 the San Pedro River to the mountains east of El Paso. — The specimens mostly 

 belong to the V. brevipes, D C. ; but this is a mere variety of his V. laxa, which

been gathered by Eremont. Much more silvery-canescent 

 specimens occur in Mr. Wrighfs collection of 1851, with ovate and often sub- 

 cordate leaves. They are very young, however : but they not improbably belong to 

 an undescribcd species.
