Prodr. xii. 467; Hemsl. Biol. Cent.-Am. Bot. ii. 551. Mexico. State 
of Vera Cruz: Jalapa, Schiede & Deppe ; in moist places near Jalapa, 
altitude 1200 m., 13 April, 1899, C. G. Pringle, no. 7788 (hb. Gr.). 
Var. glandulosa, n. var. Branches and inflorescence pubescent as 
in the species, but with long-stipitate glandular hairs intermixed: lower 
verticillasters sometimes developed into pedunculate racemose-spikes : 
calyx copiously glandular-pubescent. — Mexico. State of Hidalgo: 
barranca below Trinidad, altitude 1675 m., 9 May, 1904, C. G. Pringle, 
no. 8894 (hb. Gr.). 
Stachys Pringlei, n. sp. An herbaceous perennial: stems erect or 
ascending, about 9 em. in length, green or purplish, villous-hirsute : 
leaves petiolate, oblong to oblong-ovate, 2 to 5 em, long, 0.5 to 2.5 em. 
broad, rounded to obtuse at the apex, crenate-dentate, cordate, dark 
green above, paler beneath, hirsute-pubescent on both surfaces ; petioles 
of the lower leaves 3 cm. long, villous-hirsute, gradually diminishing up- 
wardly on the stem: inflorescence elongating in age, becoming 2 dm. or 
more long: verticillasters usually 6-flowered, subtended by lance-oblong 
to linear foliaceous acute bracts longer or shorter than the flowers, the 
lower Vverticillasters 4.5 em. apart: flowers short-pedicellate, in anthesis 
13 to 15 mm. long: calyx campaunulate, short-hirsute, 5 to 6 mm. long ; 
teeth acerose-acuminate, about equalling the tube: corolla conspicuously 
bilabiate, 13 to 15 mm. long, pale purple fading to nearly white ; tube 
about 8 mm. long, bearing a ring of hairs just above the base, pubescent 
in the throat; galea erect, externally pubescent; lower lip spreading, 
about 6 mm. long, maculate, 3-lobed, the median lobe broader than long, 
emarginate: stamens nearly equalling the galea; filaments pubescent; 
anthers deep purple: nutlets black, minutely roughened, about 1.5 mm. in 
diameter. — Mexico. State of Hidalgo: woodlands near Trinidad Iron 
Works, altitude 1735 m., 11 July, 1904, C. G. Pringle, no. 8941 (hb.Gr.). 
This species suggests the little known S. mexicana, Benth., which, how 
ever, is said to be hispid on both surfaces of the leaves and on the calyx, 
characters that do not apply at all to the plant here described. 
Satureia procumbens, n. sp. Stems procumbent or somewhat 
ascending, slender, 1 to 2.5 dm. in length, rooting at the lower nodes, 
closely puberulent: leaves petiolate, ovate or broadly spatulate, including 
the petiole 7 to 22 mm. long, 3 to 12 mm. broad, rounded to subobtuse at 
the apex, crenate to entire, narrowed below to the slender puberulent 
petiole, nearly or quite glabrous on both surfaces, paler and glandular- 
punctate beneath : verticillasters 2—4-flowered ; pedicels 3 to 4 mm. long,
