NEW SPECIES FROM MEXICO. 157 
margin slightly but evenly crenate: clusters of only 2—4 
flowers, rather distant: lower lip of calyx bifid, upper entire, 
all the segments aristate-pointed, the whole calyx shorter 
than the throat of the more than a half inch long, broad and 
showy, deep blue-purple corolla.’ 
STACHYS VENULOSA. Stems many, from creeping rootstocks, 
erect and simple, barely a foot high, hispid along the angles 
when young, glabrate in age, internodes an inch or two long : 
leaves ovate-oblong, obtuse at both ends, crenate-toothed, 
glabrous below and nearly so above, thinnish, reticulate- 
venulose, an inch long, short-petioled; inflorescence leafy 
and interrupted: calyx with oblique orifice, the subulate 
aristate-pointed teeth more than half as long as the narrow 
tube, not surpassed by the tube of the rather large pale rose- 
purple corolla. 
CEDRONELLA COCCINEA. Glabrous, or the inflorescence very 
minutely and sparingly puberulent: leaves ovate-lanceolate, 
coarsely crenate-toothed, 2 inches long including the 4 inch 
petiole, pale or glaucous beneath : lower flower-clusters 
distant and axillary to broad leaves, uppermost more crowded 
and subtended by narrow bracts : calyx-teeth slender-subulate, 
half as long as the tube: corolla more than an inch long, 
light scarlet or with a tinge of yellow; styles and stamens 
well exserted. 
Not much more of the plant was collected than its inflo- 
rescence. It is allied to C. aurantiaca, but has a very differ- 
ent calyx.

from a small horizontally elongated tuber, 3—2 inches high : 
parts and lower 
petioles of a half inch or more : raceme loose, short-peduncled ; cluster s
