† This plant is figured in the U. S. report on the Mexican Boundary, Botany, Tab. XLII. The same name is applied in South America to Erythraea Chilensis, but the plant above mentioned was doubtless gathered by our authority, as it is in common use in California as a domestic remedy, and popularly known as " Canchalagua."
