198 CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE NATIONAL HERBARIUM. 



Kallstroemia hirsutissima Vail in Small, Fl. Southeast. U. S. 670. 1903. 

 "Dona Ana Co.," E. 0. Wooton 564 in 1897. 



Larrea glutinosa Engelm. in Wisliz. Mem. North. Mex. 93. 1848. 

 = Covillea glutinosa (Engelm.) Rydb.

RUTACEAE. 



Astrophyllum dumosum Torr. Pac. R. Rep. 2: 161. 1855. 



— Choisya clumosa (Torr.) A. Gray. 



"On the Organ Mountains," Pope in 1854. 



This interesting plant is not known to occur in the Organs proper, but it is found 

 just to the north in the San Andreas Range, and perhaps it was first collected there. 

 Whether or not it is found in the Franklin Mountains to the south I do not know. 

 Pope passed through the pass between the Organs and the San Andreas, so that it is 

 probable that he saw the shrub there. 



Ptelea formosa Greene, Contr. Nat. Herb. 10: 59. 1906. 

 "Sierra Blanca," August 17, 1897, E. 0. Wooton 657, at 2,120 meters. 

 Collected at Gilmores Ranch on Eagle ('reek. 



Ptelea neomexicana Greene, Contr. Nat. Herb. 10: 68. 1906. 



"In the Black Range," October 4, 1904, at 2,270 meters, 0. li. Metcalfe 1479. 



Ptelea parvula Greene, Contr. Nat. Herb. 10: 64. 1906. 



"Summit of the Sierra Blanca," August 1, 1897, E. O. Wooton 658. 



Doctor Greene says, in discussing this plant, that it was collected at an "altitude 

 of 6,300 feet, which is about that of the summit." This is a mistake, for the summit 

 of the range reaches an elevation of almost 12,000 feet. The specimens were collected 

 at the Mescalero Agency, which is much lower. 



Ptelea subvestita Greene, Contr. Nat. Herb. 10: 67. 1906. 



"Dry hills about Silver City and Fort Bayard," July 20, 1880, E. L. Greene.

Ptelea villosula Greene, Contr. Nat. Herb. 10: 60. 1906. 



"Known only from the isolated Organ Mountains," July 11 1897, E. O. Wooton 134. 

 One of the more abundant shrubs in the Organs, found only at the lower altitudes. 



P0LYGAIACEAE. 



Monnina wrightii A. Gray, Smiths. Contr. Knowl. 5: 31. 1853. 



"Crevices of rocks, mountain sides, near the copper mines," Wright 938 in 1851. 



EIIPHORBIACEAE. 



Acalypha neomexicana Muell. Linnaea 34: 19. 1865. 

 "In Novo-Mexico," Wright 1817 and 1819 in 1851. 

 Doubtfully New Mexican. 



Argyrothamnia neomexicana Muell. Linnaea 34: 147. 1865. 

 =Ditaxis neomexicana (Muell.) Heller. 

 "In Novo-Mexico," Wright 643 and 1797. 

 The first of these numbers is certainly Texan; the second may be New Mexican.
