, staminibus corolla duplo brevioribus, stylo ultra tubum exserto, stigmatis lobis 
brevibus ovalibus, capsula basi crassiore canescente, seminibus adscendentibus There is likewise another 
plant in the collection, so very closely allied in characters to the common appearance of CE. viminea, that 
we feel unwilling to separate it as a species, without a more numerous set of specimens ; in it the branches are 
acutely angled, and the habit is entirely that of CE. purpurea ; it may be recognised by the following marks : — 
Erecta glabriuscula glaucescens, ramis angulatis apice densifloris, foliis anguste lanceolatis acuminatis denti- 
culatis, calycis tubo infundibuliformi ovarium submquante, laciniis staminibusque corolla duplo brevioribus, 
stylo ultra antheras exserto, stigmatis lobis brevibus ovalibus, capsula basi crassiore demum glabra, seminibus 
adscendentibus. 
8. CE. (Godetia) tenella. Cav var. (3. tenuifolia. Lindl. ? 
We have two forms in the collection, which we can scarcely distinguish from the narrow-leaved variety of 
Dr Lindley, or CE. tenuifolia of Cavanilles : the one is pale-flowered ; the other has deep purple small 
flowers, exactly resembling our CE. tenella, var. parviflora, from Chili. It differs from CE. viminea by the 
very short calyx-tube, and from CE. Romanzovii (which appears to be occasionally cultivated, under the 
name of CE. tenella, in our gardens) by the long exserted stigma. Perhaps, however, these characters are 
variable, and, if so, several of the allied species from the West Coast of America may likewise be referred to 
CE. tenella. 
9. CE. (Godetia) rubicunda. Lindl. Bot. Reg. t. 1856. 
Mr Douglas’ specimens are imperfect, and, as far as regards the colour of the flowers, resemble the figure 
of CE. roseo-alba, in Sweet Brit. FI. Card. t. 268, 'more than that given by Dr Lindley ; the leaves are, 
however, much narrower and more acute, and the species, along with the hybrid CE. bifrons, Bot. Reg. t. 
1405 (not of Sweet Br. FI. Card. 2d Ser. t. 386, which has yellow flowers), tends to unite CE. roseo-alba to 
CE. Lindleyi. All the three species have ascending seeds, a capsule attenuated at the base, with the 
stigma-lobes linear, and are perhaps most easily distinguished thus 1. CE. roseo-alba, stem erect, leaves 
oblong or lanceolate-oblong, obtuse. — 2. CE, rubicunda, stem erect, leaves acuminated. — 3. CE. Lindleyi, 
stem diffuse, ascending. 
10. CE. (Godetia) Lindleyi. Dough? — CEn. macrantha. Nutt. ms. (certe). 
In this the stigma-lobes are rather shorter than the usual form of the plant from the Columbia.
