ABSTRACT A new species of monkeyflower, Mimulus sookensis, is described. This species is found throughout the southern portion of Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands of British Columbia, the San Juan Islands of Washington state, the Willamette and Umpqua River Valleys in Oregon, and has been collected at one location in Mendocino County, California. Mimulus sookensis is a tetraploid species (n 5 28) derived from the predominately outcrossing Mimulus guttatus DC. (n 5 14) and the predominately self-pollinating Mimulus nasutus Greene (n 5 14). Mimulus sookensis is similar phenotypically to the small-flowered M. nasutus, but differs in chromosome number, height, and by a slightly more narrowed corolla tube than that of M. nasutus. It is commonly found on wet hillsides, seeps, cutbanks, and in roadside ditches, often co-occuring with M. guttatus but infrequently with M. nasutus. Key Words: Allotetraploid speciation, Mimulus, Mimulus guttatus, Mimulus nasutus, monkeyflower, new species, Oregon, Vancouver Island.

TABLE 1. COMPLETE LIST OF PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED MIMULUS TAXA WHICH MIGHT HAVE BEEN A DESCRIPTION OF M. SOOKENSIS,WITH A DESCRIPTION OF HOW THEY ARE DIFFERENT FROM M. SOOKENSIS. Taxa are listed in alphabetical order, although subspecies and varieties are listed in parentheses if variety or subspecies was given specific rank. For synonyms examined, three sources were used: the synonyms listed in Grant (1924) and Pennell (1951) for M. nasutus, and the synonyms listed for both M. guttatus and M. nasutus in IPNI. Many of the large flowered varieties of M. guttatus were not included in this list for the purpose of brevity. All references are included in the literature cited. Evidence sources refers to all herbarium specimens, drawings and descriptions, in both the nomenclatural citation and established floras or monographs, that were used in determining differences. For each candidate taxa, the characters that most easily illustrate the difference between the listed taxa and M. sookensis are described for the listed taxa.
