1. Verbena wrightii A. Gray, Syn. Fl. 2: 337. 1878. 
Type tocaity: ‘Near Frontera, on the borders of Texas, and adjacent New Mexico 
and Chihuahua.”’

Mountains; Socorro; Black Range; Burro Mountains; Organ Mountains; White Moun-

The plants here listed are the common erect plant of the region from which 
V. wrightii was described, but they do not agree with Doctor Gray’s original descrip- 
tion in the characters ‘“‘stems simple below” and ‘‘from an annual root.” We know 
of no single-stemmed Verbena from the region, and V. wrightti is probably a shoit- 
lived perennial, flowering the first year. Its erect habit and rose purple flowers 
are very distinctive.
