60. D. corvata, Willd. ex Rem. § Schult. Syst. 5. p. 406? Slender specimens, a 
little pubescent. A few miles east of Santa Fé; August. 
+57. Arenarta (Eremocone) Fenprenrt (sp. nov.): caudice polycephalo; turionibus 
imbricato-polyphyllis ; foliis prelongis erectis setaceis planiusculis margine serrulato-

calycibus glanduloso-pubescentibus ; pedicellis gracilibus ; sepalis ovato-lanceolatis sen- 
sim acuminatis cuspidatis inferne late scariosis medio viridibus trinerviis petala obovata 
subeequantibus ; stylis exsertis. — Prairies, five miles west of Las Vegas; August. — A 
grassy-leaved species, belonging to a group not before known in the New World, and to 
the subdivision Chromolemme of Fenzl. My specimen is-eleven inches high, just in 
flower, but destitute of fruit. The leaves of the sterile radical tufts are 3 to 4 inches 
long; the cauline pairs (3 or 4) successively shorter. Petals white, 4 lines in length. 
58. STELLARIA LANUGINOSA, Torr. §- Gray, Fl. 1. p. 187;—a smoothish variety. 
Foot of high rocks, two miles east of Mora River ; August.

59. Monrinaia umprosa,(Fenzl in Ledeb. Fl. Ross. 1. p. 372,) Rocky places, at 745 «7 “ for: 
the foot of mountains, Santa Fé Creek ; May. — Plant multicipital, with the leaves —— 
approximate, smaller in all its parts than the figure of Ledebour in Icones Pl. Fl. p a WV. ity %

61. Crrastium nutans, Raf.; Torr. & Gray, Fl. 1. p. 189. Santa Fé Creek, in

Santa Fé Creek, in the mountains; May, June. = 
~ 64 S. Antrrruina, Linn. Same habitat as the last. 
+65. S. Drummonnu, var. (S. multicaule, Nutt.! in Torr. & Gray, lc.) A large 
state. With the last. 
. 466. S. Scovureri, Hook. Fl. Bor.-Am. 1. p. 88? var.’ Woodlands, six miles west 
of Las Vegas; August. 
duplo breviorem includente ; seminibus circa 3 asperis. — Cosiquiriachi, in the State of Chihuahua ; fl. in June 
and July. — About 6 inches high, much branched and diffuse ; branches at right angles with the stem. 
Styles of two shapes, short with minute stigmata, and longer than the ovary with 3 distinct recurved stigmata ; 
both forms on the same plant, and both flowers apparently equally fertile.” Engelm. Mss. — From this, 
No. 697 of Coulter’s Mexican collection (specimens of which I have received from Prof. Harvey) scarcely 
differs, except that the plant is less diffuse, the leaves nearly plane, the alar pedicels shorter, and the petals 
smaller, — differences which are likely to arise from station.
