WOOTON AND STANDLEY—NEW PLANTS FROM NEW MEXxiIco. 169 
late, about twice as long, slightly curved upward, all of them sparingly bearded 
in the throat; corolla bluish purple, 12 to 14 mm. long, narrowly funnelform, 
gaping, finely pubescent outside, the upper lip erect, retuse, the lower lip 3-lobed, 
the central lobe largest; stamens 2, surpassing the upper corolla lobe; nutlets

Type in the U. 8. National Herbarium, no. 330465, collected in the White

The plant is most nearly related to H. jucunda Greene, from Durango, Mexico, 
and was distributed under that name, having been determined from the descrip- 
tion alone. Ours, however, is a stouter plant, with flowers about half again as 
large, and very different calyx. The species seems to be on the dividing line 
between the two principal groups of our species: its upper calyx lobes are not 
foliaceous-expanded as in one group, nor narrowly subulate as in the other, but 
are triangular-lanceolate, and they are hispid-ciliate like those of the second 
group. In habit and general appearance our plant resembles H. jucunda, but 
it is a little more leafy and has larger and fewer flowers. 
Salvia earlei Wooton & Standley, sp. nov. 
Tall, slender, herbaceous perennial, 30 to 100 em. high, branched above, the 
stems erect, sometimes 3 or 4 from a single root, finely puberulent throughout; 
leaves linear to narrowly oblong-lanceolate, 4 to 8 cm. long (mostly about 5 
em.) including the petiole, acute, cuneate and decurrent at the base into a 
petiole about 1 cm. long, entire or undulate with occasionally a few obscure 
teeth, glabrate but finely glandular above; flowers in terminal, interrupted, 
glomerate clusters, about 12 flowers in each verticel; calyx 6 to 8 mm. long, 
campanulate-tubular, obscurely 8 to 10-ribbed, becoming somewhat urceolate in 
fruit, densely white or blue tomentose with very fine short hairs, the limb 
short-trunecate, obscurely 2-lipped, the upper lip entire, the lower with 2 minute 
teeth; corolla bright blue to almost violet, about twice as long as the calyx, the 
upper lip notched, erect, tomentose on the back, the lower lip 3-lobed, the middle 
lobe much the largest; style densely bearded with bluish hairs; nutlets smooth, 
brown. ;

of Roswell, in August, 1900, by F. S. and Esther S. Earle (no. 375).

The plant has long been confused with S. farinosa Benth., which it resembles 
very closely as to its flowers, although these are smaller, but the leaves are of 
an entirely different character, much more like those of S. pitcheri Torr. The 
distribution area is farther west than that of the one and farther south than 
that of the other, in a climate much more arid than either of the others 
endures. 
Salvia pinguifolia (Fernald) Wooton & Standley. 
Salvia ballotaeflora pinguifolia Fernald, Proc. Amer. Acad. 35: 523. 1900. 
The type was collected by Wright in 1851 or 1852 (no. 1524), probably in 
New Mexico somewhere near the Copper mines of Santa Rita.
