times pubescent on the dorsal surface: heads much as in the preceding: 
achenes of the disk-flowers pubescent. — Proc. Am. Acad. xxvii. 173 
(1892); F. N. Williams, Bull. Herb. Boiss. ser. 2, ii. 1020, as to 
Pringle’s no. 4099, but not as to no. 4921, nor as to Abasoloa.' — 
1 Mr. F. N. Williams, 1. c. 1019-1021, expresses the opinion that Sabazia 
michoacana, Robinson, represented by Pringle’s nos. 4099 and 4921, is the long
