Thanks to a loan of Chaptalia specimens from the U.S. Herbarium one Mexican Chaptalia carduacea was found:

Nuevo León: Shaded banks of the Sierra Madre above Monterrey, 2—3000 ft., 2 April 1906,
C. G. Pringle 10169 (US)

A duplicate specimen, C. G. Pringle 10169 (LL), was C. texana, but bear in mind that at that time these two species were both considered to be C. nutans. (And mixed collections from Pringle are not unheard of.)
