GREENMAN—NORTH AMERICAN ВЕМЕСІОХЕЖ 281 
Specimen examined: 
Mexico: State of Jalisco, on bluffs of barranca, near Guadalajara, 
20 May, 1891, С. 6. Pringle, 5160 (Gray Herb., photograph 
and fragments in Mo. Bot. Gard. Herb.), ТҮРЕ. 
The writer has withheld publication of this species for several 
years with the hope that additional material might be secured. 
Mr. Pringle's specimen, from which the above description is 
drawn, is in the Gray Herbarium and consists of a terminal 
portion of a flowering stem and two detached leaves. In stem 
and inflorescence characters it corresponds very well with typical 
specimens of 8. precox DC. except that the terminal portion 
of the stem and branches are covered with a tawny pubescence, 
not glabrous as is usually the case with the DeCandollean spe- 
cies. On account of the similarity of stem and inflorescence 
and because of the detached leaves the plant has been referred 
doubtfully to the peculiarly characteristic and well known S. 
precoz DC. 
The extreme care with which Mr. Pringle prepared his plant 
material and the fact that the leaves on the specimen under 
consideration, although detached from the stem, accord with the 
type of foliage of the section Palmatinervii lead me to believe 
that we have to deal in the present case with an unrecorded 
species related to but distinct from S. precoz DC., and in all 
probability one of limited geographical distribution.
