insertis ad mediam tubi ; antheris exsertis obscure mucronulatis ; fila- 

 mentis glandulosis et pubescentibus ; stylo crasso, apice bifido, stig- 

 matibus peltatis. — Oaxaca: on hills, altitude 1300 m. at Jayacatlan, 

 Lucius C. Smith, July 27, 1895, no. 549 (type, in hb. Gray), also Cui- 

 catlan hills, June 17, 1895, no. 399. 



Seymeria deflexa, n. sp., scabrida et glandulosa; foliis deflexis, 

 majoribus oblongo-ovatis obtuse dentato-laciniatis, segmentis inferiori- 

 bus crenatis apice obtusis, basi decurrentibus ad petiolum ; minoribus 

 oblongis integris basi cuneatis, superiore parte dentatis ; petiolis brevi- 

 bus ; floribus divaricate-paniculatis, pedicellis capillaribus saepe decur- 

 vatis 5 mm. longis ; calycis laciniis tubum campanulatum aequantibus, 

 oblongo-ovatis obtusis recurvatis 2 mm. longis, in fructu patentibus ; 

 corolla campanulata 8 mm. longa, laciniis inaequalibus suborbiculatis 

 ciliatis reflexis basi auriculatis ; filamentis subulatis brevibus crassis 

 pilosis; antheris exsertis flavis nervatis 3 mm. longis 1.3 mm. latis 

 papillosis, apice dehiscentibus ; stylo antheras superante, in fructu 

 declinato apice tenuiter clavato ; ovario punctato-scabrido sub-cydoni- 

 formi. — Nuevo Leon : limestone ledges of the Sierra Madre above 

 Monterey, 19 September, 1907, C. G. Prhigh, no. 10,398 (type, in hb. 

 Gray). This differs from other described species in having deflexed 

 less dissected leaves, and pyramidal paniculate inflorescence. The 

 color of the flowers is not known, but the exserted stamens, as well as 

 the recurved divisions of the calyx and corolla, give the flowers a slight 

 resemblance to some Californian species of Dodecatheon belonging to 

 the D. patula group. The type specimen consists of the upper part 

 of the stem, therefore the lowest leaves are unknown.
