Patainban, Michoacan, January 28-31, 1903 (no. 6575), exactly 

 matches Hartweg's no. 171 which is the type of the variety. In study- 

 ing the variety in the light of this more adequate material an impor- 

 tant character is noted in the glabrous or glabrate lower surface of the 

 leaves, those of typical S. lavanduloides being canescent-tomentose 

 beneath. 



Salvia (Angustif oliae) moniliformis, n. sp., caulibus altis minute 

 pilosis ; ramis elongatis valde ascendentibus ; foliis ramorum lanceo- 

 latis utrinque acutis 3-4 cm. longis crenato-serratis supra viridibus tri- 

 gosis subtus pallidis pilosis ; racemis spiciformibus demum 3-4 dm. 

 longis ; verticillis 10-40-floris demum 8-9 cm. distantibus ; bracteis 

 lanceolato-ovatis attenuatis caeruleis albido-pilosis deciduis ; pedicellis 

 1-2 mm. longis ; calyce cylindrico albido-caeruleo piloso costatofructi- 

 fero 8 mm. longo, labiis subaequalibus lanceolato-attenuatis 3 mm. 

 longis ; corolla caerulea circa 8 mm. longa, tubo paulo exserto, galea 

 puberula, labio inferiore multo longiore. — Mexico : open woods on 

 hillside at 2735 meters altitude, Iztaccihuatl, January, 190G, C. A. 

 Purpus, no. 1720 (type, in Gray Herb.). Distributed as S. lavandu- 

 loides HBK., but more nearly related to S. remota Benth., which, how- 

 ever, has much smaller calyces (in maturity 4 mm. long) which are less 

 prominently bilabiate. 



Salvia (Vulgares) lilacina, n. sp., herbacea 1-1.5 m. alta; cauli- 

 bus minute puberulis valde sulcatis purpurascentibus ; foliis ovatis 

 acuminatis basi rotundatis 4-6 cm. longis serratis supra minute stri- 

 gosis venis subtus strigosis, petiolis 5-10 mm. longis ; racemis 

 gracilibus permultis 6.5-12.5 cm. longis; verticillis 10-2O-floris 

 approximatis demum 1 cm. distantibus ; bracteis lanceolato-aristatis 

 1.5 mm. longis caducis ; pedicellis 2-3 mm. longis ; calyce purpurascente 

 tubuloso-campanulato 3-3.5 mm. longo strigoso, labio superiore 

 ovato acuminato 1 mm. longo, labio inferiore cum lobis subaristatis ; 

 corolla lilacina 12 mm. longa pilosa, tubo ventricoso exserto, galea 

 labiam inferiorem subaequante ; stylo piloso. — Michoacan: near 

 Uruapan, October 15, 1904, C. G. Pringle, no. 13,279 (type, in 

 Gray Herb.). Closely related S. Ghiesbreghtii Fernald, which has 

 the midrib of the leaf densely lanate beneath, the puberulence of the 

 branches coarser, and the few racemes more elongate. 



Salvia (Vulgares) uruapana, n. sp., herbacea annua, 7 dm. alta ; 

 caule gracile minute piloso, pilis retrorsis appressis, internodiis 3.5-10 

 cm. longis ; foliis ovatis subcordatis acuminatis 4-5 cm. longis 2.6-3.5 

 cm. latis crenato-serratis supra pallide viridibus minute puberulis vel 

 glabratis subtus cinereis minute pilosis vel glabratis, margine piloso- 

 ciliato ; racemis elongatis, primariis 3 dm. longis ; verticillis 3-10-floris
