* In 1864 and 1870 at Hamburgh a separate work appeared as " Vertuch 

 zu einer systematischen Ordnung der Agavece," but the above paper and certain 

 others not seen by us constitute the authority for'his species. 



f These authors are sometimes said to have proposed to alter the name 

 A. americana to " A. Maximiliana," but their actual contention seems to have 

 been that the term Maguey covers several species, one of which they held 

 to be undescribed, and for this they proposed the name A. Maximilianea.
