WOOTON AND STANDLEY—FLORA OF NEW MEXICO. 483 
Thig form seems to us distinct enough to rank as a species. It certainly is much 
more ¢psily recognized than most of the species of the family. We have never seen 
it occurring with the other species nor have we ever seen intergradient forms. 
2. Pseudocymopterus montanus (A. Gray) Coult. & Rose, Rev. Umbell. 74. 1888. 
Thaspium? montanum A. Gray, Mem. Amer. Acad. n. ser. 4: 57. 1849. 
TYPE LOCALITY: Sunny declivities at the foot of mountains, along Santa Fe Creek, 
New Mexico. Type collected by Fendler (no. 276). 
Rance: Wyoming to Arizona and New Mexico. 
New Mexico: Mountains west of Grants Station; Santa Fe and Las Vegas moun- 
tains; Black Range; White Mountains. Meadows and damp woods, chiefly in the 
Transition Zone. 
3. Pseudocymopterus tenuifolius (A. Gray) Rydb. Bull. Torrey Club 33: 147. 
1906. 
Thaspium ? montanum tenuifolium A. Gray, Pl. Wright. 2: 65. 1853. 
Pseudocymopterus montanus tenuifolius Coult. & Rose, Rev. Umbell. 75. 1888. 
Type: LocALity: ‘‘Hillsides of Coppermine Creek, New Mexico.’’ Type collected 
by Wright (no. 1107). 
Rance: New Mexico and Arizona. 
New Mexico: Mogollon Mountains and Black Range to the Organ Mountains and 
southward. Canyons and faces of cliffs, in the Transition Zone. 
Apparently this is a very good species, distinguished from P. montanus by its 
tufted habit, much elongated, very narrow leaf segments, and pale flowers. It is 
found in different situations, too, preferring crevices of cliffs in the deep canyons, 
always growing in shade. 
4. Pseudocymopterus filicinus Woot. & Standl. Contr. U. 8. Nat. Herb. 16: 158. 
1913. 
Type Locauity: Bear Mountain near Silver City, Grant County, New Mexico. 
Type collected by Metcalfe (no. 165). 
RanGeE: Mountains of western New Mexico. 
New Mexico: Bear Mountain; Mangas Springs; Holts Ranch; Pinos Altos. 
A very handsome plant, for the family, its leaves strongly suggesting some of the 
ferns. It is distinguished from our other species by the very numerous leaves of 
peculiar form and by the small umbels which usually but slightly exceed the leaves. 
5. Pseudocymopterus multifidus Rydb. Colo. Agr. Exp. Sta. Bull. 100: 257. 
1906. 
Pseudocymopterus montanus multifidus Rydb. Bull. Torrey Club 31: 574. 1904. 
Type Locauity: Range between Sapello and Pecos rivers, New Mexico. Type 
collected by Cockerell in 1900. 
RanGE: Colorado and New Mexico. 
New Mexico: Tunitcha Mountains; Chama; Jemez Mountains; Santa Fe and 
Las Vegas mountains; Rio Pueblo; Sandia Mountains; White and Sacramento moun- 
tains; Organ Mountains. Meadows in the mountains, Transition to the Arctic- 
Alpine Zone. 
This becomes much larger than is suggested in the original description or in Coulter 
& Nelson’s flora, being often 30 or 40 cm. high. 
18. OXYPOLIS Raf. 
Smooth erect herb 30 to 60 cm. high, from fascicled tubers; leaves simply pinnate, 
with 5 to 9 leaflets; flowers white; involucre and involucels wanting; calyx teeth 
evident; fruit ovoid, scarcely 4 mm. long, with prominent dorsal and intermediate 
and narrower lateral wings; oil tubes solitary in the intervals, 2 to 4 on the commis- 
sural side.
