NEW PLANTS, ETC., 



as different from the plant previously published by Mr. Lambert 

 under the name of Pinus Montezumse. 



It answers very well to the description of Pinus Montezumae 

 by Mr. Lambert, as quoted by Loudon ; but the latter differs in 

 the cones, which are said to be 9 inches long, whereas those re- 

 ceived from Mr. Hartweg are only half that length. But 

 Mr. Lambert's account seems to have been partly drawn up from 

 report, as is evident from his stating in one place that his Pinus 

 Montezumae has cones 9 inches in length, and in another place 

 that they are nearly 6 inches long, that is to say, twice as long 

 as those of Swartz's Pinus occidentalis. I do not therefore 

 attribute importance to this discrepancy. 



Pinus occidentalis, with five very long, rough, slender leaves, 

 must be near P. leiophylla.

 Keceived from Mr. Hartweg, who found it in the cold dis- 

 tricts of the mountain Orizaba, near the village of 

 Chichiquila, attaining a height of 30 feet, at an eleva- 

 tion of 10,000 feet above the sea.
