[337] Plants of the Rocky Mountains—Supplement III. 
—This is apparently the commonest species and of widest range west of the 
Rocky Mountains, extending from Russian America to Southern Califor¬ 
nia. The name given by Bongard is,much the earliest, but not a good 
one, being founded upon what, I believe, is only a northern form of Ben- 
tham’s C. hispida (a later and scarcely more appropriate name), with a 
less developed corolla. The length of the galea appears to be subject to 
variation in this species, as in C.pallida , and the calyx-segments still more 
so. To the present species may be referred : C. coccinea, Lindl. Bot. Reg. 
t. 1136 (non Spreng.), which, as its calyx-segments are described as being 
dilated and retuse, Mr. Bentham should rather have referred to his C. 
Douglasii. Euchroma any us t folia and E. Bradburii, Nutt.! in Jour. 
Acad. Philad. 7, p. 44, 47 (1834), both hirsute forms with deeply cleft 
and narrow calyx-segments. Castilleia hispida , Benth. in Hook. F*l. Bor. 
Am. & in DC. Prodr., 10, p. 532. C. Douglasii , Benth. in DC. 1. c. 
p. 530 ; the commoner form, with oblong or more dilated and slightly 
lobed or cleft calyx-segments. C. desertorum , Geyer in Hook. Kew Jour. 
Bot. 5, p. 258, which is just Nuttall’s E. angustifolia , but with partly 
yellow bracts. E. macrocalyx , E. villosa :, E. laciniata , and E. viscosa, 
Nutt, in herb. Acad. Philad. 
C. pallida, Kunth. Inferne ssepius glabra vel glabrata, caule versus 
apicem calycibusque villosis: folia inferiora ssepissjgie integra (e forma 
lineari ad ovato-lanceolatam), floralia vulgo pi. m. incisa vel laciniata et 
albido-colorata : calycis segmenta bifida seu biloba: galea aut breviuscula 
aut elongata.—The *>o^ern snecie® extending round the world
