SOME NEW TEXAS PLANTS. 125 
Damp, sandy woods along the Trinity River, central 
Texas. Early spring. 
The species here proposed is most nearly related to A. 
occidentalis Greene, but is distinguished from that species 
by the exceedingly long-petioled leaves, which are about 
twice the length of those of that species, and much more 
pointed at apex.’ 
Specimens examined: Texas: Dallas County, Bush 
644, May 7, 1900, type; Reverchon 330, April 1, 1900, 
type; March, 1880, type. 
Smtpaium REVERCHONI n. sp. 
Stems apparently tall, very hispid with long white hairs 
which arise from papillae, much branched, the branches 
elongated. Leaves alternate; blades lanceolate to linear- 
lanceolate, 5-10 cm. long, dentate-serrate or the uppermost 
nearly entire, both faces pilose with long white papillate 
hairs like those of the stem; lower leaves long-petioled, 
ovate-lanceolate, acute, sinuate-dentate or entire, with 
dense short pilose hairs which arise from papillae ; petioles 
slender, terete, with long white papillate hairs; heads 
showy, very large; involucres campanulate, 2.5 cm. high; 
bracts lanceolate, acute, ciliate, densely papillose-hispid on 
the back, the outer ones 3 cm. long, the inner shorter, 
obtuse; rays about 20, 3-4 cm. long, hispid on the nerves, 
and ciliate; achenes not seen. 
Dry sandy soil, eastern Texas. Spring. 
Clearly related to 8. Gatesit Mohr, but is abundantly dis- 
tinct in the larger heads, longer papillose-hispid hairs, 
different type of leaves and different root-leaves. 
Specimens examined: Texas: Troupe, Reverchon 3342, 
May 8, 1902, type; Lindale, Reverchon, June 9, 1903.
