broad : corolla near 2 inches long, scarlet ; lips of equal length, narrow, little shorter than 

 the tube, the spreading lower one almost entire. — Ic. v. 33, t. 455 ; Lindl. Bot. Reg. xxvii. 

 t. 14. — Chisos Mountains, W. Texas, on the Mexican border, liavard. (Mex.) 

 S. Lemmoni, Geay. Belongs to the S. fulgens group, near 5. Grahami. A foot or two 

 high from a barely lignescent base, puberulent : stems strict, rather simple, leafy : leaves 

 oblong- or deltoid- ovate, crenulate (about inch long), with either truncate or subcuneate 

 base, rather slender-petioled : bracts small and canescent: calyx narrowly oblong, atom- 

 iferous : corolla an inch long, rose-red ; lower part of the throat moderately gibbous-ven- 

 tricose ; lips only a third the leDgth of the throat and tube : style bearded above. — Proc. 

 Am. Acad. xx. 309. — Huachuca Mountains, S. Arizona, Lemrnon, Pringle. 

 S. albiflora, Mart. & Gal. To the species doubtfully so determined, on p. 370, append : — 

 Var. Pringlei. Canescently puberulent, or lower face of the leaves tomentulose, as in 

 S. polystaehya, but inflorescence lax : corolla glabrous, 4 or 5 lines long, twice the length of 

 the pubcrulent-canescent calyx. — S. Arizona, in the Santa Catalina Mountains, Lemrnon, 

 Pringle, distributed by the latter as 5. pycnostachya (meaning polystaehya), Ort., var. Pringlei. 

 S. spictita, Roem. & Schtjlt. Shrubby, canescent with minute and dense pubescence 

 (which on the leaves may turn reddish or ferruginous), very leafy : leaves small, lanceolate- 

 oblong, obtuse, minutely and closely crenulate, subsessile, upper face soon glabrate and 

 rugose-venulose ; bracts of the short spike ovate, acute, rather shorter than the flowers, de- 

 ciduous : corolla 3 or 4 lines long, nearly twice the length of the lanate-tomentose calyx, 

 blue or purple. — Benth. in DC. Prodr. xii. 315. 5. pulcheUa, HBK. Nov. Gen. & Spec. ii.

S. Hispaxica, L., a spicately and blue-flowered species (Mexican, not Spanish), was col- 

 lected by Havard, " near a garden " in Presidio Co., Texas, on the Mexican border. 



29. AUDIBERTIA, Benth. 



A. incana, Benth., p. 372. At the southern part of its range this species exhibits two 

 remarkable varieties : — 



Var. pilosa, with upper part of stem and whole inflorescence villous-pubescent. — 

 Northern base of San Bernardino Mountains, on the border of the Mohave Desert, Parish. 

 Var. pachystachya. Large, 2 or 3 feet high, minutely puberulent, hardly cine- 

 reous : spiciform thyrsus over an inch in diameter : bracts over half-inch long. — Bear Valley 

 in the San Bernardino Mountains, Parish. Southern border of San Diego Co., Palmer. 



A. Vaseyi, T. C. Porter. In the division with A. Palmeri, the inflorescence and corolla 

 of that species, but the herbage whiter, and only lower leaves rugose-venulose : bracts and 

 calyx-teeth aristate. — Bot. Gazette, vi. 207. — S. California, at Mountain Springs, San 

 Diego Co., G. R. Vasey, 1880. Also San Bernardino Co., W. G. Wright, 1880, a form with 

 bracts and all the calyx-teeth tipped with very slender and even capillary awns. In Vasey's, 

 less attenuate and less prolonged, those of the bracts and upper calyx-tooth more rigid, or 

 as a cusp rather than an awn. Flower (with the exserted stamens) about an inch long. 



30. MONAEDA, L. 



M. pectinata, Nutt., p. 375. No specimen was found in Nuttall's own herbarium, now at 

 the British Museum, and what he gave to herb. Kew under this name is 21. citriodora. 



M. citriodora, Cert, in Lag. ! 1. c. The calyx-teeth are usually spreading from the first. 

 The species is becoming naturalized in Tennessee and eastward. 



33. CEDRONELLA, Mcench. To § 2, p. 377, add : — 



C. pallida, Lindl. Green and nearly glabrous : leaves broadly cordate-ovate or sub- 

 'cordate, mostly obtuse (an inch or so in length), crenate, slender-petioled : inflorescence 

 compact : corolla dull rose-color, half-inch or rather more long, the tube very little exserted 

 from the small calyx. —Bot. Reg. xxxii. t. 29. C. breviflora, var. Ilavardi (flowers half- 

 inch long, smaller than in Lindley's figure, but evidently of same species), and C. breviflora,
