Only a few of the several hundred specimens of the various varieties of C. Jiutnilis have been cited in this paper for two reasons: (1) most collections are so immature that it is almost im- possible to assign them to a particular variety; (2) in order to conserve space in the paper. Future collections of Cryptantha would be much more adec|uate if fruiting plants rather than flowering specimens were collected, particularly with members of this species.
