30_16 Barstow 2100 ft. No. 5820. Encelia eriocephala Gray. Stony hillslopes. A beautiful yellow, clear, rather pale or rather light yellow but clear, worderfully clear, warm and lively. It is a fine color and the Yellow Aster Mine is said to have been named for it. It is called "Yellow Aster" in the desert. Rays 13, 13, not notched but unequally erosulate altho not strongly as much. Rays 8 or 9 lines long and 6 or 7 lines wide. No. 5821. Malvastrum rotundifolium Gray. Eremalche. Corolla pink-crimson, its aestivation of petals in anthesis so as to make a globose flower. Stony hillsides. Cont. on p.27. No. 5822. Nemacladus. Very easily overlooked, forming a filmy cloud on the ground. Calyx lobes ovate. Cor. lobes oblong, the 3 of the lower lips and the 2 laterally spreading one of the upper lip much alike. Cont. on p.23 (See p. 90.) |
30_17 29 Apr. 1914. No. 5823 Mimulus mohavensis Lemmon Det A.L.G. Its entire habit is that of the dwarf mimuli of the Eunanus section. The corolla in its regular limb recalls some of the species like Mimulus (Eunanus) douglasii. But I recall no Mimulus which has a plane limb with the throat like a central circle cut into it, - no sloping into throat at all; the throat is an abrupt tube, as abrupt as can be. And the color is different, especially different as to parts, the white on the tips of the lobes rather than in centre, though the very margin of throat is whitish. I know of no Mimulus either which is spurred or saccate at base of the throat, for the throat is long and tube-like and the proper tube very short indeed. See over. |
