Echinocereus peclinatus armatus Schumann, Gesamtb. Kakteen 271. 1898. Echinocereus peclinatus rufispinus Schumann, Gesamtb. Kakteen 272. 1S98. Simple, short-cylindric, often only 4 to 6 cm. high; ribs 13 to 15; areoles closely set, elliptic; radial spines 16 to 20, appressed-pectinate, pale; the central spines wanting or solitary, sometimes elongated and porrect; flowers purplish, 3 to 4 cm. long; inner perianth-segments narrow; ovary and calyx-tube covered with clusters of short brown spines and long wool. Type locality: Cosihuiriachi, Chihauhua. Distribution: Mountains near type locality. Figure 22 is from a photograph of a plant collected by Dr. Rose at the type locality in Fig. 22.—Echinocereus adustus. Fig. 23.—Echinocereus standleyi. 31. Echinocereus standleyi sp. nov. Nearly globular or short-cylindric, 4 to 5 cm. in diameter; ribs 12; areoles elongated, closely set; radial spines about 16, stoutish, whitish but yellow at base; central spine one, similar to but much larger and stouter than the radials, 2 to cm. long, porrect. Collected by Mrs. S. L. Pattison in the Sacramento Mountains, New Mexico, and obtained from her by Mr. Paul C. Standley in 1906. It is a little known species, resembling Echinocereus adustus and E. viridiflorus, but with different spines; neither flower nor fruit has been obtained. Figure 23 is from a photograph of the type specimen, preserved in the U. S. National Herbarium. 32. Echinocereus perbellus sp. nov. Stem either simple or clustered, 5 to 10 cm. high; ribs 15, low and broad; distance between the areoles about equal to the length of the areoles themselves; areoles elongate
