218 THE CACTACEAE. 
Rhipsalis schottmuellert Hortus is given by Schelle (Handb. Kakteenk. 227. 1907) as 
a synonym of Hariota salicornioides schottmuellert, an unpublished variety. 
Hariota villigera (Schumann in Martius, Fl. Bras. 47: 265. 1890; Rhipsalis salicorni- 
oides villigera Lofgren, Arch. Jard. Bot. Rio de Janeiro 1: 85. 1915) we know from descrip- 
tion only; it seems to be stouter than salicornioides but may belong here. It was based on 
Sellow’s specimen from Sao Paulo, but its flowers are unknown.
