Two taxa of Lobelia from north–central Mexico are described as new, both being in sect. Lobelia subsect. Leiospermae E. Wimmer, viz. L. henricksonii (in “grex” Rosulatae E. Wimmer) and L. anatina E. Wimmer var. riskindii (in “grex” Sub–spicatae E. Wimmer). These two taxa are confined to the Mexican state of Coahuila in areally restricted mesic habitats above 1400 m alt.
