Fig. 3. Plant of Echinocereus neo-mexicamis. About one-third natural size. 



Cereus Roemeri Muhlenpf. Allg. Gart. Zeit. 16 : 19. 1848 ( not 

 Engelm.) may be the same plant but no type of it is preserved 

 and the description is not sufficient to identify it, although it 

 seems to point towards this species. 

 Specimens examined : 



New Mexico: Anton Chico on the Pecos, Sept. 27, I* 

 M. Bigcloiv (probably the type") : Fort WifMAte. 1860, E. 1

*Dr. Engelmann never published this combination but it is credited to him in 



the 



work cited.
