WOOTON AND STANDLEY—NEW PLANTS FROM NEW MEXiIco. 161 
nately parted into linear, abruptly acuminate, aristate-tipped lobes, tomentose 
or tomentulose, petiolate; flowers numerous, in few-flowered pedunculate or 
sessile clusters arranged in a secund, raceme-like thyrse; pedicels short; calyx 
83 mm. long, green, only slightly scarious, puberulent, cleft to the middle or 
lower into triangular-subulate, pungently pointed lobes; corolla white, the 
tube about 8 mm. long, thick, sharply bent downward just above the calyx, the 
lobes elliptic-oblong, obtuse, narrowed at the base into a short claw, about 4 
mm. long. 
Type in the U. 8S. National Herbarium, no. 233429, collected in the San Luis 
Mountains, September 11, 1893, by Dr. E, A. Mearns (no. 2242). 
A remarkable species, distinguished from all the related ones by its small, 
white flowers and the peculiarly formed corolla tube. Otherwise it suggests 
G. glomeriflora Benth., but that has a very different calyx besides.

This plant is distinct enough from both P. longifolia and P, stansburyi to 
receive specific rank; in fact, it is much more distinct from those species than 
are most of the members of the genus from each other. It is marked chiefly by 
its lower habit, more branched stems, and especially by the short, broad, rather 
crowded leaves. The corollas of our New Mexican specimens have a very small 
limb, only about 13 mm. wide and each lobe of the limb is retuse rather than 
rounded, as in most of our species. 
Phlox tenuis Wooton & Standley, sp. nov. 
Slender perennial 15 to 20 cm. high; stems numerous, erect, tortuous, finely 
villous, slightly glandular; internodes long; leaves linear, 35 to 65 mm. long, 
divaricate, acute, villous; pedicels slender, 12 to 30 mm. long, glandular-villous ; 
calyx 12 to 14 mm. high, densely glandular-villous, the linear-subulate lobes 
about as long as the tube; corolla tube only slightly exceeding the calyx; 
corolla lobes cuneate-oblanceolate, 13 to 14 mm. long, 5 mm. wide, broadly 
rounded at the apex; fruit not seen. 
Type in the U. 8. National Herbarium, no. 306405, collected at Barranca, 
Taos County, May 26, 1897, by A. A. and E. Gertrude Heller (no. 3589). Alti- 
tude 2,070 meters. ; 
On the same sheet with the type, and distributed under the same number, 
are plants of what appear to be P. stansburyi. The collection was distributed
