NEW OR NOTEWORTHY SPECIES. 153 
conspicuously punctate: corymbose cyme dense, the heads 
rather large for the plant, 5 to 7-flowered; involucre nar- 
rowly turbinate, its oblong-linear bracts in about 3 series 
and forming vertical ranks, glabrous, with green-herbaceous 
thick tips and a very narrow thin-scarious or hyaline 
margin: ovaries glabrous. 
Near Chama, New Mexico, 5 Sept., 1899, C. F. Baker. 
Allied to C. Greenei, but with very different leaves and in- 
volucre. 
" Curysopsis BAKERI. Densely tufted stems slender, about 
a foot high, dark-red or purplish, equably though somewhat 
sparsely leafy and the leaves ascending, frequently mono- 
cephalous, otherwise with a few leafy and monocephalous 
branches toward the summit: leaves 1 inch long, cuneately 
oblanceolate, acute, entire, strigulose-pubescent on both 
faces and with minute sessile resinous atoms underneath 
the pubescene: heads broad and short for the genus, sub- 
campanulate; involucral bracts mostly dark-reddish like 
the stem, more villous than the stem, in several series but 
not very regularly imbricated : rays of a deep golden-yellow 
approaching orange: achenes silky; outer pappus obvious, 
whiter than the inner but setaceous rather than paleaceous, 
rather scanty. 
Common, growing in large bunches on ledges and in 
stony dry beds of streams, at about 9,000 feet in the moun- 
tains of southern Colorado toward Pagosa Peak, C. F. Baker, 
23 Aug.,1899. A remarkably slender species for this genus, 
and well marked in characters of involucre, and the more 
than ordinarily deep-colored flowers. 
" CnRYsoPsis HIRSUTISSIMA. Stems only 4 to 8 inches high, 
very erect and densely leafy, from a ligneous and branched 
caudex crowning a strong deep-seated woody root: whole 
plant of a silvery whiteness, the stem clothed with a long 
and rather stiffly hirsute or almost hispid white-hairiness,
