With regard to Seemann’s records, it should be pointed out 
that many of his specimens were labelled and cited by him merely 
as “Sierra Madre.” These have been provisionally included in 
the Sinaloa list, as there was no means of distinguishing those 
collected within the boundaries of Durango and Tepic. Such 
records require confirmation. The town of Agiabampo, visited 
y Palmer in 1890, lies actually within the boundary of Sonora. 
On account, however, of its proximity to Sinaloa, and also in 
view of the fact that the greater part of the Estero de Agiabampo 
lies in Sinaloa, it has seemed desirable to include records from 
this vicinity. 
In order to economize space, the following abbreviations 
have been adopted: CNH., Contrib. U.S., Nat. Herb.; PAA., 
Proc. Am. Acad.; SBH., Seem. Bot. Herald. 
I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to Mr. T. A. Sprague, 
who has continuously placed his knowledge and advice at my 
disposal.
