San Diego, Sept. 17, 1891 (CO. V. Hartman, no. 738) ; foothills of Sierra

calyx glandular-puberulent, a little hispidulous on the nerves, tubular-

Morales, 1876 (Schaffner, no. 661) ; without locality, alt. 1,850 to 2,460 
m-, 1878 (Parry & Palmer, no. 754) ; in the market of San Luis Potosi, 
1898 (Hdw. Palmer, no. 640). Graham’s no. 1096 without locality 
apparently belongs here, and Bourgeau’s no, 856 from near Guadalupe, 
Mexico, though with larger thinner leaves, may be an extreme form. 
This species, as well as S. microphylla, is sold in the market of San Luis 
Potosi as a Mirto, decoction from them being used to allay fever, head- 
aches, and nervous irritations.
