Calyx with very slender, obary pubescent exo. To-
wards tip. Coroles 2 (1 of which only one seems to be
developing). Most adv. ovary looks as though fork
might be curved with long beaks.
But guess is L. eriofoliusus Greene J553; M 350
(ford. var Neermanii Ottley as more common.
5-25-39 Micropus Californicus F.vM. J1061; M 538
Fr. Cuyamaca Lake with Thermopsis. Exactly as
ill (T) and as desc (b except that R.B.T does not under-
stand “receptacular bracts ---- tipped with
scarious appendage” (M). Bracts now rounded
over top.) This tip is the fork, the scarious lateral
appendage shown in (T) Fig 9456 which R.B.T
has been considering remainder of corolla.
5-25-39 Cryptantha
Fl. on ridge pr. Inspiration Point. Perhaps only a form
of C. intermedia Greene J848; M429. But effect dif-
ferent from C. i- as seen elsewhere. Corolla tiny (less than
2mm diam). Nutlets 1.5 mm long, ovate, acute, def.
papillae on back. Bristles on calyx somewhat
tanney as fr. forms. Consider poss. ? some form
of C. muricata Neel vs Maebe M430: C. muricula-
ta Greene J848.
