Bot. Sulph. 13 (1844): Astragalus candidissimus^ Watson, Bibliogr. Index, 191 (1878), not of Ledebour, FL Alt. iii. 309 (1829). Known as yet only from Magdalena Bay, Lower California, where it may be rediscovered, perhaps at no very distant day. It may well take this geographical name, its original one under Phaca being long preoccupied.
