A. A. Heller, Collector	, April 18, 1905
Jt'iiaca leucoioDa (jones;
Astragalus leucolobus Jones, Zoe, 4: 270. 1893.
No. 7712, collected April 18, at Girard Station, in the Te-
hachapi mountains, Kern county. It occurred sparingly on
grassy hillsides. The type was collected by “S. B. Parish in
Bear Valley'on San Bernardino Mountain, Cal., June, 1892.”
As originally described the leaflets are “elliptical to oval,” the
“whole plant hoary with close, fine short hairs,” while in Proc.
Cal. Acad. II. 5: 669. 1895, Jones says “A. leucolobus is well
marked by the roundish, long-villous pubescent leaflets.” Our
specimens are not altogether typical, since they agree better with
the later description.
