Columbia; rocks near the snow-line, Chevada de Santa Marta, 
gathered by the late Mr. Purdie. 
Caulescent, glabrous. The leaves densely rosulate, oblong, 
slightly spathulate, acute, the largest in a dried specimen two 
inches long by an inch broad. Flowering branch erect, about a 
foot high. Flowers thirty to forty in a dense equilateral raceme, 
the upper ones subsessile, the lower spreading or slightly cer- 
nuous. Calyx-teeth ascending, lanceolate, a quarter of an inch 
long. Corolla red, pentagonal, half an inch long. 
Near C. coccinea, but glabrous, and the flowers slightly stalked. 
31. C. Spruce: (Baker). 
Andes of Ecuador, Spruce, 5463. 
Caulescent, glabrous, densely rosulate. The leaves lanceolate, 
not at all spathulate, narrowed gradually from below the middle 
to an acute point, the largest in a dried specimen half an inch 
long by half as broad.. The flowering branch erect, upwards of a 
foot long. The flowers ten to twelve in a lax equilateral raceme 
about half as long. The patent cernuous pedicels three-eighths 
of an inch long. The calyx a quarter of an inch deep, with linear 
reflexed divisions. ‘The corolla red, half an inch long, decidedly 
pentagonal. 
32. C. susutironra (Baker), —- Echeveria teretifolia, D.C. Prodr. iu. p. 
a0 Le DCs Crass: to 6. 
Mexico. 
Leaves of flowering branch numerous, ascending, quite terete, 
an inch or more long. Flowers in geminate secund spikes three 
to four inches long, of six to eight flowers each. Bracts like the 
leaves, but three to four lines long. Calyx sessile, with thick 
linear unequal divisions, not more than half as long as the red- 
dish yellow pentagonal corolla, which is under half an inch long. 
Apparently a very distinct plant. ‘There is already a Cape
