Berberis fremontii Torr. U. 8. & Mex. Bound. Bot. 30. 1859. 
TYPE LOCALITY: On the tributaries of the Rio Virgen, southern Utah. 
RanGE: Colorado and Utah to northern Arizona and New Mexico. 
New Mexico: Las Vegas (B. E£. Fernow). Upper Sonoran Zone. 
Judging from the leaflets alone this specimen belongs here. It is an incomplete 
one and it is impossible to be certain as to its identity. The locality from which it 
comes is within what may be expected to be the range of O. fremontii rather than 
O. haematocarpus. The species should be looked for along the western border of the 
State north of the middle, since it occurs in the mountains of adjacent Arizona. 
5. Odostemon wilcoxii (Kearney) Heller, Muhlenbergia 7: 139. 1912.

Although we have seen no New Mexican specimens of this it is said by Dr. E. A, 
Mearns! to grow in the San Luis Mountains.
