                        GEOGRAPHICAL 

                        DISTRIBUTION 



     It is only possible to deal with the forms that occur within the borders 

of   the   United   States�察  �as   even   individual   stations   of   common   Mexican 

forms   are   little   if   at   all   known。These   United   States   forms   represent   a 

northern      extension     of    an   abundant      Mexican       display。The     group 

EUMAMILLARIA�察�containing twelve of the thirty´one forms defined as 

occurring north of the Rio Grande�察�makes the feeblest extension northward�察�



                                              47

                              North American Species of Cactus 



at   no   place   being   found   far   from   the   boundary�察  �and   all   the   twelve   are 

Mexican forms which extend but slightly into the United States。Only five 

of   the   forms    are  found    east  of   the  Pecos�此   �heyderi�察   �the  most    widely 

distributed EUMAMILLARIA�察�extending from the southeastern border of 

Texas westward along the whole Mexican boundary except in California�察�

hemisphaericus�察       �extending    through     southern    Texas    and   southern    New 

Mexico�察�meiacanthus�察  �also   along   the   Mexican   border of Texas   and   New 

Mexico�察�texanus�察�a low ground form of the Rio Grande Valley�察�extending 

from the mouth of the river to El Paso�察�and suggesting a connection with 

the West Indian stellatus�察�and sphaericus�察�another low ground valley form 

of similar range�察�but apparently only extending up the Rio Grande to the 

region of Eagle Pass。 

     The      Pecos      forms      the     eastern     boundary        of    five     other 

EUMAMILLARIA                forms�此    �micromeris�察     �extending      northward       from 

Coahuila   and   Chihuahua�察  �apparently   only   in   the   mountains   between   the 

Pecos   and   El   Paso�察  �wrightii�察 �of   similar   narrow  northward extension�察  �but 

ranging further northward on the high plains of the Upper Pecos in New 

Mexico�察�denudatus�察  �also   with   a   narrow  northward   extension   west   of   the 

Pecos�察    �lasiacanthus�察   �extending     from    Chihuahua      with   a  northern    limit 

between the Pecos and Arizona�察�and grahami�察�a Sonoran type which has 

spread between the Pecos and southeastern California。 

     The ten preceding forms have evidently entered our borders from the 

highlands of Sonora and Chihuahua�察�with the exception of the Rio Grande 

Valley forms�察�texanus and sphaericus。Another species�察�tetrancistrus�察�is also 

a Sonoran type which has reached the eastern slopes of the mountains of 

southeastern California�察�and extended through western Arizona to southern 

Nevada      and   southern    Utah�察  �the   most   extended     northern    range   of  any 

EUMAMILLARIA。The   twelfth   form�察  �goodrichii�察  �is   Lower   Californian�察�

and    extends    into  California    only   in  San    Diego    County。A   summarized 

statement   of the   distribution of our   twelve   EUMAMILLARIA  would   be 

that   two   of   them   have   extended   from   the   low   grounds   of   Coahuila   and 

Chihuahua and spread along the valley of the Rio Grande�察�nine have come 

from   the   high   grounds   of   Chihuahua   and   Sonora�察  �four   of   which   have 

extended eastward to the low levels of southeastern Texas�察�four have kept

to   the   highlands   west   of   the   Pecos�察  �and   one   has   kept   to   the   Colorado 

Valley and its   tributaries�察 �while  one has   a  short northern   extension   from 

Lower California。 

     The nineteen forms of CORYPHANTHA are decidedly more northern 

in their distribution�察�and are our characteristic representatives of the genus 

Cactus。Ten   of   these�察  �however�察  �are   but   northern   extensions   of   Mexican 

forms�察�and six of the ten have simply that tongue´like northern extension 

in the mountains between the Pecos and the Upper Rio Grande ��above。 El 

Paso���察  �viz。�此  �dasyacanthus�察  �tuberculosus�察  �scheerii   ��which   has   also   spread 

somewhat east of   the Pecos���察  �and the three pectinate   and closely  related 

forms radians�察 �echinus�察 �and scolymoides。Of   the   four   remaining   Mexican 

forms�察  �macromeris   is   a   low   ground   Rio   Grande   Valley   form�察  �extending 

from     above    El   Paso   well   towards     the   Lower     Rio   Grande�察    �potsii  just 

crosses the border in the neighborhood of Laredo�察�and radiosus and neo´ 

mexicanus   have   by   far   the   greatest   northern   extension�察  �stretching   from 

Sonora      and    Chihuahua      to   southern     Utah    and   central    Colorado�察    �and 

eastward to the Guadalupe River of Texas。 

     The   nine   remaining   coryphanths   are   distinctly   forms   of   the   United 

States�察�occupying two well´marked regions�察�viz。�此�the northern plains�察�and 

the desert region of western Arizona and adjacent California�察�Nevada�察�and
