x 20. 
The leaf-section of C. Benthami var. Lindleii shows a sub- 
orbicular or ovate, very obtuse outline. The hypoderm is discon- 
tinuous, and the palissade well-marked. 
In C. Benthami var. arizonica the outline of the section is 
semi-elliptic, very acute at the extremities, dorsally convex, 
flattened on the inner surface. The epidermis is very thick. 
The hypodermal layer is continuous, and the palissade well-marked, 
traversed by four-sided spiral vessels.
