51. Echeveria scopulorum Rose, sp. nov. 



F 



Short-caulescent, glabrous throughout. Stems crowned by rosettes of obovate leaves ; 



leaves 5-8 cm. long, somewhat concave, rounded at apex; flowering stem about 20 cm. 



long, red, not glaucous, few-flowered ; stem-leaves 2 or 3, thickish, short, rather stiff, hardly 



if at all glaucous ; pedicels short and stout ; sepals ovate, spreading, extending only a short 



distance beyond the base of the corolla ; corolla short (10 mm. long) and broad, when in bud 



obtuse, dark-red. 



Collected by B. A. Goldman near Tres Marias, Morelos, Mexico, altitude about 2,700 meters ; 

 flowered in Washington in 1903 and 1904 (Rose no. 653). 



> Somewhat resembling E. obtusifolia^ but stems less glaucous, sepals much shorter and corolla 

 much broader ; it occurs at much higher elevations.

Cotyledon Scheerii Baker, in Saund. Ref . Bot. 1 : sub pi. 62, no. 19. 1869. 



Caulescent, sometimes 6 dm. tall or more, often branching, glabrous and somewhat 

 glaucous. Leaves rosulate, oblong-spatulate, often 2 dm. long, narrowed into distinct peti- 

 oles ; inflorescence a few-branched panicle ; flowers terminal ; sepals distinct or nearly so, 

 spreading almost at right angles to the corolla, linear, acute, very unequal ; buds acute and 

 strongly 5-angled ; petals red or tinged with yellow, thick, erect but spreading at tip, free 

 nearly to base, 15 mm. long ; the stamens opposite the petals attached near the base, the 5 

 alternating ones free ; carpels erect, free, or nearly so, to the base.

 10 cm. long, pale glaucous-green ; inflorescence paniculate, the branches 3-5 dm. long ;

54. Echeveria campanulata Kunze, Delect. Sem. Hort. I^ips. 1842 ; 



Ivinnaea 17: 574. 1843. 



Caulescent, crowned by a rosette of large leaves. Leaves spatulate, tapering at base 

 into a thick petiole, very glaucous, obtuse at apex ; inflorescence a large branching panicle ; 

 corolla strongly 5-angled ; petals thick, reddish without, yellowish within, somewhat spread- 

 ing at tips. Said to be near E. gibbiflora but certainly with very different foliage. 



Type locality : Native of Mexico, but from what part of the country we do not know.

Mr. Hemsley in the Biologia Centrali- American a referred this species to Cotyledon caespitosa, 



but this surely must be wrong.
