CALIFORNIA.— SUPPLEMENT. 
\_Scrophularinea. 
Mr Bentham says that (all ?) the leaves are cordato-amplexicaul, but our specimens we can only distinguish 
from M. guttatus by their being pubescent towards the extremity, and somewhat viscous, with the calyx less 
inflated and not contracted at the mouth. 
6. M. guttatus {De Cand.) ; glaber, foliis eroso-dentatis inferioribus petiolatis sub- 
Jyratis superioribus rotundatis cordato~amplexicaulibus, calycibus ovatis fructiferis inflatis 
ore contracto, dentibus ovatis supremo latissimo, corolla calycem duplo superante. Benth. 
1. c. Hook, et Arn. supra, p. 152 {ex parte) — M. luteus. Pursh — Bot. Mag. t. 1501. 
7. yi. Jlo7'ibundus {Dougl.) ; difFusus laxe pilosus viscosus, foliis petiolatis lato-ovatis 
subdentatis basi truncatis rotundatisve, calyce (parvo) ovato tubuloso subsequaliter trun- 
cato brevissime et acute dentato. Benth. 1. c. p. 29. Lindl. Bot. Beg. t. 1125. 
We have not received this from Douglas, but Mr Bentham mentions it as having been found by him in 
California. 
8. M. nanus ; annuus puberulus, caule perbrevi paucifloro, foliis spathulato-ovatis 
subintegerrimis nervosis, calyce fere sessili oblongo 5-costato ore obliquo breviter 5- 
dentato, corolla (purpurea) calycem 2-4 plo superante basi longe attenuata, capsula 
cliartacea oblongo-lineari calycem superante. Hook. Ic. PI. ined. — a. pluriflorus; corollas 
tubo calycem duplo superante. — suhunijlorus ; corollas tubo calycem 3-4 plo superante. 
A beautiful dwarf species, the length of the flower in /3 (1^ to 2 inches), in almost every instance, exceed- 
ing that of the stem. The corolla is attenuated below into a long and slender almost colourless tube, the 
upper part deep purple. Upper lip much larger and longer than the lower one. Style almost the length of 
the corolla. Stigma bilamellate. Stamens didynamous, each part cruciately approximated and cohering. 
The capsule agrees in the form with Diplacus, Nutt., but is not woody as in that subgenus ; although the 
dehiscence and placenta resemble it more than a true Mimulus. 
1. Veronica serpyllifolia. Linn. — Hook. Flor. Bor. Am. 2.p. 101. 
Hab. Between Henry’s and Smith’s Rivers, Snake Country. Mr Tolmie. 
1. Orthocarpus ; humilis ramosissimus glabriusculus, foliis apice mul- 
tifidis laciniis divaricatis setaceis, dentibus calycinis linearibus viridibus corollam subm- 
quantibus. Benth. Scroph. Ind. p. 12. 
2. O. gracilis {Benth.) ; caulibus numerosis ramosissimis apice pubescentibus, foliis 
apice multifidis laciniis divaricatis iineari-subulatis, dentibus calycinis lanceolato-subulatis 
acutissimis vix coloratis, corollae (purpurascentis?) tubo exserto pubescente, starainibus 
galea brevioribus. Benth. 1. c. 
In this the lower lip is 3-dentate at the apex ; it is also 3-lobed, each lobe being saccate or forming a little 
inflated bag. On account of this structure, it ought perhaps to be placed in the genus Tripkysa of Fischer 
and Meyer, but the lower lip is only lobed, not tripartite as described, perhaps inadvertently, by these 
botanists. 
3. O . Jlorihundus {Benth.) ; glabriusculus ramosissimus, foliis apice pinnatifidis laciniis 
linearibus divaricatis, dentibus calycinis linearibus viridibus, corollae (luteae) tubo sub- 
exserto glabro, antheris exsertis. Benth. 1. c. 
This we have not seen.
