3a. Acanthocereus floridanus Small, sp. nov. 
Stems and branches diffusely spreading or reclining, 3 to 10 meters long, stout: joints promi- 
nently 3 to 5-angled, but mostly 3-angled, dark green, often forming impenetrable thickets: areoles 
remote, with mostly 4 to 7 slender or subulate spines, the central one often 1 to 2 cm. long: ovary 
stout-trumpet-shaped, 8 to 10 cm. long, with few large, separated tubercled areoles at the base, 
bearing mostly 3 to 5 diverging spines, those on the upper part usually with one spine each; outer 
perianth-segments deltoid to triangular-lanceolate or lanceolate-subulate and almost linear, the 
longer ones 3.5 to 4 cm. long, acuminate; inner perianth-segments broadly linear, 3.5 to 4.5 cm. 
long, about six times as long as wide, broadly acuminate; filaments adnate more than halfway up 
from the base of the hypanthium; anthers less than 2. 5 mm. long. 
Hammocks, along or near the coast, southern peninsular Florida, adjacent islands, 
and Florida Keys. Type collected by J. K. Small, on Key Largo, December 1917 and 
1918; preserved in the herbarium of the New York Botanical Garden. 
This Florida plant has been referred by us to A. pentagonus, but specimens recently 
collected by Dr. Small, including good flowers, which we had not seen before, indicate it 
to be a distinct species, characterized by its much shorter perianth and more spiny ovary.
