WOOTON AND STANDLEY—NEW PLANTS FROM NEW MExICcO. 173 
leaves few and remote, lanceolate to narrowly oblong, acute, erect, thick, 
glabrous beneath, minutely puberulent above; inflorescence loosely few-flowered, 
its branches glandular and slightly villous; pedicels mostly slender, sometimes 
1 em. long; calyx 4 mm. high, the lobes elliptic-oblong, acute, glandular-villous ; 
corolla 2U to 25 mm. long, the tube slightly widened upward, the spreading 
lobes oblong, obtuse, bearded in the throat; sterile stamen strongly bearded 
with yellow hairs; capsules conic-ovoid, 6 or 7 mm. high, acute. 
Type in the U. 8. National Herbarium, no. 259061, collected in the moun- 
tains west of Grants Station, August 1, 1892, by E. O. Wooton. 
This belongs to the group of P. confertus and P. procerus, but differs decidedly 
from those species in its larger flowers and loose, few-flowered inflorescence. 
Pentstemon spinulosus Wooton & Standley, sp. nov. 
Stems slender, ascending, 20 to 35 cm. high, purplish, minutely puberulent; 
leaves linear-oblanceolate to linear-lanceolate, numerous, obtuse or acufe, 
slightly reduced upward, glabrous, narrowed at the base or sessile, 5 cm. long 
or less; bracts linear-lanceolate, 1 to 2 cm, long; inflorescence few-flowered ; 
pedicels short, stout; sepals 7 mm, high, the lobes lanceolate, rather abruptly 
acuminate, not scarious, glabrous, the tips spreading; corolla 8 cm. long, di- 
lated in the throat, not bearded, the spreading limb 2 cm. wide; stamens 
included; anthers sagittate, dehiscent for half their length, finely spinulose 
along the sutures. 
Type in the U. S. National Herbarium, no. 156865, collected in the Magdalena 
Mountains in June, 1881, by G. R. Vasey. 
This is more closely related to P. bridgesii than to any of the southwestern 
species, but may be separated by the glabrous instead of glandular inflo- 
rescence and the much dilated corolla tube. Whether the -corollas are red 48 
in that species can not be told from the faded dried specimens. 
Scrophularia laevis Wooton & Standley, sp. nov. 
Tall perennial, 1 meter high or more; stems slender, bright green, glabrous, 
erect, simple or with a few weak, spreading branches; petioles long, slender, 
usually half as long as the blades, these ovate or broadly lanceolate, 4 to 7 cm. 
long, acute, neither attenuate nor acuminate, bright green, thin, glabrous, 
scarcely if at all paler beneath, few, truncate or rounded and usually somewhat 
decurrent at the base, coarsely laciniate-dentate, the teeth triangular, acute or 
attenuate; inflorescence rather sparse and short, consisting of 5 or fewer pairs 
of few-flowered corymbs on spreading penduncles; pedicels stout, ascending, 
1 to 2 em. long, glabrous or nearly so; flowers not seen; calyx lobes triangular- 
lanceolate, very acute, 3 to 4 mm. high; capsules narrowly ovoid, attenuate, 
about 8 mm. high, terminated by the persistent filiform style 4 mm. long. 
Type in the U. 8. National Herbarium, no. 561409, collected on a moist, shaded 
slope high up on Organ Peak above Filmore Canyon, altitude about 2,400 meters, 
September 23, 1906, by E. O. Wooton and Paul C. Standley. 
ADDITIONAL SPECIMENS EXAMINED: Old Tiptop, Organ Mountains, October 18, 
1903, Metcalfe. 
On account of its slender habit, green stems, and pale leaves, and of its long 
petioles, this plant appears very different from the other western species. It 
is also distinguished from our others by its broad, short leaves and very acute 
calyx lobes, as well as by its almost complete lack of indument. 
Scrophularia parviflora Wooton & Standley, sp. nov. 
Perennial, about a meter high; stems rather slender, dull green or purplish, 
finely and densely puberulent throughout, simple or sparingly branched ; petioles 
short, less than one-third as long as the blades, these mostly triangular-lance
