Neomammillaria trichacantha (Schumann). Maminillaria trichacantha Schumann, Gesamtb. Kakteen Nachtr. 133. 1903. Solitary, globose to short-cylindric, small; tubercles small, clavate, 4 to 5 cm. high, slightly glaucous; radial spines 15 to 18, pubescent, acicular, white, 8 mm. long; central spines 2, brownish, 12 mm. long, one of them hooked; flowers red or yellow, cm. long; inner perianth-segments lanceolate, widely spreading, acuminate; style pale green; stigma-lobes white. Type locality: Not cited. Distribution: Undoubtedly Mexico, but known only from cultivated plants. The relationship of this species is somewhat uncertain. Schumann placed it next to Mammillaria carretii and described the flowers as red, while Ouehl stated that the inner perianth-segments are pale yellow, and this is clearly shown by an unpublished study of Mrs. Giirke, made May 26, 1907, now in our possession. We have received such flowers from Quehl. Quehl refers here Mammillaria hamuligera (sometimes written M. lamuligera) while Bodeker would keep it distinct. We have received flowers
