- No. 8098, collected July 15, along the electric railroad be-
tween Grass Valley and Nevada City, Nevada county, growing
occasionally in company with H. californica. It is not quite so
tall (as that species, and is distinguishable at some distance by
Its darker color, which is Violet-blue, and by the wider, funnel-
form flower with spreading-Jobes. The,internal structure is also
quite different. One point never brought out in descriptions
tnade.from herbarium specimens is. that the staminodia are erect,
standing entirely away from the stamens, and distant from them
