REVIEW OF MAMMILLARIA NAMES IN CURRENT USAGE (PART 16)
by D. R. Hunt
M. glareosa Boed. , Mamm. Verfl. Schlussel 59 (1933).
Neomammillaria dawsonii Houghton in Cact. Succ. Journ. Amer.7:88 (1935)
Mammillaria dawsonii (Houghton) Craig, Mamm. Handbook, 67, fig.48(1945)
Root thick, fleshy. Stem very small, flat-globular; tubercles 4- angled, blunt (with milky sap); axils woolly. Central spine 1, 6mm.
long, brown, subulate; radial spines up to 9 (-10) up to 6mm. long, the 2-3 upper thin, whitish, the lower thicker longer, brown.
Flowers 12mm. long, pale greenish yellow, outer perianth segments with reddishbrown mid-stripe; stigmas 4-5, greenish yellow.
Fruit clavate 15mm. long, very light pink above, whitish below; seeds dull reddish brown).
Lower California: At lat. 28½° on the west coast (Boedeker); S.W. of Punta Prieta, lat. 28° 40' N; long. 114° 12' W, on the ocean front,
10 feet-above sea level; in clay soil in full sun or under bushes, June 1933, E.Y. Dawson (in UC 540368!, holotype of M. dawsonii); Punta
Blanca (Lindsay). Boedeker's description, translated above, has been completed from that of M. dawsonii, which is undoubtedly synonymous.
Recently reintroduced to cultivation by Abbey Gardens, from plants collected by Ed and Betty Gay at Santa Rosalita Bay, South of
Punta Prieta.

No. 11. Mammillaria lewisiana
Original Reference:- Howard Gates, American Cactus and Succulent Journal, Volume 27, page 185, 1955.
Roots: Heavy, tapering with many fibrous branches.
Body: Simple, flattened to globular, 7 cm. high and 11 cm. wide, with sunken apex.
Tubercles arranged in 13 and 21 spirals, also 21 and 34 when old, very numerous, flabby in texture, flattened above and below, 8 - l0 mm. long and 10 - 14 mm. wide at the base, blue-greon, with viscid milky sap.
Axils naked except for a tiny dot of very short white wool. Areoles circular 1 - 2 mm. in diameter, spaced 5 - 10 mm. apart with very short white or slightly tan tomentum.
Spines: Centrals 1 - 3 , lower ones 8 mm. long, acicular straight or flexuous, pointing down, purple black in colour. Upper central to 2 cm. long, curved upwards and inwards, often forming a complete semicircle, purple-black.
Radials 10-13, 6 - 10 mm. long, acicular, light grey with brown tips.
Flowers: Appearing in a circle, 1 - 2 cm. from the apex, numerous, one per areole, 2 cm. long and 1 cm. wide, campanulate. Tube 5 mm. long, naked, yellow tinged green; ovary very short. Outer perianth-segments 11, 4 - 9 mm. long, 2 - 3 mm. wide, greenish yellow with a faint brown midstripe on the outer surface, tip actue and entire. Inner perianth-segments 13, 1 - 5 mm. long, 2 - 3 mm. wide, greenish yellow with a faint brown midstripe on the outer surface, lanceolate, tip acute. Stamens very numerous, attached to upper margin of tube, 5 - 8 mm. long arranged in a circle, included for 5 mm. white in colour. Anthers linear, cream, 1 mm. long. Pistil column 1 cm. long, columnar, pale green. Stigma lobes 6 - 7 , 2 mm. long, linear, radiating, included 4 mm., pale green.
Fruit: Clavate, 10 - 15 mm. long, 5 mm. wide, smooth and naked, white to pink, skin very thin, pulp gelatinous and colourless with perianth persisting.
Seeds: Numerous, distributed throughout the pulp, 0.8 mm. long and 0.4 mm. wide pyriform, light reddish brown, slightly rugose, not dehiscing.
Type Locality: 7 miles north-west of Mesquital Ranch, Northern Vizcaino Desert, Lower California, at 400 - 500 foot in light sedimentary soils in a small range of granite hills. The type specimen is deposited in the Dudley Herbarium, Stamford University, under the number 372447. The species is named in honour of Colonel Berkeley R. Lewis of the U.S. Army.
Notes: This description is a model for its completeness, and other authors would do well to follow it. The number of plants in the typo locality is small and they have not been reported from any other locality. Specimens are difficult to find as tho tops are usually flat, sunken to or below the surface of the soil.
In cultivation they assume a more globular shape. Seedling plants show the flexuous curved spines at an early age; plants barely one inch across will often blossom.
Tho only other Mammillaria with the general characteristics of M. lewisiana known to grow within one hundred miles of the type locility is M. brandeegei and its variety gabbii. This now species differs from M. brandeegei in that its axils are naked except for the tiny tomentose dot instead of being densely woolly in youth. Further, the principal spine is slender flexuous and curved instead of being straight and stiff. The outer perianth segments are entire not ciliate, and the anthers cream not yellow.
It is fairly widely distributed in cultivation, and is a useful addition to any collection.
The Journal of the Mammillaria Society    Volume 1...Number 7...August, 1961.
