2. Allium plummerae S. Wats., Amer. Acad. Arts and Sci. Proc. 



18: 195. 1883. 



Bonito Creek, White Mountains, Apache County (Goodding 1233), 

 Chiricahua and Huachuca Mountains (Cochise County), Babo- 

 quivari Mountains (Pima County), 4,000 to 8,000 feet, June to 

 August, type from the Huachuca Mountains (Lemmon 2893). South- 

 ern Arizona and northern Alexico. 



This species is still imperfectly known. Although differing from 

 A. cernuum Roth in several important characters, it seems related to 

 that species. The Goodding collection is from far outside the principal 

 range and may not belong to this species.

1879.

 Mountains (Pima County), 5,000 to 8,000 feet, commonly in pine 

 woods, July to August. South Dakota to Washington, New Mexico, 

 and Arizona. 



A.funiculosum A. Nels. is stated by the author of the species to be closely related 

 to A. geyeri, differing in the shape of the bulb. A collection in the Huachuca 

 Mountains (Goodding 2426) is cited.
