Capsules ascending, ovoid.


Phenology: Flowering Sep–Feb.

Elevation: 1900–2200 m

Discussion

In the flora Stenorrhynchos michuacanum grows in the Huachuca and Santa Catalina mountains of Arizona and the Chisos and Chinati mountains of Texas. This rather robust species has stems 2–10 mm thick. The flowers are densely hairy externally with many-septate, tapered, tortuous hairs. Recent field work (R. A. Coleman 1996) has shown that the species is more frequent than previously thought.
