lets short and very leafy ; leaves a half inch long, obovate-lanceolate, 

 entire, ending with an abrupt sharp point, veinless, coriaceous, very 

 punctate on both sides with ratlier coarse, dark, resinous dots; bark of 

 the green, leafy branclilets minutely warty, and the branches of the 

 dense corymb clothed with small, triangular scales ; heads a half inch 

 long, about 12 flowered; the innermost scales of the turbinate involucre 

 linear lanceolate, the outer gradually shorter, all rather acute, with 

 minutely barbellate, scarious margins; style appendages subulate about 

 equaling the stigmntic portion; the short, subturbinate akenes silky 

 villous. 



Growing in dense hemispherical tufts fr-m crevices of perpendic- 

 ular cliffs which crown the highest San Francisco Mountains in Arizo- 

 na. In flower Nov. i, 1880. 



From the description of Bigelovia spathulata of Lower Calif rnia 

 this new shrub of Arizona must be its nearest ally. 



BiGFXoviA (Chrysothamnis) JUNCEA. — Shrubby, much branch- 

 ed, cinereous; branches closely fastigiate, very slender and straight, 

 tastigiate-corymbose at summit; leaves very few, linear-filiform, or 

 none; involucres five-flowered; scales very strictly five-ranked, the 

 outermost short ovate, the inner linear lanceolate, all obtuse at apex ; 

 akenes slender, five-angled, minutely but rather densely pubescent; 

 pappus of slender, scabrous, unequal bristles. 



Calcareous bluffs of the Gila River in eastern Arizona very near 

 the New Mexican boundary, in flower Sept. 5, 1880. 



A very compact shrub, at time of flowering wholly leafless and 

 reedy looking. It is very closely allied to B. Bigclovii, Gray, of North- 

 ern New Mexico, but of quite different aspect, with its much more 

 slender, more numerous, and greener branches; while the pubescent 

 akenes mark it as clearly distinct. 



HiERACiUM CARNEUM.-- Stem 2 feet high, simple, leafy uj) to the 

 base of the am])le, loose corymbose panicle, glabrous ; radical leaves 

 from ovate to oblong lanceolate densely clothed with long, coarse, 

 somewhat appressed white hairs, the cauline lanceolate and all except 

 the very lowest, smooth and glaucescent, all sessile; peduncles an inch 

 long, minutely bracteolate ; the scarcely calyculate involucre glab- 

 rous ; achenia columnar, very slightly attenuated at summit ; pappus 

 bright white; flowers deep flesh color. 



South base of the Finos Altos Mountains, New Mexico, in woods 

 of Qucrciis hypolcuca and Q. Emoryi, flowering in October, 1880. A 

 remarkable species of its genus both on account of its flesh-purple 

 flowers, and the strong contrast between the radical and the cauline 

 leaves, the former being white with long wooly hairs, the latter per- 

 fectly smooth and a little glaucous It is perhans most nearly related 

 to H. albiflorum which ranges farther north and west. 



EuPHORiiiA (Anlsophyi.lum) versicolor. — Annual, prostrate, 

 the red stems pubescent with soft, spreading hairs ; leaves less hairy, 

 round ovate to oblong, 3 lines long, rounded above, slightly cuneate 

 at base, on petioles a line or more in length ; stipules none ; involucres 

 'solitary in the axils and at the ends of the branchlets; glands erect, 

 purple, their appendages cuneate-obovate, to nearly quadrangular.
