The last general synopsis of the Hepaticæ was published by Gottsche, Nees and Lindenberg, forty-six years ago (No. 315), and with the single exception of a review of the literature of the decade 1847-58 (No.'297), no general bibliography of any con- siderable period has ever been published. The literature is yearly growing more formidable, and the need of an index is seen in the frequent duplication of names and descriptions. It is desirable, therefore, to take our bearings in order that we know more clearly the nature and extent of our publications. The intended purpose of this index is: (1) To present an author catalogue of the publi- cations relating to this group, supplemented by a topical index for the purpose of more ready reference; (2) An index of all the species described, with a reference of each to the genera recog- nized at the present time; and (3) A classified arrangement of the species to show our present knowledge of their geographic dis- tribution. The first of these we present herewith. That it is entirely complete we cannot reasonably hope, yet we believe it fairly represents the literature bearing on the subject to the close of the year 1892. We shall gladly receive notice of any omission or needed correction. It is hoped that the further parts will not be long delayed. While the greater part of the more important literature is in our own possession, access to several rare papers has been possible only through the kindness of the authorities of the library of Co- lumbia College, the Gray Herbarium, and the Royal Herbarium 2 at Kew. In addition, lists of the published papers of prominent . living contributors to the literature have been sent to the authors themselves, who have kindly corrected the lists of their publica- tions. For the verification of some of the titles I am further in- debted to Prof. A. B. Seymour, of Cambridge, Mass., and Mr. A. W. Evans, of New Haven, Conn. G T LE, INDIANA, 6 Feb. 1893. Bibliography.

GREENCASTLE, INDIANA, 6 February, 1893. ——— MEMOIRS OF THE THE = BOTANICAL EXPLORATIO: OF ade . SOUTHWESTERN VIR During the Season of n MEMOIRS OF THE IORREY BOTANICAL CLUB. Vol. IV. No. 2. Report of the Botanical Exploration of Southwestern Virginia During the Season of 1892, Bv JoHN K. SMALL AND ANNA MURRAY VAIL. The term Southwestern Virginia is a rather vague expression and to the majority of botanists it does not by any means convey its real significance. Occasionally it is met with in botanical text- books or on the labels of some collector who has made a limited excursion into that region. On an ordinary geographical map this tract of country appears quite small, and it is not until one enters it that it is realized how vast and important, as well as in- teresting, the district really is. Early in the spring of 1892 several members of the Torrey Botanical Club planned an extended excursion to the border-land of Southwestern Virginia and North Carolina. Entering the field through the Valley of Virginia, on the sixteenth day of May, they selected Marion, the court house of Smyth County, as a centre from which exploring trips could be made. Marion lies in and near the lower end of the great Valley of Virginia, which forms a more or less natural boundary between the Blue Ridge on the east and the Alleghany Mountains on the West. The territory visited lay close to the North Carolina State line, and the ground that was most thoroughly explored was that within a radius of about twenty miles from Marion, though a number of excursions to more distant localities and points of special Prominence were made at intervals. Marion is situated near the Virginia and North Carolina boundary line, which, besides being Mem, Torr, Bor. Crus, Vol. IV., Part 2, Sig. 1, Nov. 18, 1893. 94 a political limit, has always been made a conventional line between the northern and southern floras of the States east of the Mis- sissippi river, or the temperate region of eastern North America. Although contiguous, the mountains of North Carolina and Virginia are of two very different types, and any one accustomed to collecting in the wilderness of the western portions of the former State is immediately struck with the great topographical differ- ence between the two regions. In the tract of country under consideration the mountain ridges and valleys are usually long, although much varying in length, and run in nearly parallel lines, whereas in North Carolina, in place of the parallel system, there is a mass of short ridges and peaks thrown together in all con- ceivable positions and at every possible angle and relation to one another. As can naturally be inferred, there is considerable dis- similarity in the floras of the two tracts. The conventional line between the two states is by no means absolute, and there is much overlapping and intergrading of their respective floras. This was especially observed, and it furnished many facts con- cerning the geographical distribution of species. The two factors that have exerted the greatest influence in producing such an extensive flora as there exists are the varied character of the contour of the region and the variety of the geological formations of its valleys and its mountain ranges, which latter are the Blue Ridge, the Alleghanies and the Cumber- land Mountains. As to the former, there are all conditions of erosion and varying altitudes ranging from the valleys, some of which are 2,000 feet above the level of the sea, to ridges 5,000 feet and peaks nearly 6,000 feet in height. The latter fac- tor's influence can readily be understood when we consider both the restricted and extensive limestone valleys followed by thick strata of the different sedimentary rocks on thé mountain slopes and ending with the granite or gneiss of the higher peaks, each formation supporting a greater or less number of peculiar species and varieties. In addition to these there are two other factors, the climatic and meteorological conditions as they prevail there. They may not exert as much power in enlarging the flora as in rendering it as luxuriant as it is. The temperature seems to be just about the requisite degree, seldom so hot as to produce exces- B ^ f a » wil A 95 sive transpiration, seldom so cool as to do harm. The rainfall is large, seemingly excessive in some of the mountains, but favor- able to the growth of the majority of plants, while those preferring drier situations are found on the more open and plain-like plateaus or on the southern slopes of many of the mountains. These latter remain peculiarly dry notwithstanding the large rainfall. In consequence of these agents, there exists, especially on the mountains, an extraordinarily prolific growth of plants. Not only are the smaller phanerogams, the ferns, the mosses and the lower cryptogams remarkably well developed, but the mountains and valleys are clothed with magnificent, in some instances almost primeval, forests. Local Geography. Towards the east and southeast, in fact just on the limits of the town of Marion, lie the foot-hills of the Blue Ridge. These consist of a chain of peculiar and striking * knobs" reaching an altitude of about 2,600 feet. Immediately behind them is the first ridge of the range, called Pond Mountain. The highest point at- tained there is 3,400 feet. East of the northern end of Pond Mountain, and more or less connected with it, is Brushy Moun- tain, whose altitude exceeds that of the former ridge by 200 feet. Beyond this the country is more open for a short distance, form- ing thus the Valley of the South Fork of the Holston River.* Rising abruptly from the valley is.the massive ridge of the Iron Mountains, with its many lofty spurs and out-lying peaks, Which ascend as high as 4,900 feet. The culmination of altitude is reached in the next short but stately elevation, for on either end of this ridge are situated two most conspicuous peaks, Mt. Rogers and White Top Mountain, the highest points in Virginia, the former 5,719 feet and the latter only 41 feet lower. After these summits are passed, the country gradually decreases in altitude until the narrow and cañon-like valley of the New River is reached. This stream has cut down its valley until,now it flows in that region at an elevation of about 2,000 feet. Beyond the river still eastward the land again rises rapidly, and an extensive * In this brief description the smaller valleys and ridges are not considered. E 96 mountainous tract separates the New River from the plain on the east. This region when more thoroughly explored in the future will doubtless yield fine results. About four miles northwest of Marion, on the opposite side of the valley of the middle fork of the Holston River, the Alleghanies take their rise. Beyond a more or less interrupted outlying ridge, at some places rising to 3,000 feet, Walker Mountain is situated, its highest altitude being 3,800 feet. Gradually shading out into the irregular talley of the north fork of the Holston, the land rises into more lofty and rugged mountains, prominent among which are the peak-like summits of White Rock, Red Rock, etc. The Alleghanies extend westward for many miles, finally ending with the Powell River valley, whence the most westerly mountain range rises—the Cumberland. This, although much lower than the two eastern ranges, spreads over a large area, and consists of almost innumerable small ridges, which fade out little by little into the plains of Kentucky and the neighboring States. In consequence of such diversified conditions, it is natural that the flora of the whole district is more or less affected and locally distributed. The botany of our excursion is recorded in the fol- lowing annotated list of the plants collected : Clematis Addisonii, Britton. Roanoke, alt. 1,000 ft. The locality discovered in 1890* was again visited and found to have been nearly obliterated by the quarrying down of the hill in the process of building ‘new streets, so that where hundreds of plants were seen before not more than a couple of dozen were noticed.f t Clematis ovata, Pursh. Fl. Am. Sept. ii. 737 (1814). Kate's Mt. Greenbriar Co., W. Va., alt. 3,300 ft. For the first time, as far as is known, this rare Clematis has been collected in flower at the same place where Dr. Britton found it in fruit in 1890, and it proves to be a good species. * Mem, Torr. Club, ii. 28. +In the Gattinger Herbarium of the University of Tennessee, at Knoxville, there is a specimen of this species preserved, collected by Mrs. Bennett, in 1888, in the Cumberland Mountains, Tenn.—N. L. B. tMem. Torr. Club, ii. 28, 97 It grows on a dry, slaty hillside, in low, crowded clumps, often as many as twenty stems growing from a lignous base and matted mass of lignous roots. The stems, leaves and petioles are pubes- cent with weak, matted, silky hairs, becoming more glabrous with age, the peduncle and petioles retaining more pubescence than the remaining portion of the plant; the leaves ovate, sparingly pubescent with few, weak, silvery hairs, becoming glabrous and strongly reticulate with age, sessile or very short petioled, entire or rarely with a few teeth. The flower is 114-214 cm. long, densely tomentose on the exterior, violet purple inside, the ripe plumose tails of the achenes greyish or creamy white. Clematis ovata differs mainly from C. ochroleuca in its smaller more slender habit, nearly glabrous leaves, shorter petioles, smaller flowers and the much lighter color of its fruit, though whether the latter character is a constant one remains to be seen when more material of C. ovata has been collected and studied. Clematis ochroleuca, Ait. Roanoke, alt. 1,000 ft. A particularly vigorous form of this interesting plant. It grew in great profusion on a dry hillside and for a distance of half a mile or more very close to the town, and the locality will doubt- less soon share the fate of that of C. Addisonii. The majority of the many plants noted were remarkable for the lobing of their leaves, which in some cases were 3-5-cleft or parted nearly to the base. The flowers were about 3 cm. long, often with 5—6 sepals, very densely tomentose and cream or yellowish white on the outer surface; the interior of the sepals cream white or streaked with bluish purple, or entirely bluish-pur- ple with a whitish margin. A few plants were slender and less vigorous, with more narrowly ovate leaves and distinctly purple flowers, and in leaf characters approaching C. ovata. Clematis Viorna, L.

The plant here raised to specific rank was first published by Dr. Britton as a variety of Thalictrum dioicum. After a thorough study of it in the field, it has been found to possess excellent specific characters, which are briefly brought out in the following description, the most prominent being italicized: Perennial, root-stock and fibres large, dright yellow ; strictly dicecious, rather strict, glabrous and more or less glaucous. Stem erect, 9-16 dm. tall, branching above into a compound panicle, striate; leaves ternately-decompound, ‘short petioled, the petiole at the base expanded into two large stipular appendages, divisions of the leaflets varying from obovate to reniform-orbicular, almost white beneath, mostly deeply and sharply incised, quite coriaceous, veins prominent on the under surface; staminate flowers white, rather few, anthers linear, subulate-tipped, longer than the filiform filaments; pistillate flowers purple, numerous, ovary shorter than the style; achene oblong-ovoid, rather acute, about the same length as the persistent style, sharply ribbed, generally long-stalked. _ Discovered at two localities in Southwestern Virginia, in the Blue Ridge along Nick’s Creek, alt. 2,400 feet, and in the Alle- ghanies on White Rock Mountain, alt. 4,000 feet.

Its characters are much more pro- nounced in the field than in the herbarium. The leaves are orbicular or ovate, obtuse and lie flat on the ground, are purple beneath or sometimes on both sides, and are seldom over 2 inches br oad; their upper surfaces are usually silve ry-pubescent. The whole plant, as in the related forms, varies from densely hirsute to nearly glabrous, NL B. 106 At all localities where the *fringed polygala" was found, the plants were producing cleistogamous flowers near the roots. These flowers fertilized themselves much more readily than the showy ones at the summit of the stem and produced by far the greater amount of fruit.

Not one of our numerous specimens of the above species can be referred to the typical form, but all of them must be placed under the variety /atifola. The study of the specimens collected leads us to believe that the variety may be more prevalent than it is supposed to be, for this reason ; the best and constant charac- ter of the variety is the erose-denticulate margins of the leaves under a lens, which are easily overlooked, as they are not very conspicuous. The varietal name is a poor guide, and is in fact often misleading. Polygala verticillata, L. Lynchburg, alt. 500 ft. Slopes and sum- mit of the Iron Mts., at Skull Gap, alt. 2,500—3,500 ft.

As the exploration of the northern Alleghanies goes on, the range of this rare and interesting plant is being gradually brought Out. Up to a few years ago it was known only from the sum- mit of Roan Mt., N. C., and vicinity, at elevations of 6,000 feet or more. In 1891 it was found on the southern slopes of Grand- father Mt., N. C., at 4,200 feet, and a short time after this it was also discovered on Blowing Rock Mt, in the same State, at 4,000 feet* Although collected at these new localities, it was still con- * Mem. Torr, Club, iii. 17 and 23. 108 fined to the mountains of Western North Carolina. On the pres- ent expedition special search was made for the plant, and we were rewarded by finding it at the two stations given, thereby bringing it into the range of the Northern flora The Chestnut Creek locality is especially interesting, as it is nearly 4,000 feet lower than the original and ordinary habitat of this mountain plant.

It is with great pleasure that I here associate with these herbs the name of Professor Thomas Conrad Porter, whose important contributions to our knowledge of North American plants have popne over a period of more than fifty years, The other species of the iege Poreres STIPITT A'TT!G bl.

Chatham Hill Gap, Walker Mt., alt. 3,000 ft This interesting plant was first collected by Dr. Asa Gray on Grandfather Mt., North Carolina, growing with S. Careyana, both plants being published under that name in Am. Journ. Sci., xlii. in 1842. Dr. Gray wrote that the difference between the two plants was not detected till they bloomed in Cambridge the following spring, when they displayed characters that remained constant in cultivation. On Walker Mt. .S. Caroliniana was growing in great abund- ance on wet rocks on the north side of the Gap for a space of possibly quarter of a mile along the road. It was 20-40 cm. or more high, the stems glandular pubescent, the leaves all in a rosette at the base, ovate-oblong or round-reniform, 2154-11 cm. or more long, 114-8. cm. wide, crenately dentate with broad, acute, mucronulate or obtuse teeth, glandular pubescent on the margins, acute, cuneate or deltoid at the base, gradually or abruptly con- tracted into a margined petiole, mostly about the length of the blade. Panicle diffuse, with a few very narrow, inconspicuous bracts, the white, two-spotted petals longer than the reflexed sepals. Filaments slender, clavate. Follicles ovate, acute, spreading, when mature probably over 6 mm. long. Engler, in his Monographie der Gattung Saxifraga, p. 137 (1872), accords this species only varietal rank. .S. Careyana is glabrous, with only faintly spotted petals, spreading sepals and filiform filaments. Saxifraga Michauxii, Britton* Summit of White Top Mt, alt. 5,678 ft. White Rock Mt., alt. 4,400 ft.

In the higher altitudes the larger and older trees were very remarkable for the heavy, thick, almost corky bark, splitting into more or less regular, hexagonal sections. Near Marion some specimens were collected that had decidedly lobed leaves. Sambucus Canadensis, L. Cliffs of Farmer Mt. along the New River, alt. 2,200 ft. About Lynchburg, alt. 500 ft. Fall of the Holston River, alt. 2,050 ft. The specimens from the last cited locality are noteworthy on account of pubescence on the under surface of the leaves. A minute and inconspicuous pubescence often occurs in this species, but on the specimens here noted it has developed into conspicuous and rather stiff silky hairs. 18 Sambucus pubens, Michx.

After two years exploration in the mountains of North Carolina and Virginia, it can be safely asserted that there it is the prevailing viburnum and grows with equal vigor on exposed mountain tops and in sheltered valleys. The species reaches greater de- velopment in the Southern Alleghenies than it does in the North.* Viburnum dentatum, L. Along Peak Creek on Peak Mt. alt. 2,200 ft. j The specimens from this locality are a little more pubescent than usual, but are clearly the species to which they have been referred. VIBURNUM FERRUGINEUM (T. & G.) Small. | V. prunifolium, L. var. ferrugineum, T. & G. A small tree twenty feet high. Leaves elliptical-ovate to elliptical-obovate, two to three and one-half inches long, often coriaceous when young, finely and sharply serrate petioled; petiole winged; wings of the petiole above and beneath, ribs and veins beneath and the mid-rib above ferruginous-tomentose; cymes compound, large, Sessile or sometimes peduncled ; rays four, rarely three or five ; flowers large, three to three and one-half lines across; drupe large, five to seven lines long, broadly ovoid, covered with a bloom, seed nearly orbicular. (Plate 78.) Along a stream on the southern cliffs of the Pinnacle near Cumberland Gap, Lee Co., alt. 2,500 ft. We also have specimens from Milledgeville, Georgia (Boykin, No. 2), in oak-wood, near Tallahassee, Florida (Rugel), Alabama (Buckley), Bayou Fasilier, Opelousas, Louisiana (Carpenter, No. 21), and Fredericksburg, Texas (Thurber, No. 83). 2 Mem.

Along White Top Creek, between White Top and the Iron Mts., alt. 2,600 ft. The specimens collected at the last locality are remarkable for the size of the cymes, some of which measured more than eight inches across, and although growing in the damp shade of an original forest where the sun seldom penetrates, the drupes were fully ripe, while the fruit of bushes two thousand feet higher on the mountain side had not yet begun to change color or ripen, notwithstanding that they grew in more open places. This obser- vation serves to show how great an effect altitude has on a plant, even when strong influences are present to counteract it. In the valley the shrub reached a height of 5 m.

It will now have to be extended to. Southwestern Virginia, as it occurs plentifully at the above cited locality. There is, also, a specimen in the Columbia College Her- barium, collected by Short in Kentucky. Symphoricarpos Symphoricarpus (L). MacM. (Symphoricarpos vul- garis, Michx.). Banks of the Holston River at Marion, alt. 2,100 ft. The note on the preceding species applies as well to this one. It is not rare in the mountains of North Carolina.* Lonicera dioica, L. (Lonicera glauca, Hill.) Cliffs northrof Bristol, alt. 1,800 ft. * Mem. Torr, Club, iii, 18, 27.

On limestone ledges of Middle Fork of the Holston River, one mile south of Marion, alt. 2,100 ft. The range of this much neglected species now extends from New York to North Carolina and across the mountains into West Virginia. It has probably escaped from cultivation and become naturalized in many parts of New England and the territory west of the mountains, but at present we have no record as to its oc- currence there. Diervilla Diervilla (L.) MacM. (Diervilla trifida, Mœnch.) Sum- mit of White Rock Mt., alt. 4,400 ft. It may be of interest to note that the only locality at which this species, usually common in the mountains, was observed dur- ing the journey was on the very summit of the white sandstone cliffs that crown the top of the White Rock Mt.

Eupatorium sessilifolium, L. Banks of Middle Fork of the Holston River near Marion, alt. 2,100 ft. Eupatorium album, L. Western slope of the Pinnacle, near Cum- berland Gap, alt. 3,000 ft. It was interesting and noteworthy to find this species of Zu- Patorium, which is almost wholly restricted to the sea coast, growing high up on a dry mountain side. However, this is only one instance of a number of other cases of coast species occurring through the Southern mountains, especially at high altitudes. Prof. Scribner has detected this species in the mountains about White Cliff Springs, in Southeastern Tennessee, which locality is Several hundred miles south of the Cumberland Gap, and the plant doubtless occurs at intermediate stations. Eupatorium perfoliatum, L. Wet places on the island near Marion, alt. 2,100 ft. j 128 Eupatorium purpureum, L. Along Nick's Creek, alt. 2,500 ft. Eupatorium rotundifolium, L., var. pubescens (Muhl.), B. S. P. Western slope of the Pinnacle near Cumberland Gap, alt. 3,000 ft. Quite an extension of the range of this plant to the west, as it has formerly been recorded as growing near the coast. Laciniaria graminifolia (Pursh.) Kuntze. (Liatris graminifolia, Pursh.)

The discovery of these species of Chrysopsis gives us two more additions to the mountain flora. The first species occurs in the western slope of the Blue Ridge and the latter on the western slope of the Cumberland Mountains. C. graminifolia also occurs on the dry eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge in North Carolina. Solidago Boa, Hook. Slopes and summit of the Iron Mts. at Skull Gap, alt. 2,500-3,500 ft.

The discovery of Vaccinium Canadense at this station extends its range a considerable distance southward. Heretofore its south- ern limit was thought to be Northern Pennsylvania. Pulaski County is so near the North Carolina boundary that we suspect this Vaccinium may occur there and will possibly be found in the higher mountains of the northwestern corner of the State. The specimens collected in Virginia are not exactly like the ordinary plant, but are glandular, instead of being simply pubes- cent. Vaccinium erythrocarpon, Michx. Brushy Mt. alt. 3,100 ft.

In Amer. Month. Mag. iv. 193 (1819) Rafinesque suggests the name Xolisma for the Lyonia, Nutt., a homonym of his own Zyonia of 1808, but he neither defines it nor cites species.

It is smaller throughout, the leaves narrower and more acuminate at both ends. The same was found in 1891 on Blowing Rock Mt., North Carolinia, by Small and Heller, at an altitude of 4,200 ft. We have not seen this form in flower. It may be interesting to record that the stumps and roots of Kalmia furnish quite a liveli- hood to the inhabitants of the mountains. They are taken from the soil and shipped in great quantities to the North, where they are made into “genuine Briarwood pipes” for the market.

It seems strange that this conspicuous plant should have been overlooked for so many years and not received any recognition in our text-books. It has been practically unnoticed by botanists since Rugel's collection of 1841.* On specimens of that collec- tion Shuttleworth based his Æomotropa macranthum. This was not Rs but distributed as a manuscript name. When Duchart hed the genus for DeCandolle’s Prod- romus he m up the name ne -prandi iflorum, apparently from a man- uscript name left by Michaux, as he credits the variety to him. However, he has made a mistake in referring to the name as being published by Michaux in his Fl. Bor. Am. i. 279. After meeting with the plant during the last two seasons and studying it in the field, we reach the same conclusion as Shuttle- worth did, that is, that it is not a variety of A. Virginicum, but a good and distinct species. As there is no complete description published, the following is appended. Perennial, stout, arising from a more or less branched rhizome, glabrous ; leaves varying from broadly-ovate-cordate to orbicular- cordate, 5-9 cm. long, 4-8 cm. broad, obtuse or acutish, long- petioled, mottled or simply green, paler beneath; flowers solitary, large, 1.5-4 cm. long, tubular-campanulate, limb not contracted but divided into three large, unequal spreading lobes, which are mottled with violet on the inside; peduncle 2-2.5 cm. long; anthers equally four-ribbed, seed oblique-ovoid, acute, 3.5 mm. long, smooth.

There is a remarkably fine growth of this birch on the damp slopes of White Top. The younger trees all seem to have a silvery-gray bark, which on the older ones turns to the character- istic yellow. At an elevation of about 5,000 ft. on the eastern slope of the mountain a splendid tree was observed and the trunk measured. For the distance of about twelve feet from the ground the trunk is quite cylindrical and unbranched. Three feet from the base it measured twenty-two feet and ten inches in circum- ference.

Lynchburg, along the banks of the James River; alt 500 ft. Peak Creek, on Peak Mt, alt. 2,200 ft. White Rock Mt., alt. 4,400 ft. When first seen these lilies were taken for Z. Grayi, but careful comparison with well authenticated specimens of that latter species prove them to be in all probability L. Canadense. The flower has the shape and appearance of that of Z. Canadense and the dark red color of Z. Grayi. It may possibly be a mountain variety of L. Canadense.* Litium CAROLINIANUM, Michx. Fl. Bor. Am. i. 197. (L. superbum, L., var. Carolinianum, Chapm. Fl. S. States, 484.) The above species has had a curious and complicated history, and until the plant can be studied more thoroughly in the field, especially in the districts south and east of the Southern Alle- ghanies, no attempt will be made to give it at length. However, it may be said here that the later botanists were for some un- accountable reason misled, and either erroneously made the plant a variety of L. superbum or ignored it wholly. It is hardly as closely related to that speciesas L. Canadense is. One reason for its general obscurity may be the very poor descriptions of it that have been published; for example, Dr. Watson's in his Revision of the North American Liliaceæ, “ Low: flowers few (I to 3).” As will be shown elsewhere, the plant is not at all rare in the Southern States, but for the convenience of persons interested in the flora of that district a description is here given, which will also serve to bring out the distinctions between it and related species. Perennial, glabrous and more or less glaucous throughout; stem erect, simple, 3-9 dm. tall, slightly mottled ; leaves oblanceo- late or obovate, 3-11 cm. long, mostly obtuse, sometimes acute, rather fleshy, 3-nerved, entire, often slightly crisped, in whorls of 3to 7 or on small plants alternate and scattered; the one to three, flowers (generally one) nodding, orange-red, the tips of the seg- ments darker, mottled with dark purple; the divisions of the peri- anth lanceolate, strongly recurved in the lower half, more or less straight above, glossy; fruit obovoid, about 3 cm. long. * It id be well to note here that the specimens collected on the Peaks of Otter in 1890 (Mem. Torr. Bot. Club, ii. 50) are this same form of Z. Canadense, and though Z. Gray! is reported from that mountain, we did not find it there. A. M. V. LI 159 Grows plentifully on the dry and open slopes of the Blue Ridge, and collected at the following localities: Iron Mountains from Skull Gap to the source of Dickey Creek, altitude 2,000-3,400 feet. Along Nick's Creek on the slopes of Pine Glade Mountain, altitude 2,500 feet. Slopes of White Top Mountain, altitude 2,700-5,000 feet. One of the characters which, however, can only be noticed in the field, is its delightful odor which often leads one to detect it before one's attention is attracted by its brilliant colors.

The Southern fir had not as yet been col- lected north of the southern boundary of Virginia. To find the species within limits of the Northern States was one of our objects. After failing to secure it on any of the higher moun- tains explored, Mt. Rogers, the highest peak in Virginia, was resorted to. It was found to grow extensively on the upper parts of the mountain, extending from an elevation of about 5,000 feet to the summit, 5,719 feet above the level of the sea. The growth was very fine and many large trees were observed. The mountain being wooded to the top, the soil and rocks are the damp most of the time, and the forest is less exposed to violent storms and winds than the more open peaks of North Carolina Tsuga Canadensis (L.)

Sullivant, in the Icones Muscorum, p. 163, says of the vein: ** Costa tenui supra medium abrupte desinente."

It seems to me that the species is distinct from Hypnum re- curvans and well-named, maintaining a different habit, less glossy in general aspect, more loosely branched and leaves less uncinate, with a short pedicel, only 1 cm., while in Hypnum recurvans it is usually 2 cm. I have been favored with a portion of the type from Sullivant's Herbarium by Dr. Watson. In comparison, I find that the cilia, however, are developed on James' own specimens and are single, but with a divisional line as if two were united. Sullivant figured it without cilia and the Manual says * cilia none or rudimentary." Hypnum | cylindricarpum, CM. McGrady's Creek, alt. 3,000 ft. On old log in fine fruit.

Plants forming bright glossy green patches; stems not matted nor tomentose, prostrate at base, 2-4 cm. long, innovations ascending, leaves intricate, flattened in one place, occasionally rooting at apex, 3-5mm. long, ovate-lanceolate, veinless, entire, bordered by a row of slightly larger, clearer cells, apex acute, areolation regularly rhomboidal, basal cells not enlarged, base contracted. Monce- cious, autoicous, the antheridia few in small leafy buds near the base of the pedicel. Perichætial bracts few, smaller than the leaves, more acuminate; pedicel stout, red brown, 8-12 mm. long, twisted and curved ; capsule pendent, not con- tracted below the mouth when dry, 1-5 mm. long, lid 75 mm. conic, calyptra not seen. Peristome double, teeth trabe culate. Along Nick’s Creek, at foot of Pine Glade Mt. In dark, damp spring ravine, on perpendicular face of wet rock, alt. 2,600 ft. Only two capsules found with old fruit and one operculum entangled among the leaves. Differs from P#rigo- phyllum lucens, Brid. in the acute leaves with longer narrower cells, capsules shorter and broader, not contracted below the mouth when dry, lid not rostrate, blunt. This species has been confounded with the above and was distributed by Sul- livant in his Musci Alleghanienses as 58 Hookeria lucens, and by Sull. & Lesq. Musci Bor. Am. Ed. II. 401 as Heokeria acutifolia, also recently as Péerigophyllum lucens by Dr. Barnes, collected by Prof. Underwood at Tallulah Falls, Ga. It has also been collected in Doe River Gorge, Tenn., by me 1885, and in Ohio and North Carolina by Sullivant and Lesquereux, Bolander’s Californian specimens and those with blunt leaves from Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Vancouver, are all Pterigo- Phyllum lucens. We have seen no specimens of the lattter from any locality east of the Rocky Mountains. (Plate 80.) Neckera pennata (L.) Hedw. Eastern slope of White Top Mt., alt. 4,800 ft., on Picea.

Dickey Creek, alt. 2,500 ft. On trees. Lejeunea (Harpa-Lejeunea) ovata Tayl. Dioicous, pale green, loosely czespitose; stems prostrate, with few radicles, irregu- larly branched; leaves contiguous or somewhat imbricatad, obliquely spreading, convex and often reflexed at apex, ovate, mostly acute, entire, the antical margin arching over the stem but not beyond it; leaf-cells hexagonal, with slight thickenings — at the angles, ocellz 1 to 3, near the base of the leaf, elliptical ; lobule ovate, inflated, strongly arched at the keel, the margin curved, mostly involute, 1-toothed at the apex and excurrent into the leaf; underleaves broadly cuneate, emarginate-bilobed with rounded lobes and sinus; female inflorescence terminal, with I or 2 subfloral branches; bracts erect, ovate, obtuse, the lobule plane (?) obtuse in Taylor's herbarium, and I find them to be the same in all particulars except the form of the bracteole ; in Taylor's specimens this is distinctly emarginate at the apex for about 1 its length; while in the Virginian specimens, as stated in the description, the bracteole is rounded or very slightly retuse at the apex. The species may be dis- tinguished from our other Leewzee by its more acute leaves and by the blunt lobes of its underleaves. (Plate 81.) DESCRIPTION OF FIGURES. I.

This delicate little species, which has been kindly identified by Herr Stephani, of Leipzig, marks the first appearance of the sub- genus Harpa-Lejeunea in the United States. Through the kind- ness of Dr. Robinson, I have been enabled to compare these specimens with the type of the species. Radula complanata (L.) Dumort.

Has the habit of Dimerosporium orbiculare, B. & C., but differs in several respects. Other localities may be given: Brushy Mt, Va., Table Rock, N.C., 1891, John K. Small; Dickey Creek, Chas. Scott. The species is named in honor of Miss Helena D. Leeming. I have received from Prof. Farlow sterile specimens of this ` fungus named by Curtis Glenospora melioloides, B. & C. There is no question but that the specimens are of the same fungus; Cooke claims that G. melioloides ‘is a misname for G. Cartisü, B., in which case the fungus was probably thought to be another species and so labelled without further scrutiny. Mr. Massee reports that specimens of A. Leemingie, E. & E., sent to him March 7, 1893, ** Are quite distinct from G. melioloides, B. & C., and G. Curtisii, B.” What the true status of the question is will probably soon come to light. In the meantime we prefer to maintain the specific name quoted above. AR Asterina sp. indet. On petioles of Galax aphylla, Brushy Mt. Belonging to type B. Journal of Mycology 1: 135 (J. B. E.).

On the Collections of Mr. Miguel Bang in Bolivia.—Part Il, By Henry H. Russy. CORRECTIONS, ADDITIONS AND NOTES REFERRING IO FART ES The examination of additional material communicated by Mr. Bang since the publication of the first part, and an opportunity for critical examinations at the Kew Herbarium, have made possible the clearing up of many doubtful points. Several errors have also been detected by the author or by the correspondents cited, and some of the descriptions of new forms are perfected through the receipt of the parts missing when the original descriptions were drawn up. Several numbers of the first thousand inadvertently omitted from Part I. are here inserted. 863. Published as « Berberis Boliviana Lech?" is BERBERIS DIVARICATA sp. n. o o- Sether, the largest nearly 3 cm. long by 1 cm. broad, inequilater- ally oblanceolate, the base cuneate, sessile, the apex cuspidate, thick, minutely revolute, the midrib and 6-8 pairs of principal * Mem.

The same collected by Pearce, at Pelechuco, Peru. 857. Berberis rectinervia Rusby. This now appears to me distinct from Pearce’s La Banca specimen, which has spines 3-parted above the base, the leaves spiny-toothed and with a different venation. 826. Vochysia Bolivana Rusby. Fruit characters, taken from a specimen collected by Pearce at Moro, 4000-5000 feet altitude, and deposited at Kew, are as follows: 24 mm. long by 8-10 mm. broad, oblong, both ends rounded» angled and channelled, rugose and papillose, blackish, on a pe- duncle more than half as long. 683. Published as “Caopia tomentosa (R. and P.) Kuntze, provi- sionally " is CAOPIA CRASSA sp. n. Except upper surface of leaf, entire plant densely ferruginous ; branchlets angular, stout; petioles stout, channelled, 1—1.5 cm. long ; blade 7-15 cm. long, 2.5—5 cm. broad, lanceolate, base round- ed, apex acuminate, thick and rigid, faintly revolute, midrib strong . and prominent below, principal veins 15—18 pairs, reticulate, above smooth and shining, yellowish green when dry; panicles pe- duncled, 5-7 cm. broad, 3-4 cm. long exclusive of peduncles; pedicels very stout, strongly angled, 4-5 mm. long, articulated to branchlets 1.5-2 mm. long, the articulation swollen; sepals oval, obtusish, 8 mm. long, 5 mm. broad, very thick, smooth and shin- ing within; petals about as long, broader, densely pilose-fringed, spotted only above the middle; squamae small, thick and fleshy, triangular-ovate, pilose; ovary broadly ovoid, papillose, the styles, just after the fall of the petals slightly longer than the ovary. . Very near C. Brasiliensis, which has leaves less shining above and oblanceolate sepals. The same as Rusby's 1810; also col- . lected by Pearce at Sandillani. 741. CLUSIA RAMOSA sp. n. Much branched, the branchlets recurved, dark reddish brown; petioles 5-8 mm. long, boat-shaped, the upper partly enfolding the buds; blade of larger leaves 10-15 cm. long, 5-7 cm. broad, the upper rapidly diminishing in size, obovate, the base obtusish, the apex beautifully rounded, very thick, the margin sharply revo- lute, midrib and veins very prominent below, the latter 35—59 205 pairs, anastomosing about I mm. from the margin, glabrous both sides, pale or glaucous above, flavescent beneath i in drying; pedun- cles 1-2 cm. long, panicle proper 3-4 cm. long and broad, rather few-flowered; bracts resembling the upper petioles, but shorter, thinner and lighter colored; flowers sub-sessile, in threes, the mature obovoid-globose buds about 4 mm. in diameter; staminate flowers only seen; anthers distinct, quadrangular in transverse sec- si narrowed downward, the filaments for the most part united nto a conical or Wei mass.

SALVIA BANGII sp. n. Shrubby, much branched, the branches ascending, slightly canescent, sharply 4-angled; leaves on the older parts smaller, rugose and rigid; petioles of the others slender, 5-10 mm. 241 long, the blades 4—6 cm. long, 1-2.5 cm. broad, lanceolate, the base broadest, rounded or sub-truncate to very abruptly cuneate, apex somewhat abrupt, but acutish, from coarsely to finely crenate- serrate, papillose or strigose above, puberulent beneath, green, membranaceous, the veins slender and inconspicuous (except as above stated), the principal 5 or 6 pairs; peduncles solitary, terminal, unbranched, 3-4 cm. long; verticils few and rather dis- tant, about 6-8-flowered; pedicels very short, spreading ` flowering calyx 6-7 mm. long, about half as broad, in fruit slightly enlarged, sharply nerved, the nerves bluish; corolla apparently light blue or whitish, exceeding the calyx by about 1 cm., widely ringent, the lower lip about one-half longer than the upper; my specimens too badly damaged to permit of dissection. Vic. Cochabamba, 1891 (980). Also collected by Bridges. SALVIA RusBvyi Britton, sp. n. Weak and slender, minutely puberulent above, widely branch- ing, the branches brownish; petioles 2-4 cm. long very slender, mostly deflexed, the under side ribbed; blades 8-11 cm. long, 4-6 The type is Rusby's No. 2414, from which this description is en. Yungas, 1890 (422). Differs from the type in its rounded Ovate more acuminate smaller leaves and smaller flowers, but clearly of this species. Salvia sp. ! Vic.

Whether this group of scarlet Sa/vias of the La Paz region, represented also by Mandon's 710, and specimens by Pearce and Bridges, forms a single polymorphous species, or a number of dis- tinct ones, I am notas yet prepared to decide. Under the impres- sion that the former view was correct, Dr. Britton has proposed a name dedicated to Bridges, the first collector. The same view was taken by myself until the moment of preparing these notes for press, but it now appears probable that at least two species are represented. Which of these represents Bridges’ collection I cannot now determine, and the point must go over for further comparison. Perilomia ocymoides H.B.K. Nov. Gen. 2: 328.

Yungas, 1890 (739). | A species obviously allied to the Venezuelan S. /utea Lindl., though the spikes are frequently more than one from each leaf- axil. The fact is Lindley's groups Monostachyae and Poly- stachyae cannot be retained, not being constant, even for the same species. The present plant may be distinguished from A lutea by its narrower sepals and different bracts. STELIS Rusgyı Rolfe n. sp. ds ne Stems 127-3 in. long.

Arachis hypogaea L.* Bv ANNA STOCKTON PETTIT. ( PLATES 83-85.) ' * Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, in the University Faculty of Pure Science, Columbia College. History. The study of this plant was undertaken for the purpose of dis- covering, if possible, some additional facts concerning its habit of ripening fruit under ground. Other species of the Legumi- nosae are known to share this peculiarity with Arachis. Among the best known of these are Vicia amphicarpa and Trifolium sub- terraneum. Vicia amphicarpa bears two kinds of flowers and ac- cordingly two forms of fruit, only one of which is developed under ground. The flower which gives rise to this fruit is formed and always remains underground. The other form of flower and fruit is developed normally, so that in this case the peculiarity of the plant lies as much in its underground flower as in its underground fruit, as the latter seems to be a natural sequence of the former. Trifolium subterraneum bears but one kind of flowers. These are developed in heads. After flowering, the peduncle bearing the head sinks to the ground and, continuing to lengthen, pushes the head under the soil. The seeds will ripen above ground, and, according to Belli, if the heads are prevented from going into the earth, the seeds germinate easily if the integument is broken; otherwise the germination takes place with difficulty. 2'16 Differing essentially from both of these, Arachis hypogaea has but one form of flower which is sessile and remains so. It isa growth from the base of the ovary itself which is prolonged until the ovary is pushed into the ground. This growth is technically known as a gynophore. Ovaries which are hindered by any circumstance from reaching the ground do not produce fruit. Seven species of Arachis are now recognized. These are: À. pusilla, A. prostrata, A. villosa, A. glabrata, A. marginata, A. tuber- osa and Arachis hypogaea, all perennial with the exceptions of A. hypogaea and A. pusilla. Of these species six are found only in Brazil. The remaining one, Arachis hypogaea is cultivated at the present time throughout the warmer regions of the globe. Little is known with certainty concerning the earlier history of Arachis. The fact that all but one of its species are confined to Brazil would seem an indication that it is a native of that country, and in fact De Candolle ascribes its origin to that place. Other authors think it to be a native of Africa, as its importance there as food is so great and its cultivation so general. Still others hold the opinion that it has a Japanese or Chinese origin. Opposing this opinion are the facts that no allusion is made to this plant in the older literature of those countries and that the fruit is not pro- duced there in any great quantities. Sloan, writing in the latter part of the sixteenth century, speaks of it as having been carried to the West Indies from Guinea in slave ships as food for the slaves, and says it was taken to Guinea from Peru. Oviedo, writing in 1547, describes Arachis under the name Mani and states that it is very common in the gardens of the West Indies. From the name Mani is derived the name which the plant now bears in Cuba, Mandubi or Mandobi. Jean de Lery, in 1578, writing a history of travel in Brazil, speaks of Arachis as Manobi. The author of the Noticia do Brasil (1589) speaks of the plant under the name Amandao (large Mandel). Rumph de- scribed the plant, giving it the name Chamaebalanus Japonicus. Parkinson, writing about 1648, described the American Arachis and called it Arachis hypogais Americanus. It is estimated that the yearly production of peanuts in this country is about 4,000,000 bushels and that this constitutes about . one-sixth of the production of the entire world. This amount is con- 277 tributed almost entirely by Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina, Virginia ranking first in its production. Notwithstanding this large amount supplied to our market and the high nutritient value of the seed, the peanut is nowhere used in the United States as an article of food—as it is used in other countries. Some effort has been made, however, to show how valuable it would prove if so utilized. In Germany experiments have been made with refer- ence to adopting it as an article of diet for the army; and it is said to be already in use there as a dietetic treatment for diabetes. The following analysis is taken from statistics furnished by German authorities and will serve to show what valuable proper- erties it posesses as a food constituent: Water,. . 7.85 Fibre, . . 4.29 As. C EAT Pat. . 49.20 Protein, . . 29.47 Nitrogen, 4.67 The oil of this fruit is used as a substitute for olive oil, which it much resembles, and to which it is even sometimes preferred. It is also used as a lubricant and in the manufacturing of toilet soap. Notwithstanding the fact that the fruit of Avachis formed so important an article of commerce and that, on account of its utilitarian value, it was so widely cultivated, it has been correctly described only in comparatively recent times. Piso, writing in 1658, says only of the flower that it is small and yellow, and states that the fruit originates on the root-fibres. The later botanists up to the year 1805 all described the structure of the flower erroneously. The long stem-like calyx was assumed to be a flower stalk even by those botanists who had access to the living plants. In 1805 Poiteau published the first correct descrip- tion of the structure of the flower. Robert Brown afterward con- firmed Poiteau's description in the appendix to Tuckey's Narra- tion of an Expedition to the Zaire,in 1816. Notwithstanding the work of Poiteau, Bentham as late as 1839 writes of Arachis as a plant with dimorphous flowers. Oneform, with calyx and corolla, Which are always sterile, the fertile flowers having * neither calyx, corolla nor stamens, but from between two bracteolae, similar to those which are found at the base of the sterile flowers proceeds a stiff rigid stipe or torus, which is speedily reflexed and elongated, 218 and is terminated by what appears to the naked eye a short point. Examined under a glass this point discloses P its extremity a trun- cated, somewhat concave and dilated stigma.” Hugh M. Neisler, acting upon the supposition that Bentham's E statements were correct, made some observations upon the fructi- fication of Arachis which convinced him that, in his own words, “The flowers of Arachis are all petal-bearing and all fertile.” (Silliman's Am. Journal of Science and Art, 2d series, 19: 1855). Bentham remained unconvinced and published a reply in Hooker's Journal of Botany and Kew Garden Miscellany, 7 1855. It is difficult to understand how Bentham could have per- sisted in his mistake, as he did, in the face of so much evidence. It requires no very expert examination of the plant to be con- vinced that what he mistook for a cleistogamic flower is the naked ovary after the flower parts have fallen away; and that what he describes as the sessile stigma of the barren ovary is the scar left by the deciduous style. As to the affinities of Arachis no satisfactory conclusion is yet attained. Linnaeus placed it next to Cicer; Persoon, nearer An- thyllis; Jussieu, between Ozozis and Anthyllis. De Candolle, classifying it according to the character of its embryo, place it among his Geoffroyae, but at the same time recognizing how little it conforms in other respects to these plants, suggested its forming together with Voandzeia a distinct tribe. Robert Brown says that Arachis and Cercis possess straight embryos in common with the Caesalpinieae and Mimoseae and in which respect they differ from all of the Papilionaceae. Bentham, adhering to his opinion that Arachis possessed dimorphous flowers, points out a resemblance to Stylosanthes, but finds an important difference from the group Hedysareae, of which Stylosanthes is a member, in the unarticulated legume. He finds Arachis not at all similar to Voandzeia. Pend- ing a harmonizing of these conflicting opinions Arachis is usually accepted among the Papilionaceae. General Description of the Plant. Arachis hypogaea is a low annual plant, with one upright flower- less branch surrounded by decumbent spreading branches, upon which the flowers are borne. The stem is cylindrical and smooth, 279 at the base becoming angular and slightly hairy above. The leaves are alternate and pinnate with two pairs of nearly sessile leaflets, the inferior pair of which are nearly elliptical and the superior pair are cuneate and noticeably larger. The leaflets are furnished with pulvini which comprise the entire stalklet ( about I mm. in length) The primary petiole is also furnished with a pulvinus and with two adnate stipules which partly clasp the stem. The straight tap root gives off numerous lateral roots. Nearly all of the roots examined bore quantities of the small tuber-like swellings which are a much discussed characteristic of the roots of the Leguminosae. These occur indifferently on the main and lateral roots. The flowers develop in the axils of the leaves. They are sessile, but with a long calyx, which may easily be mistaken for a peduncle. This calyx varies from 3 to 14 mm. in length, is cylind- rical, two-lipped, hairy and with two bracts at its base. The upper lip is two-toothed. The corolla is papilionaceous and yellow. The stamens are monadelphous and inserted in the calyx. They are ten in number and of two kinds, one with long two-celled anthers dehiscing laterally, and one with nearly spherical one-celled anthers. € ovary is superior, small, conical and one-celled. The style is inserted a little to one side of the apex of the ovary. It is long, cylindrical, exceedingly slender, hairy for a short distance along one side from the stigma, and is terminated by a flat stig- maticsurface. After fertilization the gynophore begins its growth. The flower parts fall off; sometimes the style may be seen as a brown hair-like appendage to the ovary after the flower falls. More frequently it is thrown off with the flower. The ovary becomes tipped with a hardened and brown point. The gynophore curves so that it points towards the earth. The growth of the Synophore continues until the ovary has penetrated the earth for Some distance. The ovary then begins to swell to form the Pod. The part of the gynophore under ground thickens and develops hairs from its epidermal cells which are in every way similar to root hairs. The fruit develops only under ground. It is a one-celled pod bearing from one to three, or according to Kurtz, sometimes as Many as seven seeds. The numberis usually two. The pod is inde- 280 hiscent. The seeds have a purplish brown membrane and no albumen. The embryo is straight. The large, fleshy cotyledons are furnished with pulvini and are exceedingly rich in oil. General Observations on the Plants Studied. The following study was made with plants raised during two successive summers in Englewood, N. J.; Lawrence, L. I., and in Potsdam and Buffalo, N. Y. In New Jersey and on Long Island the plants thrived and produced fruit. The seeds planted in richer soil in northern New York produced healthy looking, well-grown plants with flowers but no fruit developed. The plants grow best in a dry sandy soil, and a warm, at least temperate, climate. Under favorable conditions of weather fruit was obtained from seeds planted in Lawrence within two months. From two to three months is usually required. Plants of a crop raised in Lawrence when pulled up during the early part of October were found to bear a quantity of tubers on their roots. On other plants of the same crop examined in November no tubers were found. In the nyctotropic movement of the leaves, which has already been described by Darwin in his * Power of Movement in Plants," the main petiole sinks downward; the leaflets twist downward and backward so that the lower surfaces of each pair are applied to each other. In this position they form a little packet shutting around the petiole, with the superior pair closed over the inferior and the tips pointing upward. The leaves vary their positions on the stem during the day in such a way as to keep their upper surfaces inclined toward the sun. When a leaf was separated from the stem so that the water supply was cut off while evapora- tion was going on it was discovered that the loss of water made itself apparent first in the upper half of the pulvinus of the leaflets- When cut at night or at four p. m. the movement was quicker, probably because the water in the cells of the upper half of the pulvini had already begun to lessen in quantity. The leaves of some stems cut in the morning slept after about one-half hour; others slept at once. The leaves of stems cut on a hot day slept more quickly than those cut on a cool day; those cut at about four in the afternoon more quickly than those cut in the morning. 281 As the growth of the gynophore is solely for the purpose of pushing the ovary into the soil, its length is determined entirely by the distance of the flower from the ground. The gynophores in the axils of the lower leaves are much shorter than those above, as they reach the ground sooner; for the same reason the gyno- phores on the more d bent branches are shorter than those on the more erect. Gynophores bearing fruit have been seen as short as five millimeters; they vary from that length to fifteen or sixteen centimeters, according to their position on the branch and the posi- tion of the branch in relation to the ground. That the only con- dition regulating the length of the gynophore is the distance of the ovary from the ground, was illustrated by the following fact: One of the plants in a row was entirely removed, together with a portion of the earth about the roots, leaving a hole somewhat more than a foot in depth. A gynophore of a neighboring plant had grown. down to the ground at this place and already attained a maximum length. As the ground around it was taken away, it was found after several days still growing down into the darkness and seeking the soil. The angle which the gynophore forms with the stem is deter- mined by the position of the stem. Accordingly it varies from a right to an acute angle, as the stem runs parallel with the ground or is inclined to an upright position. The hairs are formed as soon as the gynophore reaches the soil, as all of the underground portion is thickened and bears hairs. The growth of the gynophore under ground before the fruit begins to form also varies considerably. In a case where three gynophores developed from one axil, the underground portion of the oldest was 24 mm. long, the next 30 mm. and the next 55 mm. This represents the usual relation. Flowers have been observed on the subterranean portion of the stem. These were perfect and, with the exception of being etiolated, similar in all respects to those above ground. They Without doubt produce fruit, as gynophores were also observed Which had developed entirely under the ground. This fact, to- gether with the one that the parts of the flower fall off almost as Soon as they open, gives evidence that the flower is close fertilized. In the course of its growth the gynophore grows as nearly per- 282 pendicularly as possible, apparently obeying the same law as the main root. When the fruit begins to develop, the growth of the gynophore ceases. The first intimation that the fruit is about to form is a very slight swelling in the lower part of the ovary. As it devel- ops, growth takes place more rapidly on one side than the other, so that the fruit is turned to one side with its length parallel to the surface of the ground. The lower seed, that is the seed next to the base of the ovary, grows to some size before the other be- gins its growth. (There are seldom more than two.) Seeds were also kept germinating in the laboratory in saw- dust during the two years of study. It was observed that after the root had grown about from one to two mm. in length, the epidermis would break in a circular line around its entire circum- ference. This happened invariably. This line marks the limit between the root and hypocotyl, as is shown by the change in the bundles at this point from radial to collateral. As the primary root grows it soon develops rootlets which appear in four regular longitudinal rows at an equal distance from each other. Neither the rootlets nor main root bear root hairs. Their surface is roughened and of a yellowish color, both appearances being due to tissue which scales off, the cast-off tissue being decidedly yellow. The etiolated hypocotyl is thick and fleshy and often much curved in its efforts to extricate the cotyledons from the shell. It frequently narrows down to a thinner portion near the cotyledons which is green. This thickening of the etiolated portion of the hypocotyl is of special interest for the following reason: Experiments have shown that the rule for stems grow- ing in darkness is an abnormal growth in length and generally at the expense of the other two dimensions. In this instance the rule is reversed, and a similar case has been recorded by Kraus where the etiolated portion of the hypocotyl of a plant of Lupinus Termis was more than twice as thick as a normal hypocotyl. The shoot which develops from the plumule becomes the central upright stem of the plant. Anatomy and Development of the Gynophore. Longitudinal sections were made through young flower buds, at a stage before the formation of the egg in the embryo-sac, or at 283 least, before its fertilization. The bud at this stage is almost mi- croscopically small The ovary may be described as sessile, though there are a few layers of cells between its cavity and the . place of insertion of the succeeding organs, the stamens. The basal or lower part of its cavity is nearly rectangular in shape; the ovules are attached to the parietal placenta by short stems. The bundles passing through the base of the ovary, or that part which . may be considered the stem, number from 11 to 13. They ex- tend through to the tip of the ovary, branching more or less in their course. They consist of ducts with closely wound spiral markings, ac- companied by very delicate elongated cells in which individual characteristics cannot be determined. There is also a certain cluster of cells lying near each bundle on the side toward the centre of the organ. They are so near the bundle as to suggest some func- tional relation with it. These cells are large, prismatic in shape and filled with an orange colored substance; they correspond to those occurring frequently in the Leguminosae, which are known as tannin cells. After the egg is formed and fertilized the rudimentary stem begins to elongate and develop into the gynophore. The develop- ment of the young embryo was not studied, but the ovary itself remains nearly in the condition now described until the gyno- phore completes its growth. This may be seen from the fact that it does not increase perceptibly in size, but its extreme tip elongates slightly and is sharpened to an almost hair-like point. While the anatomy of the gynophore corresponds to that of the stem of any herbaceous dicotyledon, its manner of development resembles that of ordinary roots, as there are no lateral appendages and conse- quently no internodes. The cluster of meristematic or dividing cells which give rise to it consists of those lying just below the ovary. For convenience in description we may divide this cluster into three parts: first, those cells which give rise to the central cylinder and which lie immediately below the cavity of the ovary; second, those produc- ing the bundle cylinder, and lastly, those outside both of these, Which form the rind tissue, or the hollow cylinder outside the bundles, 284 The first class consists of several layers numbering from ten to twelve cells in diameter. The first division occurs in the second layer under the cavity, anticlinal walls being formed, but with no great regularity. Soon afterwards the cells lying about ` the circumference of the upper layer begin to divide, forming new walls in such a manner as to change the rectangular shape of the lower portion of the cavity, that is, the angles or corners become filled with cells and the whole cavity assumes the oval form which it has at maturity. From this time on the several layers below the ovary divide rapidly by the formation of anticlinal walls; the cells so derived constitute the pith. It will be understood from the nature of the case that the second part of the meristematic cluster, or that giving rise to the bundle cylinder, consists of the elements of the bundles already present. These bundles form an almost unbroken ring around the cavity of the ovary and have already been described as extend- ing through it to its extreme tip. It is easy to determine what part of the bundles is in a formative or meristematic condition by the immature appearance of the ducts and the extremely thin walls of all the other cells. Owing to the irregularity in the order of division of the cells forming the central cylinder it is not possi- ble to say definitely that the meristem of the bundle coincides in depth with that giving rise to the central cylinder. It is, however, highly probable that such is the case. The third part of the meristematic cluster, or that lying out- side the bundie ring, is so irregular in its division that no definite limits can be fixed. It iseasier to distinguish the new walls here than in the tissues of the bundles. They appear to arise with no order. It can only be said that the cells of the zone lying next the meristem of the central cylinder are capable of growth and division, and that they form new cells rapidly enough to keep pace with the growth within. Anatomy of the Mature Gynophore. Two distinct parts may be recognized in the completed gyno- phore: that above ground with a smooth even surface, and that below, whose surface bears the hairs. The surface of the aerial portion is flecked with numerous lenticels which open length- 285 wise. The epidermal cells of the aerial portion show, on a cross section, a nearly oval lumen with a longer tangential diameter. A long section shows the length of the cells to be about three times their tangential diameter. Allthe walls are slightly thickened. These cells are interrupted by occasional stomata occurring about three to a square millimetre. The rind, or that part of the ground-tissue extending between the epidermal layer and the bundle-cylinder, is about eight cells in depth. These cells are thin walled, of a nearly circular appear- ance, seen in a cross section, and with frequent intercellular spaces. In a long section their length is seen to correspond with the epi- dermal cells. About half way between the epidermis and the bundle-cylinder a row of cells of peculiar character occurs. They appear to have a much longer tangential than radial diameter. But on examining them carefully they are seen to be completely plasmolytic, the radial walls lying in folds, which gives the appearance spoken of above. This row of cells was constant in the sections of the aerial portion of the gynophores examined. This circumstance is extremely puzzling, as no explanation can be offered for the phenomenon of plasmolysis in cells so situated. The bundles are arranged in a circle according to the type of dicotyledonous stems. Through the greater part of the length of the gynophore they are constantly thirteen in number, but at either end, that is near the fruit or near the stem, they vary from this, numbering sometimes more and sometimes fewer. The circle of bundles with the tissue between them may be described as a hol. low cylinder enclosing the pith. The individual bundle is covered toward the periphery by a partial sheath which extends laterally no further than the bast. This sheath is composed of one layer of cells which are smaller than the cells of the parenchyma of the rind and nearly isodiametric, and their anticlinal walls are fre- quently oblique. The outline of the bundle itself, as seen on a cross section, is oval with the smaller part toward the centre. The outer part of the bundle is occupied by a heavy cluster of bast cells, which is convex toward the rind and slightly concave on its inner side. The remaining elements of the phloem were not distinctly made 286 out. The cambium consists of three or four layers of cells in depth, with nothing to distinguish it from cambium of ordinary collateral bundles. The elements of the xylem are arranged according to the normal type. Following these elements radially from the cam- bium, first are found one or two reticulated ducts; after these come from one to several with annular markings; after these and next to the pith are one or two marked spirally. All of these ducts are very small in diameter; no porous ones werefound. The libriform tissue is not well developed, the walls being hardly thicker than those of the surrounding parenchyma. Surrounding the reticulated ducts are small wood-parenchymatic cells. It has already been said that the bundles are collateral and open. This statement requires some modification, as in the older portion of the organ the cambium of the bundles is no longer evident, its place being taken by differentiated phloem elements. There is also an indication of the formation of a cambium ring. Such a ring never really occurs even in the oldest portion of the organ; but the bundles continue to develop both phloem and xylem elements until the ordinary method by which herbaceous stems accommodate themselves to this growth is no longer suffi- cient. This method, namely, the dilatation of the cells lying near the bundles, is beautifully illustrated here by the extreme size of the cells between the bundles. In the early stage of their devel- opment they are no larger than the cells of pith or rind, but as they become older they increase rapidly in both tangential and radial diameter. This process, however, appears insufficient to keep pace with the growing cambium, and they now become meristematic, form- ing new walls which are at first tangential; later, radial walls are formed. In this manner arise clusters or bands of relatively small cells, extending from bundle to bundle. While these small cells appear like the ordinary meristematic tissue of stems whose cam- bium ring is formed after the bundles appear, they do not continue meristematic; at least, in the organs studied there was little evidence that these small cells produced lasting tissue of any kind, and none whatever of the formation of phloem and xylem elements. One or two other variations from the common type of dicotyledonous 281 stems may be mentioned. For example, near the base of the organ, that is, near the point of its attachment to the stem, the cells described as dividing to form the small cells are like those of the pith, as shown by the markings of their walls. They lie also in such a position as to indicate their connection with the pith rather than the rind cells. Owing’ to this, the bands which they form appear to connect the xylem parts of the bundles rather than the cambium layer. At the other extremity, or near the growing region, this is not so evident, though the beginning of the division of these cells was found in a section one centimeter from the fruit. Near the inner extremity of each bundle is a group of See Which have been referred to above as resembling the tannin cells of the family Leguminosae. There are usually several of these in a cluster, so arranged as to form a semicircle in the transverse section, whose concave side is toward the bundle. In the long section they liein continuous rows. They correspond in size and shape to the larger pith cells, and are conspicuous on account of their deep brownish-yellow color. The pith is composed of cells which appear circular in a cross section, and in a long section are seen to be somewhat elongated like the other cells of the ground system. The cells composing the outer edge of the pith are of about the same diameter as those of the rind tissue, but they increase in size as the centre is ap- proached. They are provided with numerous pores on the radial and periclinal walls; these are linear or slit-like, and are ar- ranged with their long diameters running obliquely from right to left. On the anticlinal walls, instead of pores, markings very similar to those of reticulated ducts occur. The anatomy of the subterranean part of the gynophore differs from that above ground in the following respects: (1st) Most of the epidermal cells grow out into long hairs. (2nd) À growth in thickness occurs by a process similar to that of peri- derm formation, by which the diameter of the subterranean part is considerably increased. (3rd) By the absence of plasmolytic cells in the rind described above. Nearly all of the epidermal cells develop long thin-walled one-celled hairs. These average about .8 mm. in length and are 288 from .002 to .02 mm. in the other two dimensions. They are slightly enlarged at the base, roundly obtuse at the end and filled with granular contents. No stomata were discovered in the under- ground portion, but their place was supplied by numerous lenticels. The examination of a number of sections through this under- ground portion showed a row of phellogen cells extending around the stem, interrupted more or less in its regularity by frequent lenticels. Over that part of the surface where no lenticels occur three layers of cells had originated from the phellogen layer. By taking sections through a gynophore which has only begun to develop hairs, it is seen that this phellogen layer is the first layer of cells under the epidermis. The order of its development was not definitely determined, though there were indications that the first division was centrifugal and the two following centripetal. The diameter of the organ was thus increased by several layers of cells, as well as by the outward growth of the numerous lenticels. This latter fact also accounts for the unevenness of the surface of the subterranean portion. The cells derived from the phellogen retained the characteristic form and appearance of periderm. On testing for suberin, however, they were found to be entirely free from it, even in the older portions, when the hairs were beginning to die and separate from the cells below. The cambium of the bundles throughout this portion was gen- erally in an active condition, though it is not possible to state the exact portion of the organ where they lose their meristematic nature and change into phloem elements. Experiments with the Hairs of the Gynophore. Repeated experiments were made with plants bearing young gynophores which had not yet reached the ground when the plants were pulled up. Some were placed in a moist chamber and kept in the light; others were kept in darkness. In every case a narrow zone of hairs appeared in the course of about a week. This zone averaged three millimeters in length; its distance from the tip varied. On gynophores of stems kept in moist chambers in the light it was about eight millimeters; on those rolled in newspaper and kept but slightly moistened the zone of hairs was about one millimeter from the tip. | | : | 289 Schwarz states of his experiment with Pisum sativum that the hairs arising on the roots of plants raised in damp sawdust ap. peared between eight and thirteen millimeters from the tip, while those appearing on a plant of the same kind raised in dry earth, which offered more resistance than the sawdust, appeared from three to four millimeters from the tip. In comparing the growth of gynophore hairs with that of root hairs it must be remembered that the growing point of the gyno- phore corresponding to the punctum vegetationis of the root lies just below the ovary which occupies the extreme tip of this organ. The ovary, however, is almost microscopically small and remains so during the growth of the gynophore. To illustrate the ex- tremely small space occupied by it, the hairs which were not more than one millimeter from the tips of the gynophores as men- tioned above were still below the growing point under the ovary. While this difference in the position of the growing point ex- ists between root and gynophore, the difference which it makes in estimating the relative distances of the hairs from the tips is practically nothing. The resemblance between these hairs and those of roots was further tested by repeated experiments in pulling young gyno- phores carefully from the soil. The minute portions of earth clung to the hairs and refused to be separated from them in the same manner as in the case of root hairs. In several instances these hairs were tested for acids and were found to respond read- ily to the litmus paper test. Still another experiment was made which furnishes strong evi- dence that one function of the gynophore hairs corresponds to the chief function of those of the root. A large, well developed, thriftily growing plant was cut in such a manner as to separate the whole root system from the stems, but the latter were still con- nected with the ground by numerous well grown gynophores. The result was that the plant so treated after two weeks still pre- sented nothing to a superficial inspection to distinguish it from others in its vicinity whose roots were left intact. Closer exami- nation showed that some branches were dead; but the majority were putting out new leaves which appeared quite as strong and healthy as any of those on similar plants in the vicinity which 290 were supported by roots. Unfortunately these experiments were begun late in the season, and the appearance of the frost prevented their continuance. It is hoped that in a future and more. prolonged study of this plant, numerous and varied experiments of this nature will fur- nish additional proof of the conclusion reached above, namely, that the principal function of the gynophore hair is to furnish a supply of food material for the use of the developing fruit. It is hardly necessary to add here that if the secondary function of the root hair is to hold that part of the root on which it grows firmly, and so to facilitate the penetration of its tip into the soil, the same function must also be ascribed to the hairs of the gynophore, as the conditions are the same in both cases. Observations on the Root. On the germination of the first seeds planted for study it was noticed that there was a rupture of the epidermal cells, extending around the circumference of the root at the line where it joined the hypocotyl. The layer of cells so broken curved backward from the place laid bare, showing that it had been subject to a positive tension exerted by the underlying layers, which was strong enough finally to produce the rupture. The portion of the root 50 exposed grew rapidly and turned a slightly yellow. It was thought at first that this peculiar conduct might de due to the ab- normal circumstances under which the seeds germinated, as they were planted in a box of moist sawdust in the laboratory. To test this, seeds were planted under all available differences of condi- tion; some in greenhouses under glass, in sawdust ; others in the same place, but in moist earth. Seeds were planted in the open air in various localities referred to at the beginning of this article, but always with the same result. As soon as the seed began to germinate, the break in the epidermis appeared. A study of the development of the young embryo was then undertaken with the following results: The embryo in the seed was found to have a normally developed primary root. The disposition of its meri- stems corresponds to that ascribed to the roots of the Legumi- nosae. After germination the dermatogen ceases to develop new cells, while the other meristems continue to divide, the outer lay- 291 ers of the periblem tissue taking the place of an epidermis. As growth continues it appears that the outer layers do not keep pace with the inner, and cells of the surface are continually peeling off in rows or single layers many cells in length. À cross section of a young root shows the outer layers of cells separating from the inner tissue and from each other by large in- tercellular spaces, and individual cells may be seen entirely isolated. In this view the peripheral three or four layers of the tissue of the Cortex appear as an irregular zone, several cells deep, composed of cells which resemble the rest of the rind cells in shape, but which are much smaller. e These cells are thin walled like the remaining rind parenchyma, and are distinctly cutinized around their whole circumference. Thin sections as well as masses were placed in concentrated sul- phuric acid. It was found that the walls of an outer portion, composed of these cells described, turned brownish yellow and remained intact, while the rest of the tissues of the parenchyma disappeared in a few hours. This cutinized portion was from two to three cells deep. The walls of the outer cells were entirely cutinized, while those of the cells next below these were cutinized on the side toward the circumference only. The lateral roots show the same peculiar lack of epidermal tissue and, of course, no hairs appear. In other respects their anatomy resembles that of the ordinary dicotyledonous root. As they in- crease in age their outer surface is supplied with a regular peri- derm, and it is only in the early stages of growth that this peculiar habit may be observed. Biological Considerations, As the plant is only found under cultivation, at the present day, it is impossible to estimate in what degree its habits may have been influenced by its artificial surroundings. If, however, the changes induced by cultivation are generally in the direction of the inherent tendencies of the plant, emphasizing rather than changing such tendencies, the fact of cultivation would not enter largely into the question of the biology of Arachis. The question of the course of the downward direction of Srowth of the gynophore has been answered by Charles Darwin, 292 in his work on “The Movements of Plants.” He says that while apheliotropism may act in some slight measure, geotropism is un- questionably the exciting cause of the downward movement. He gives as proof of this the fact that gynophores grew straight down when the light in the greenhouses entered from one side as well as from above. His conclusions were corroborated by the experiments with the gynophore hairs already described, as they served at the same time to exhibit the geotropism of the downward movement. The light came to these plants through one window at the side. When the tips of the gynophores were pointing downward, the position of the stems was so changed as to reverse the direction of the tips, causing them to point directly upward. In a very short time a curve was formed in the growing portion of the gyno- phore, just below the apex, bringing the tip again to its former position, that is pointing directly downward. There were also some slight indications of a tendency of these organs to curve away from the light. Darwin also refers to the means by which the organ is enabled to force its tip into the ground and make its way through it. The sharp, smooth point of the gynophore, he says, would probably enable it to penetrate the ground by mere force of growth, but its action is aided by a circumnutating movement. In evidence of this, he gives the result of a number of observations where circumnutation plainly took place. By the study of its anatomy several other interesting facts have been obtained. First, the arrangement of the vascular tis- sues is such as to point clearly to its adaptation to the movement of the organ. The bundles, as before stated, run singly throughout its whole length. Furthermore, they lie close together and are characterized by heavy bast strands. The bast serves to strengthen the gynophore while pushing its way into the soil; at the same time pliability is given by means of the separate bundles which allow a freedom of motion not possible when there is a continuous ring. Another and much stronger feature is unquestionably that of the hairs which form near the tip of this organ whenever and wherever it reaches the ground and has projected its tip into it fora slight distance. By this means the part of the organ already 293 grown is held firmly, while the growth near the apex forces the tip further and further into the soil. In conclusion, it remains to be considered how much the facts ascertained in this study contribute to the solution of the question undertaken. The fact that so many of the Leguminosae seek the ground in order to develop their fruit and that such different methods are employed in the accomplishment of this result must be re- garded as having some important significance. Tschirsch in an article on the root tubers of the Leguminosae, in the Berichte der Deutschen Bot. Ges. 1887, states that one group of nitrogenous compounds produced by the Leguminosae can be formed only in darkness and suggests this as a reason for the subterranean fruit of so many species of this order. This ex- planation does not answer the question satisfactorily, as Trifolium Subterraneum plainly seeks to place its fruit under ground, and yet may both ripen and germinate it above ground. Beyond this the statement that some nitrates can only be formed in darkness does not meet with the concurrence of all authorities. It has also been suggested that the subterranean development of fruit is to enable it to avoid the danger of being eaten by grazing animals. These are the only reasons which have been offered in explanation of this phenomenon. In reviewing the results obtained in this study, three facts stand prominently forth: namely, the absence of hairs on the root, the presence of hairs on the gynophore which may perform the chief function of root hairs, and lastly, the increased size of the subterranean part of the gynophore caused by a growth simi- lar to that producing periderm. While these facts alone are by no means sufficient to account for the underground development of the fruit they may at least furnish some evidence as to what is accomplished by this process. That the plant is able to take up water from the soil by means of the gynophore hairs was shown in the experiment where the roots were severed from the stem. The most puzzling feature in the anatomy of the gynophore is that of periderm formation in the Portion under ground. In the large number of gynophores ex- amined this was a constant feature of the subterranean portion, 294 and it was never found in the part above, except as it may be considered represented by the lenticels. As the walls of the new cells are never suberized it may be suggested that one possible reason for their formation is to increase the number of cells near the surface, where the water from the soil comes in through the hairs. Their small size, however, seems to refute this idea, and even were it admitted as a reason it would not account for the increase of cells occurring only below ground. Why do they not increase during the entire length of the organ, and thus present a normal condition agreeing with the typ- ical stem? Whatever may be the answer to this question, the in- crease in the number of cells does furnish an additional reservoir of some considerable size for the water flowing in from the hairs. In regard to the roots it is a well-known fact that the few Angiosperms that are known to be without root hairs are either plants which grow from bulbs and, therefore, do not require much nourishment from the soil, or water plants whose epidermis takes the place of root hairs, or epiphytes which also have no use for these organs. Arachis differs from all of these, not only in its need of food from the soil, but in the fact that it lacks both root hairs and a normal epidermal covering on those portions of the root where the hairs should develop. This latter fact points to the possibility that through this it has lost the power to pro- duce hairs, which at one time belonged to its ancestors. If this be true, the purpose of the gynophore cannot be simply to secure more nourishment than can be supplied by the roots, for they have los? the habit of forming hairs, showing that no great demand for food supply has been made upon them. If the plant does not require more nourishment from the soil than might be supplied by root hairs and yet forms such hairs on the gynophore instead of the root, we are forced to the conviction that for some reason it is advantageous to it to take its supply of food from the gynophore rather than the root. What reason can there be but one which has for a motive the welfare of the seed ? It has already been suggested that the plant needs to secure its seeds against the danger of being eaten by grazing animals. If this were in fact the purpose it may be seen how the conditions. discovered facilitate its accomplishment. The fruit is not developed 205 until some time after the gynophore has reached the ground. The entire growth after the flower is formed is very rapid. If the fruit were first formed before a growth which pushed it under ground took place the chances for its safety would be much lessened.. The fleshy cotyledons are both nutritious and pleasant to the taste and the seed is a favorite with many animals. The foliage of the plant is itself rich in nutritient properties and it is known to enrich the soil when used as a fertilizing agent. If this were destroyed before the seeds were formed even after the ovaries were buried in the earth, the fruit could not perfect its growth unless provision were made whereby it could obtain and assimilate nourishment without the assistance of the leaves. Light is not necessary to the formation of proteids, and there is no reason to suppose that they may not be formed in an organ without leaves, if the necessary carbohydrates and nitrates are furnished. The pith and other parenchymatic cells of the gynophore are stored with starch, and nitrates are obtained through the hairs. Therefore it is possible that if a growing seed were suddenly cut off from its normal supply of food by the destruction of the foliage, it would still be able to obtain a sufficient quantity to ripen it from the supplies in the gynophore. - The results so far obtained can only be taken as indications in favor of the second of the two hypotheses before mentioned. It is believed that actual proof, either for or against this hypotheses, may be obtained by a series of physiological experiments. It is the intention of the writer of this paper to undertake such a series of experiments in the immediate future, believing that the results already obtained are such as to warrant the effort to carry the subject to a more satisfactory conclusion.

A revision of the genus Pysalis is without doubt much needed. Any one who has tried, by means of our manuals, to identify the Species growing in any part of the country, has failed more or less completely. Especially is this the case in the South and in the prairie states west of the Mississippi. The reason is not that the descriptions are so badly drawn, but that only about one-half of the actual number of species has, as a rule, been recognized. So, for instance, the State of Missouri has not less than 11 species, and Florida 13, while Gray's Synoptical Flora contains only 5 and 7 which are recorded as growing in those States respectively. And yet that work contains the best treatment of our native species. Even Nebraska was supposed to contain only two species and one variety. In 1891, when determining a collection made in the western part of that State for the United States Department of Agriculture, I came to the conclusion that the State had at least six good species. The plants were also determined afterwards by Mr. J. M. Holzinger. I was, however, satisfied neither with his determination nor with my own, and began from that time to study the genus, whenever I had any opportunity. In 1894 I was called to Washington to prepare for publication the reports of two summers' field work done for the Department of Agriculture, and then had occasion to study the National Herbarium. I found, however, that the arrangement and deter- Mination of the specimens was not satisfactory. I also visited 298 both Columbia College and Harvard University, but the condi- tion at neither place was much better. The trouble seemed to be that too many different forms were put together under the same name. I returned to the University of Nebraska with the deter- mination to try to revise the genus if possible. Through the negotiations of Dr. Chas. E. Bessey I secured the loan of nearly every collection of value in this country, both public and private. I hereby extend my thanks to professors and curators of the following institutions, whose collections I have used: United States Department of Agriculture, Missouri Botanical Garden (including the Engelmann and Bernhardi collections), Co- lumbia College (including the Torrey and Meisner collections), Cornell University, University of Minnesota, University of Tennes- see, University of Indiana, California Academy of Sciences, Phila- delphia Academy of Sciences, Agricultural College of Iowa (in- cluding the Parry and Pammel collections), Agricultural College of Michigan, Oberlin College, Ind., Franklin and Marshall Col- lege, Lancaster, Pa., and the University of Wyoming,* and also to the following persons who kindly loaned me their private col- lections: Prof. E. L. Greene, Dr. J. M. Coulter, Prof. F. D. Kel- sey, Dr. A. W. Chapman, Messrs. J. Donnell Smith, Walter Deane, Cambridge, Mass., B. S. Parish, San Bernardino, Cal., E. L. Suks- dorf, White Salmon, Wash., Rev. A. B. Langlois, St. Martinsville, La; Rev. L. H. Lighthipe, Woodbridge, N. J., and Miss Frances Wilson, Rocky Hill, Ct. Owing to certain rules passed by the Trustees of the Gray Herbarium, I could not secure the loan of the collection of Physalis at Harvard, but Dr. B. L. Robinson kindly sent all type specimens asked for, and last fall I had occasion to spend two days in the Gray Herbarium, when I saw the whole collection. For this privilege, as well as for the use of the botanical library there I am very grateful, as also for the privilege of looking over the herbarium of the College of Phar- macy, New York City. I also wish to extend my thanks to Dr. Chas. E. Bessey and Dr. N. L. Britton for valuable suggestions and help in my work. ; The only collection in this country which I wished to see and * Of course, I also had access to Toc of the University of Nebraska and of the Botanical Survey of the same State 299 have not been able to examine is Elliott's herbarium at Charleston, S.C. It isa pity that this valuable collection should be at a place and in such condition that it is made nearly inaccessible to the botanical world. At the suggestion of Dr. J. M. Coulter, I have extended the original plan by including in the monograph, the related genera Margaranthus, Chamaesaracha ‚and Oryetes. The material used for the study of these genera has been more limited, consisting only of the collections of United States Department of Agriculture, Missouri Botanical Garden, Columbia College, College of Phar- macy, and Prof. E. L. Greene. The revision includes not only the native and introduced species growing in the United States and Canada, but also a few Mexican ones, collected in the northern part of the border States, Lower California, Sonora, Chihuahua and Coahuila. They may at any time be expected to appear within our country. These species are: Margaranthus tenuis, Physalis subulata, P. leptophylla, P. has- fata and P. microphysa. Although most of the herbarium work on Fhysalis and also a part of the bibliographical work was done at the University of Nebraska, the most important part of the latter, the collation of the notes, the final arrangement and the preparation of the manuscript has been done at Columbia College, whose botanical library fur- nishes much better facilities. The whole work on Margaranthus, Chamaesaracha and Oryctes, has also been done at Columbia. To give a list of all the books referred to, would be useless, as most of them are given in the bibliography under each species. The only monographs of real value in existence are those of Nees von Esenbeck, in Linnaea, Vol.VI, 1831; of Dunal, in De Candolle’s Prodromus, Vol. XIII, part 1, 1852 ; and of Asa Gray, in the Pro- ceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Vol. X, 1875, and in his Synoptical Flora, Vol. II, part 1, 1878. All these, however, are defective and incomplete. Many new species and forms have been discovered since the time of their publication, especially in the West and in Florida. More material has accumu- lated, which has made it possible to separate out as good species, forms that were imperfectly known to Dr. Gray, as, for instance, Physalis lancei folia Nees, P. Carpenteri Riddell, P.arenicola Kearney, 300 P. macrophysa Rydberg, P. versicolor Rydberg and P. ciltosa and Chamaesaracha crenata, to be described below. The limitation of the species here recognized, differs also from that of Dr. Gray. If he had treated Physalis as he did Aster, he would have had several more species and would not have united into one such as were rightly kept apart by Dunal. In a genus where the species are as closely related as they are in P/ysalts itis not easy to define the limits, especially as intermediate forms in most cases are found. I must confess that I am far from satis- fied with my own treatment of P. Philadelphica and P. heterophylla. I suspect that each consists of more than one species, but I have been unable to find constant characters that would support a distinction. In preparing a monograph of these genera,* I have naturally to consider the nomenclature of the species. I knew that it was not in the very best condition, but never imagined that it was in such chaos as [ really found it. The following will show the most important cases where changes in the commonly accepted names are necessary. A practically full synonomy will be found under each species, but I feel that something needs to be said in the way of explanation. The changes mentioned are necessary not merely because the author has tried to follow the Rochester and Madison rules. They would have been just as necessary under any accepted rule except one, viz : ** Use whatever name you please." Most of the the errors are wrong identifica- tions of species or misapplication of names. The changes here proposed are not hastily made, as I have compared all the species with the original descriptions and drawings and also with the type specimens when possible. I have had access to all types preserved in American herbaria, except one, viz: that of P. lanceolata Ell.,+ but that name cannot stand as there is an older and accepted 7. lanceolata Michx.{ I have seen the original descriptions of all species and varieties, at least in reprint or in manuscript copies, and also that of nearly every synonym. * The larger part of the following discussion, although under a different title, was read before the Botanical Seminar of the University of Nebraska, May 27, 1895. FEIL Bot, S. C, 8 1: 48 + Michx. Fl. Bor. Am. 1: 149. 1803. 301 In the first edition of Linnaeus’ Species Plantarum, there are nine species of Physalis described, of which six are accredited to America. Of these six two are frutescent and are now referred to the genus Withania. Hence there remain only. four American species which were known to Linnaeus in 1753, viz: P. viscosa, P. angulata, P. pubescens and P. pruinosa. Besides these, P. Alke- kengi has escaped from cultivation in a few places. Physalis Alkekengi* has been well understood from its first pub- lication, and can scarc ly be confounded with any of our native spe- cies. The whitish, more plainly 5-lobed corolla distinguishes it from all of them. ` Physalis viscosa L.t is without any doubt the plant that now appears under that name in our manuals. The name viscosa re- fers to the viscid berry. Unfortunately there are several other Species that have viscid fruit and the choice of name did not hap- pen to be a good one. Thinking the name referred to the viscid pubescence, most of the earlier American authors, as Pursh, Eaton, Darlington, Beck, Torrey and at first also Gray, applied it to another perennial species, Physalis heterophylla Nees,{ P Virginiana Gray $ not Mill| Roth applied it to ?. Pew was and P. viscosa Jacq. is either P. Virginiana Mill. or P. heterophylla Nees. This may partly account for the many synonyms under P. viscosa L. Gmelin called it P. nutans and Walter P. tomentosa,§, which was changed to P. Walteri by Nuttall,** as there were al- ready two species which had been described under this name, viz: P. tomentosa Medicustt and P. tomentosa Thunberg.it The remaining Linnaean species of 1753 are not as well under- Stood. The diagnosis in each case is very vague and incomplete, and agrees as well or as badly with any of our annual species, and diei) can be sure that the name — to the Kae to which *L. Sp. P Pl.

As to P. angulata L.,* there has been some doubt as to whether it is is the same as P. angulata of our manuals or P. obscura Michx.+ Nees von Esenbeckf cited the latter as a synonym of P. angulata and for the plant that now goes under that name, he proposed the name P. ZinkianaS as the only available synonym, P. dubia Link,| was antedated by P. dubia Gmelin. One of the synonyms cited under P. angulata both by Linnaeus and Nees is * Alkekéngi indicum glabrum chenopodiifolio. Dill. Elth. p. 13,4 72, f. 72,” which figure gives a fair representation of the plant now known as P. angulata Linkiana (Nees) Gray.** Furthermore, the leaves of that plant re- semble those of Chenopodium viride, a statement that can scarcely be made with reference to P. obscura Michx. In my opinion P. Linkiana Nees is the true P. angulata. Dunal, in De Candolle's Prodromus,tt corrects Nees, stating that P. obscura Michx. is not a synonym of P. angulata L., but makes a mistake when he refers the former to his own species P. Hirsuta ft that is to P. pubescens L. He retains P. angulata and P. Linkiana as two distinct species, while Gray makes the latter a variety of the former. Hemsley, in Biologia Centrali Americana, regards P. Linkiana as a synonym of P. angulata. Physalis pubescens L.S$ and Physalis pruinosa LI are included in one species by Nees and Gray, although the former recognizes pruinosa as a variety. There are, however, two distinct species in the United States which might claim the name P. pudbescens, one diffuse, with small thin ovate leaves, which are sub-entire at least at the base; the other more or less erect, with large thicker leaves, which are coarsely sinuate-dentate and somewhat resemble those of P. heterophylla Nees, The former I take as P. pubescens L., the st.

The whitish pubescence often found on the latter looks at a distance somewhat like mealiness, which, perhaps made Linnaeus give it the characters “ divaricationibus farinaceo- germinantibus.” It sometimes has yellow anthers, which is given asa character by Linnaeus. The view taken here is practically that held by Nees,* although I think that Z. pruinosa deserves specific rank. Dunal, as far as I can judge, confuses the two, as his description of P, pubescens fits rather that of P. pubescens f. Nees, t which, according to Nees, is the same as P. pruinosa L. Yet he cites under it as a synonym P. pubescens a Nees (P. pubescens L.), He describes a species under the name P. /ursuta,t and as varieties of this he places P. pubescens $. Nees, (P. pruinosa LA and P. Barbadensis Jacq.,§ but his description corresponds with that of P. pubescens a. Nees. It is evident that Dunal has con- fused P. pubescens L. and P. hirsuta Mart. & Gal, | a Mexican spe- cies not found at all within the United States. The characters by which it differs from P. pubescens are given in Walp. Rep. 6: 574, iz., the long setaceously acuminate calyx-lobes. What makes me think still more that P. 4irsuta Dunal is the true P. pubescens L. is that it is the species dispersed throughout the warmer regions of the world, while P pubescens Dunal is, as far as I know, restricted to North America. The locality given by Linnaeus for P. pubescens is “India utraque," and for P. pruinosa, “ America.” Another species found within the United States and often con- fused with the two preceding is one recently collected in Mis- souri, Kansas, etc. It differs in the shorter calyx lobes. Dr. Britton has named it P. minima L, and regards it as introduced. Very likely the identification is right, or rather it is the plant that has been known by this name. At least it is nearly related to it. The description of P. minima L., however, does not fit it at all. The characters given, * Physalis ramosissima pedunculis fruc- tiferis folio longioribus," could only be applied to o one > American is Linnaea, 6 6: : 467-8.

It is impossible that Linnaeus had this rare plant from Lower California, which therefore can not be P. minima. 'The Linnaean species was from India. Both the locality and the characters given above make it impossible that our plant is P. minima, unless a serious error is made in the orig- inal description. Nees suggests that the statement that the pedicels of the fruit- ing calyx are longer than the leaves may be a typographical error, and perhaps meant longer than the petioles of the leaves. In Miller's Dictionary$ 2. minima is thus characterized. But even then our species does not agree with the description, as the pedi- cels are generally much shorter than the petioles. If P. suma of Linnaeus and that of Miller are the same, the name P. minima does not belong to our species, as P. minima of Miller is a smooth plant and generally regarded as the same as Z. Indica Lam.|| The first synonym cited by Linnaeus under P. minima is “Solanum vesicarium indicum minimum Herm. Lugb. 569, pl. 571.” This according to Nees, is also glabrous and is by him included in P Indica. Dunal in DC. Prodr. makes it the type of a new species, P. Hermanni. Probably it is only a form of P. /udica Lam., but is the one that has the right to be called P. minima L., unless the type specimens in the Linnaean herbarium, if there are any, show that this species is something else. Anyhow, our species has no right to the name. From the description of P. parvifora R. Br. in De Candolle's Prodromus,** it seems as if it were that species, but the original description in Robert Brown's Prodromus Novae Hollandiae++ is different, and P. parviflora R. Br. is now generally regarded as a form of P. Indica Lam. P. parviflora Lagascaii is the same as P. minima, not of Linnaeus, but as that pcs has * Cont.

Lagasee R. & S.* for our species, unless it turns out to be a new one. In the appendix to the second edition of Species Plantarum,t Linnaeus describes two more species, viz: P. Pennsylvanica and P. Peruviana, both American. Nothing need be said about the identity of the latter, as it is now well understood. According to Nees there is a specimen of this in the Linnaean herbarium labelled P. pubescens. Perhaps this was the reason why Robert Brown f describes specimens of P. Peruviana under this name. Forms of this wide-spread species have been described under several names, as P. esculenta Willd., P. tomentosa Medic., P. tuberosa Zuccagni. P. latifolia Lam., P. edulis Sims, P. Barbadensis Lam. The name P. Peruviana has also been used erroneously by Roxburgh for P. pubescens and by Wallroth for P. angulata. P. Pennsylvanica has caused much trouble, and the name has been applied to P. Virginiana Mill., P. heterophylla Nees, P. Phila- delphica, P. viscosa, etc. The Linnaean description certainly does not help to identify it. There are only two American species that have the berry as small as the size of a pea, viz: P. microphysa Gray and P. Carpenteri§ The first is a rare plant from Mexico ; both are so different from others that no confusion is possible. In neither are the leaves smooth above and puberulent beneath. There are forms of P. Virginiana Mill,| not Gray, (2. lanceolata Gray ,** not Michx.+}) and P. arenicola Kearney,]t that sometimes have leaves smooth above and slightly hairy beneath, especially on the veins, but both have berries of the size of a garden cherry and the pubescence cannot be called puberulent.

I suppose this is so because Dr. Gray used that name in the fifth edition of his Manual for the complex species which he afterward called P. lanceolata.* From the description one would think that P. Penn- sylvanica were one of the forms there included, rather than a form of P. viscosa. But as such careful workers as Nees and Dunal, and Gray in his later years, classed P. Pennsylvanica among the stellate species, either as a form of P. viscosa or as a species nearly related to it, I shall also leave it there, especially as I have seen at Har- vard University, a tracing of the specimen in the Linnaean her- barium. It resembles a small-leaved form of 7. viscosa and a note in pencil states that the pubescence is-stellate. This does not agree with the Linnaean description which gives it as pruinose. The real nature of the pubescence of 7. viscosa is hard to make out with the naked eye and Linnaeus states somewhere that he could not work with “oculis armatis. This may be the reason why he called the pubescence pruinose instead of stellate. In the eighth edition of Miller's Gardeners' Dictionary, 1768, 'there are several species named and described. Except those mentioned above, I do not know that there are any of interest to us, except P. Virginiana.t Most authors regard it as synonymous with P. lanceolata Michx.,+ others as the same as P. Pennsylvanica L., probably because both have been misunderstood and confused. Dr. Gray adopted the name P. Virginiana for the common broad- leaved, viscid perennial, which should be known as P. heterophylla Nees.$ He gives the reason for so doing in the Synoptical Floral| where we read: * This early name of Miller, taken up for the present species in Proc. Am. Acad., Le, must from the size of the flower belong to it, or to a broad-leaved and hairy form of P. /an- ceolata. Miller's remark that the root does not creep in the ground is most applicable to the latter; but the color, as well as the size of the corolla and the ‘ pale yellow ' fruit, also the diffuse growth, best accord with this common species." From this it may be: seen that Dr. Gray was not certain that he applied men name * Proc. Am. Acad. 10: 67. 1874. —— + Mill. Gard, Dict. Ed. 8, no. 4. 1768. 1 Michx. Fl. Bor.

Had he referred it to a broad-leaved and hairy form of P. lanceolata Michx., as he understood the same, he would have done the right thing. But evidently Dr. Gray had never seen this form exactly like the figure in Miller's Illustra- tions, plate 206. f. r. As far as I can remember, there are no specimens of it in the Gray Herbarium. I have had for study all the important collections of Physalis in the United States. In all, it is represented by specimens from only a dozen localities and all collected since 1886. It is, therefore, easy to find an excuse for Dr. Gray's erroneous application of the name P. Virginiana. All forms of P. Virginiana Miller or P. lanceolata Gray* have a thick more or less fleshy and erect caudex, while P. heterophylla Nees (P. Virginiana Gray) generally has a slender creeping rootstock. As far as the size and color of the corolla is concerned there is no con- stant difference between them, both being very variable. The only character not agreeing with P. lanceolata Gray, as described in the Synoptical Flora, is the color of the fruit, but this varies in several Species, and why not in this also. P, lanceolata Gray will there- fore become P. Virginiana Miller. It represents the most common form of that species. Physalis Philadelphica + is not very well understood. In our herbaria we find specimens under this name that belong to widely distinct species, viz: forms of P. angulata L.,and of P. aequata Jacq.,+ fruiting specimens of P. Alkekengi of P. Virginiana Mill and even of P. Carpenteri.§ As I understand P. Philadelphica Lam., it is a species nearly related to P. longifolia Nutt., || but with broader leaves. It is as often perennial as annual (the original description says annual), but is the only species of the eastern United States that fits the description of P. Philadelphica at all, except P. aequata Jacq., which, however, is not a native, but re- cently introduced. In describing P. longifolia, Nuttall states that it is nearly related to P. chenopodifolia. Evidently he meant P. chenopodi ifolia of Willdenow, * and not that of Lamarck.* 7 * Gray, Proc. Am. Acad. 10: 67. 1874. + Lam.

Ill. 2: 28. 1793. 908 The former has always been regarded as a synonym of P. Phila- delphica Lam. Lamarck cites Miller's figure 1, plate 206, but as stated before this is P. Vzrginiana. Undoubtedly he only looked at the figure without reading the description. Miller describes his plant as perennial and hairy, Lamarck his as annual and glabrous. As far as Miller's figure is concerned it might as well represent one as the other. One thing that has caused much confusion, is that P. Philadelphica is generally described as the only species in which the berry fills and even bursts the calyx, a character that is far from constant, and also found in ?. longifolia Nutt., and still more common in P. aeguata Jacq. The character is not given in the original descriptions of either P. Philadelphica Lam. or P. chenopodifolia Willd. It is given in the original de- scription of P. ovata Poir.,* which has been regarded as a syn- onym of P. Philadelphica Lam. To me it seems more likely to be a synonym of P. aequata. As far as this latter is concerned, it is rightly understood and the plant agrees perfectly with Jacquin's description and plate,f but unfortunately there is an older name P. 1socarpa Brot., described in Hornem. Hort. Hafn, and the species must take that name. N. J. Jacquin described P. Barbadensist in 1781. It is nearly related to P. pubescens and P. pruinosa, and has been regarded as a variety of the former species. It differs from it in its erect habit, its larger, more cordate and more toothed leaves, and its larger, more elongated fruiting calyx. It was based on Dillenius' figure of “ Solanum Barbadense nanum Alliariae folio,’ which is cited by Linnaeus as a synonym under P. pruinosa in the second edition of Species Plantarum. Elliott, therefore, adopted the name P. pruinosa for P. Barbadensis. The reference is, however, not found in the first edition of Species Plantarum, and according to Dunal, and others, Linnzus erred when he referred Dil- lenius’ plant to his species P. pruinosa. P. Barbadensis is well dis- tinct from P. pruinosa, but differs from P. obscura Michx. § in no other a. than in its hairiness. The two are but one aper * Poir., in Lam.

Am. 1: 149. 1803. 309 Michaux describes also P. obscura viscido-pubescens, which must be P. Barbadensis Jacq. or perhaps P. pruinosa. What P. lanceolata Michx.* is, is hard to determine. It should be a perennial species from North Carolina, with lanceo- late, subentire and subsessile leaves and hirsute calyx. No spe- cies has, as a rule, subsessile leaves, but the other characters fit two different plants. One is a rare plant from the Southern States, Florida, Alabama, etc. It has thin subentire leaves, but otherwise resembles most P. Virgimana, but with the pubescence of the stem somewhat viscid, and in this respect approaches 7* et- erophylla Nees. The other one, for which I adopt the name P. lanceolata, resembles much P. pumila Nutt.f (P. lanceolata hirta Grayt), except that it lacks the branching of the hairs on the lower surface of the leaves. It differs from P. Virginiana Miller (P. Pennsylvanica Gray§ and P. lanceolata Gray || mainly, as to the description) in the fruit, which is greenish yellow, not reddish; in the fruiting calyx, which is scarcely angled and scarcely sunken at all at the base; and in the leaves, which are thicker, dark green, and with entire margins. Although Dr. Gray rather describes P. Vir- giniana in his Synoptical Flora, he evidently regarded this form as the typical P. /anceolata Michx., as he names it in his Manual, 5th edition, P. Pennsylvanica lanceolata®. At first I doubted very much that it was the true P. lanceolata Michx., as it is mainly a western species, principally found west of Mississippi, but I found afterwards specimens collected by Ravenel in both North and South Carolina. Physalis lanceolata, as treated by Gray in the Synoptical Flora, comprises with its varieties not less than six, or perhaps rather seven, distinct species, viz.: i 1. P. Virginiana Mill (P. Pennsylvanica Gray, Man., 5th edition, and P. lanceolata Gray, Synoptical Flora, mainly). 2 Le arenicola: Kearney.” Ke a Michx. FL “Bo or, Am. I: nj 803. + Trans. Am, Phil, Soc.

There is a poor specimen, without flower and fruit, of the variety in the Torrey Herbarium at Columbia College, and another at Harvard from the original collection. Al- though they resemble somewhat P. /obata in the form of the leaves, etc. they may just as well belong to Chamaesaracha, as, for instance, a form of C. Coronopus Gray.*f Dunal in De Candolle's Prodromus places Solanum luteiflorum next before S. Coronopus, which is the same as Chamaesaracha Coronopus Gray. In the addenda to the Synoptical Flora, Gray also refers Chamaesaracha physaloides Greene $1 to P. lobata, which is another mistake. The former is Gray's own Physalis WrigAtz $8 as shown by the type, which is only a better developed specimen than Gray's. | Nuttall describes five new species, viz: P. angustifolia and P.

P. longifolia is the same as P. lanceolata levigata Gray, but is a good species and should be known by its Nuttallian name. P. pumila is cited by Gray as a synonym of P. lanceolata, but Nuttall's type specimen in the herbarium of the Philadelphia Academy of Sciences, shows that it is the same as 7. lanceolata hirta Gray. In the “ New Check List’’* it bears the name P. cinerascens (Dunal) Hitchcock,t with the synonym P. Pennsylvanica cinerascens Dunal.} This is simply an incorrect identification, as P. mellis cinerascens (Dunal) Gray $ does not grow in Kansas. In 1831 Nees ab Esenbeck published his revision of PAysalis in Linnæa.|| This excellent work seems to have served as the found- ation for Gray's revision in the Proc. Am. Acad. 10: 62-68. Gray follows Nees closely, but, as far as I can find, does not give him credit anywhere. The following new North American species are described: P. heterophylla, lanceifolia and Linkiana. P. hetero- Phylla and Linkiana have been discussed before. P. lanceifoliaf is mainly Mexican, but forms belonging to it come within the United States. Specimens collected by Schott and Thomas, and referred doubtfully to P. Wrightii by Gray,** belong here. It is nearly related to P. Wright and P. angulata, but has much smaller flowers. Specimens under the name P. lanceifolia Nees, collected by Rügelat the mouth of St. Mark's River, Florida, have caused much trouble’ and several new species have been proposed for the same. The cause of the confusion can easily beseen. The original distribution contains at least three distinct species. The specimens preserved in the Engelmann Herbarium represent two, one annual, a form of P. lanceifolia Nees, but with narrower leaves, and one perennial, a form of P. Virginiana Mill. In the Colum- bia College Herbarium it is represented by specimens exactly like the € original specimens ot P Pennsylvanica. spathulacfolia Torr. qt tt * List of Pteridophyta er Beer, growing without pp in North- eastern North America, in Memoirs of the Torrey Botanical Club, Vol, navn Spring.

Mex. at 163 1859. 512 was on these specimens of P. lanceifolia, at least in part, that Kunze based his P. Æfliottü.* It is so indicated on the label. His de- scription agrees, except to the pubescence of the calyx, which must have been taken from the specimens of P. Virginiana. The name P. viscosa spathulacfolia has therefore to give away to P. Elliott, which is the older. Kunze thinks that it may be P. lanceolata Ell. It might possibly be so (I have not seen Elliott's specimens); but from the original description, and according to Dr. Gray, who had seen Elliott’s herbarium, this is a form of P. viscosa. Gray included in his P. viscosa spathulefolia,t also narrow-leaved forms of P. viscosa L. They are, so far as I can judge, what Nees and Dunal regarded as P. Pennsylvanica L. but this is, as stated before, only a small-leaved form of P. viscosa proper. The only available name is P. maritima Curtis. In the original de- scription, Curtis gives only one synonym, viz.: P, pubescens Engel. & Gray, PI. Lindh. and Lindheimer's specimens belong to this va- riety of P. viscosa. It will be known as P. viscosa maritima (Curtis). In 1874, Dr. Gray published his revision of the genus in the Proc. American Academy. Here three species and several va- rieties are described. The species are P. Wrightit, P. hedreacfolia and P. Fendleri. A few remarks on P. Wrightiü were made under P. lobata. P. hederaefohat and P. Fendleri are also good species The name of the former has been changed in the * New Check List" to P. digitalifolia (Torr.) Britton.$ The change, however, was unwarranted. It is true that it is the same as P. Alkekengi? var. digitalifolia Torr.|| but this was simply a wrong identifica- tion. Dr. Torrey believed that it was P. Alkekengi digitalifolia Dunal* Dr. Gray also held that the identification was erroneous as he gives asa synonym under P. hederacfolia, P. Alkekengt ? var. digitalifolia (vix. Dunal) Torr. 1. c.

It scarcely deserves varietal rank. In a note just before P. grandiflora, Dr. Gray writes:* «P. Carpenteri Riddell, Cat. Fl. Ludov. (N. O. Med. and Surg. Journal 8: 758, 1852, name only), referred to Withania Morisoni in Bot. Gazette, 3: II, is some adventitious Athenaca.” In the collections there are about half a dozen specimens from Louisiana, Alabama and Florida. It is plain that it is not Withania Morisoni Dunal.[ It is not an Athenaea, as characterized by Bentham & Hooker or Dunal, as the corolla is not divided to or below the middle and its lobes are not valvate. It has the corolla of Physalis. The calyx is inflated, as in that genus, but not angled, in the original specimens often with very unequal lobes. The latter characters and the fact that the flowers are in fascicles seem to throw it out of Physalis and into Athenaea. But in P. Wright Gray, the flowers are some- times found in twos, threes or even fours, and in specimens of P. Carpenteri of later collections, as, for instance, Nash, no. 2503, the calyx-lobes are short and equal and the flowers solitary. I have compared the present species with P. Æptophylla Robinson & Greenman, t which is without doubt a Physalis, and the latter dif- fers in no respect except that the flowers are always solitary, some- what smaller, the lobes of the calyx equal, and the fruiting calyx a little larger and of somewhat firmer texture. I regard, therefore, P. Carpenteri as a Physalis, but what name shall it receive and how shall it be cited? Physalis Carpenteri Riddell, in Cat. Fl. Ludov. is a nomen nudum. In the Botanical Gazette, Dr. Chapman describes it under Withania Morisoni, but it is not W. Morisoni Dunal. The description is not long, but well characterizes the plant. Physalis Carpenteri Riddell, is given as a synonym. So here is a description and a name, hence a publication, and it should be cited: Physalis Carpenteri Riddell; Chapman in Bot. Gaz. 3: 11, 1878, as a synonym under Withania Morisonti Chap- man, not Dunal. A few changes are also here proposed in the limitations of * Syn. FL 2: pt. 1, 233. 1878. + DC.

It lacks the essential characters of the latter. The fruiting calyx is neither angled, nor ten-ribbed, nor reticulate. It is thin, indis- tinctly veined, closely fitting to the fruit and open at the mouth. The only floral character which differs from Chamaesaracha nana is the length of the calyx-lobes, which much exceed the fruit. The corolla of P. grandiflora is that of a Chamaesaracha, 1. e., widely rotate and white, or sometimes tinged with purple. In Physalis the corolla is open-campanulate rather than rotate and with a few exceptions more or less yellow. Evidently P. grandi- flora should be removed from Physalis. As it is so nearly related to Chamaesaracha nana (differing, as I thought, principally in the length of the calyx), I transferred it at first to that genus, but have decided at last to make it the type of a new one. I have so decided mostly from the fact that the calyx is at first somewhat inflated, a character never found in Chamaesaracha. This is not seen in herbarium specimens, but my authority is Prof. C. F. Wheeler, of Michigan Agricultural College, who knows the plant in the field. Physalis lobata is also taken out of the genus. It comes nearer to Chamaesaracha than to Physalıs in every respect except in the fruiting calyx. It differs however from both genera in the structure of the seeds, in the color and form of the corolla and in being somewhat fleshy. It is the type of a distinct genus. If two more of the species, P. microphysa and P. Alkekengt could be also removed, the genus would be a very natural one. In the former the fruiting calyx is nearly that of an Athenaea, while the corolla is of a true Physalis. In P. Alke- kengi, the corolla is whitish and much deeper cleft. If held dis- tinct from Physalıs, it would together with P. Sendtneri constitute a genus (Megista Tourr.) of European origin, while PAysalis proper is principally American. The genera included in the monograph all belong to the tribe Solaneae: Corolla (mostly short) with regular limb plicate or valvate in the bud, usually both, z. ¢., the sinuses or what answ to them plicate and the edges of the lobes induplicate.

Gray includes M. tenuis in M. solanaceus, but a comparison be- tween Miers' figures of the first and Schlechtendal's plate of the second, is only needed to show that the structure of the flower is very different. The herbarium specimens show the same characters. The specimens of M. tenuis from the original collection, the only ones I have seen, are much more slender than any of M. solanaceus and have much narrower leaves. Mexico: Coulter, no. 1220. (Type).

There are two sheets from the original collection in the Torrey Herbarium and neither in flower. It is doubtful to which genus they belong. Very likely Dunal’s determination was correct.

One section (Me- gista), consisting of two species, is of European origin, and about half a dozen are natives of India and Australia. The rest are American,* although several have been introduced into the Old World and Australia. The number of recognized species is about 50. The actual number is, however, much larger as there are many yet to be described. Mexico is especially rich in species and of those native to that country perhaps more than one-half re- main unnamed. * Photographs, one half natural size, have been taken of all North American spe- cies and varieties of Physalis except P. Texana and P. Neo-Mexicana. Insome cases interesting forms have been added. What makes the set more valuable is that it in- cludes the photographs of all type specimens preserved in American herbaria, except that of P. angustifolia, which is a mere fragment, The photographs number about 60, and may be had at about 15 cents each, either from Dr. Chas.

This species is very near related to P. pruinosa, and has been labeled by me P. pruinosa neomexicana in the herbaria, but as its range is widely separated from that of P. pruinosa, it is perhaps best to regard it as distinct. It differs in the strict habit, the finer pubescence, the shorter, more round and obtuse leaves and the sharper angled fruiting calyx, which resembles that of P. subulata, but does not have the subulate tips characteristic of that species, The following specimens have been examined: New Mexico: Fendler no. 679 and 678 in part, 1847; E.

It is a native of Peru, Mexico, etc. No specimens of the typical form have been collected in the United States. The only specimens approaching it are those collected by Rugel near St. Mark's River, Florida (Herbarium of Missouri Botanical Garden), but these have much narrower leaves. Two forms are found, however, in the United States, which come nearer to this species than to any other, although they connect it with P. Wright and P. angulata respectively. In the first the leaves are more or less sinuately toothed and often more strongly veined, resembling those of the preceding species, which it also resembles in general habit and in the sparse scabrous hairs on the upper parts, but differs in the small flowers (only 3-5 mm. in diameter), which in form perfectly agree with the true P. lanceifolia, that is, they are truly campanulate. The following specimens belong to this form : Arizona: Lemmon, 1881 (in part); Dr. Sonden. no. 375, 1867 ; Loew, 1875; Maj. Thomas; Schott,no. 2. (The last two, doubt- fully referred to P.

The other form connects P. lanceifolia with P. angulata. The . leaves are broader than in the typical form and often with sharp teeth as in P. angulata, but the very long peduncles, small round fruiting calyx, and general habit, make it more nearly related to P. lanceifolia. Its range is much more northern than that of the typical P. lanceifolia and more northwestern than that of P. angu- lata, as can be seen from the following specimens studied: Illinois: Vasey, 1862.

Broad-leaved forms somewhat resemble P. macrophysa, with which they may be confused if the fruit is not examined. Narrow- leaved specimens seem to connect it with P. longifolia. P. Philadel- placa is generally described as an annual. In the western part of its range, it is, as a rule, perennial from a deep rootstock resemb- ling that of P. longifolia, P. macrophysa and P. Virginiana ; but per- ennial specimens have been collected as far east as New Jersey (F. L. Stevens). In the East, as a rule, itis an annual with branch- ing roots, and somewhat resembles P. irocarpa. The perennial Specimens generally have broader leaves, of a somewhat firmer tex- ture, and are less oblique at the base, but these characters are not constant, and I have failed to find any character which would warrant the division of the species into two, one annual and one perennial. The general habit, the form and size of the flower, the peduncles and the fruiting calyx are always the same. If it can be divided into two, the name P. Phnladelphica should be retained for the annual form. P. Philadelphica ranges from Rhode Island and Georgia to Texas and Nebraska. The following specimens have been ex- amined : New York: G. W.

P. longifolia is nearly related to the preceding. Nuttall, in the original description, states that it is very near to P. chen- opodifolia. Probably he meant P. chenopodifolia Willd. (changed to P. atriplicifolia Jacq.), which is the preceding species, not that of Lamarck. The original specimens of Nuttall are not of the normal type. They lack the strict habit characteristic of the common form. The leaves are also more plainly lanceolate than usual.

Seeing only the broad-leaved forms, nobody would hesitate to do so, but the narrower leaved forms, as for instance the type speci- mens of Nuttall, can scarcely be distinguished from. the broad- leaved ones of P. lanceolata, except by the forked pubescence.

Virginiana is, next to P. heterophylla, the most common of our species. It grows in rich soil and frequents open places, such as fields, roadsides, borders of woods. Specimens from about IOO localities have been examined, which show that it is common from Michigan and Minnesota to Colorado and Louisiana. Be- sides I have seen specimens from the following states : New York: Dr. N. L. Britton. South Carolina: Wm. Canby. Florida : Chapman. Georgia: Le Conte. Manitoba: E. Bourgeau, 1859. Like P. heterophylla, it is very variable. The original form de- scribed and figured by Miller is more densely hairy, with longer hairs, sometimes even somewhat glutinous, and with broad and more deeply sinuate-toothed leaves. It is comparatively rare and probably had not been seen by Gray, when he applied the name P. Virginiana to P. heterophylla Nees. The following speci- mens of this form are in our herbaria: Illinois: Vasey. Michigan: - C. F. Wheeler, 1890. Minnesota : Dr. Jarvis ; J. H. Sandberg, no. 975, 1891. Towa: Hitchcock, 1889; J. A. Rolfs, 1891 Tennessee: Gattinger, 1886; Scribner, 1890. Missowi: LH Pammel. Kansas: J. E. Bodin. Wisconsin: S. N. Watson. The common, less hairy form has more indistinctly toothed leaves. The usual color of the plant is more or less yellowish green. The Florida specimens are more slender and have thinner leaves, and are in some cases hard to distinguish from forms of - 945 P. arenicola. In the upper Mississippi Valley, a dark verdigris- green form, with small thickish sinuately lobed, nearly smooth and shining leaves and short and wide fruiting calyx, is sometimes found. It is represented by the following specimens : [inois : W.S. Moffatt, 1893. Wisconsin: E. A. Mearns, 1800. Minnesota: G. B. Aiton, 1890. There is also a form near P. Virginiana,the position of which is uncertain. It is temporarily placed here as a variety : Physalis Virginiana intermedia n. v. Leaf very thin and subentire, gradually tapering in to a winged petiole; pubescence in the young plant somewhat viscid. This is a very peculiar plant, in pubescence and flower resem- bling forms of P. heterophylla, in the form of the leaves recalling P. lanceolata, but in their texture P. Carpenter. The general habit and fruiting calyx are those of P. Virginiana which it comes nearest. The following specimens are preserved in the herbaria ; Southern States: S. B. Buckley (type). Alabama: S. B. Buckley. Texas: Lindheimer, 1828. Indiana: N. L. Britton. . Physalis arenicola Kearney, Bull. Torr. Bot. Club, 21: 485. 1894. Stems 2-4 dm., slender, much branched, striate, from a slender creeping rootstock; plant light green; pubescence mostly of simple hairs, but sometimes a little glandular, in age scarcely any, eXcept on the veins of the calyx; leaves usually small, blade 175-6 cm. long, but sometimes up to 8 cm., ovate, cordate, trun- cate or cuneate at the base, irregularly angulate-dentate, pubes- cence, if any, along the veins, which are generally prominent and conspicuously reticulated ; peduncles slender ; calyx-lobes triangu- lar-lanceolate, equalling the tube; corolla 134-2 cm. in diam., light yellow; anthers yellow; fruiting calyx 3 cm. long, narrowly ovoid or rather oblong-pyramidal or nearly cylindric, conspicu- ously reticulated ; berry light yellow. It much resembles certain forms of the preceding species, but is generally more slender, light green, but not yellowish. As the name indicates, it grows in sandy soil, and seems to be limited to Florida. The following specimens have been examined : Florida: G. V. Nash, no. 1170, 1894 (type); B. F. Seeds, N 946 1886; Bacon; Mary C. Reynolds, 1877 ; Chapman ;* Fredholm no. 65, 1893; Curtiss, no. 2210, in part. H. J. Webber, no. 125. 22. Physalis ciliosa n. sp. Perennial from a slender creeping rootstock, upright, branched, 2-3 dm. high; stem terete, scarcely striate, together with the pedicels and calyces ciliate with long and white jointed hairs; leaves 4-7 cm. long, ovate, truncate or slightly cordate at the base, subentire or with a few coarse teeth, sparsely hairy on the veins, long-petioled, thin and not conspicuously veiny ; peduncles very slender; calyx turbinate, resembling that of P. arenicola ; corolla funnelform-campanulate, apparently without dark mark- ings ; fruiting calyx ovoid-pyramidal, sunken at the base. In habit it most resembles P. heterophylla ambigua, but differs in being much more slender, in the thin leaves, in the longer and finer hairs and in the corolla, calyx and peduncles, which are those of P. aremicola. lt might have been included in the following group, but itlacks the short dense pubescence, which is character- istic to the species belonging there. The following are the speci- mens found in our herbaria. Florida : Chapman (in Herb. J. Donnell Smith, Harvard Uni- versity, Columbia College, and A. W. Chapman, type); Curtiss, no. 27,in part.

Perennial from a slender creeping rootstock, 17—1 m. tall, at first erect, later generally decumbent and spreading, viscid and glandular, and villous with long spreading jointed flat hairs ; leaves large, blade generally over 5 cm., generally broadly cordate, often acute but very rarely with an acumination, thick, more or less sin- uately toothed, or sometimes subentire ; calyx long- villous; lobes triangular, generally shorter than the tube; corolla 1 14-2 cm. in diameter; anthers generally yellow; berry yellow. P. heterophylla grows most commonly in rich soil, especially where the surface has been disturbed in some way, as for instance in fields, on road banks and rubbish heaps. Its range is from New Brunswick and Saskatchewan to Colorado, Texas and Florida, but it is most common in the Upper Mississippi Valley. A few specimens have also been collected in California. Specimens from over 100 localities have been examined. These show that it is nearly impossible to characterize any good varieties, as the species is very variable and the different forms grade into each other. In shaded places, as, for instance, among bushes, it often be- comes upright, nearly smooth, scarcely at all viscid, and with large and thin leaves. The author has described it as var. umbrosa,* but it scarcely deserves a varietal rank. A few of the specimens represented by this form are: Nebraska : P. A. Rydberg, no. 1398, 1893; Smith & Pound No. 78, 1892; Le Roy ; Hayden, no. 242, in part, 1854. Illinois: H F. Jaeger. Jowa: Hitchcock, 1889. Texas: Bigelow (Wipple’s Exp.). *Cont. U. S. Nat.

Vir- gimana Gray, not L.), but leaves smaller, blade not over 0.5 deci- long, rounded, ovate, scarcely at all cordate at the base, about 5 centimeters long, thin, somewhat repand-dentate or nearly entire; petioles as long as the leaves; peduncles as long as CH fruiting calyx or longer; corolla greenish y ee with brow center, 114-2 cm. in diameter; fruiting calyx as in P. hederafolia Gray, but of thinner texture, 3-4 cm. Jong. rounded ovoid, some what 10-angled, scarcely sunken at the bas The validity of this as a species may Ge doubted It is inter- mediate between P. heterophylla and P. hederacfolia and might be placed as a variety of either with about equal reason. It, perhaps, most resembles the latter, but differs in the thinner texture of the leaves and the fruiting calyx, in the larger flowers, and in the long white hairs. The following localities are recorded : Nebraska: P. A. Rydberg, no. 269, 1891 (type); nos. 271 and 270, 1891. 951 Kansas : E. Bartholomew, no. 2, 1892; E. A. Popenoe, 1875. Texas: G.

A. few specimens (Rydberg, nos. 270 and 271, especially the latter) are more grayish puberulent, have smaller flowers, and more rhomboid leaves, which are somewhat decurrent on the petioles and more oblique at the base. "They are similar to specimens in the Harvard Herbarium received from Jardin des Plantes, Paris, and labelled P. chenopodifolia. 1 therefore took this form for P. chenopodifolia Lam. Although that species is also grayish pubes- cent, it is distinct from my plant, as can be seen from the original description. P. chenopodifolia stands in the same relation to P. Peruviana as the present form does to P. heterophylla. ~ 26. Physalis hederaefolia Gray, Proc. Am. Acad. 10: 65. 1874. Syn. Fl. 2: part 1, 235 ; Coulter, Cont. U.S. Nat. Herb. 2: 300. P.

C. C. Parry’s plant, which is the only one collected within the United States, differs from the typical specimens, in the shorter peduncles, the ovate more crenate leaves, and more glandular pubescence. It is, perhaps, distinct, but sufficient material is lack- ing. P. muriculata is very nearly related to P. Greenet, from which it differs principally in being a perennial. It connects the peren- nial Heterophyllae group with the annual Leptophyllae. Lower California: Ed. Palmer, no. 682, 1889. E. L. Greene, 1885. California : (River Side) C. C. Parry, 1882.

Not Medic.,* nor Walt.+ Perennial from a creeping rootstock, 3-6 cm. high, densely whitish or grayish tomentose with stellate pubescence; leaves . rounded cordate or the upper broadly ovate, coarsely sinuately toothed ; peduncles 2-4 cm. long, in fruit 4-6 cra. and reflexed; calyx densely stellate, lobes triangular, generally a little shorter than the tube; corolla 1.5-2 cm. in diameter, bright yellow with a purplish center, more or less stellate on the outside; anthers yellow or tinged with purple; fruiting calyx 3-5 cm. long, ovoid, acuminate, slightly 5-angled and a little sunken at the base. P. mollis, in its most typical form, as for instance the type specimens of Nuttall and E. Hall, no. 500, is well distinguished by its leaves, which are cordate, coarsely angulate-toothed, very densely white-stellate and of a firm texture. Often, however, the pubescence is less dense and the broad teeth of the leaves less dis- tinct and it passes into the first variety. A. A. Heller's no. 1453, from Texas, has the broad leaves, the large dentation characteristic of P. mollis, but in the thinness of the leaves, the pubescence and general habit, resembles more the South American, z. ¢., the typical, form of P. viscosa. It must be regarded as a form intermediate between the two. P. mollis ranges from Arkansas to Mexico. It grows in thickets and along streams, but rarely near the coast where its place is taken by P. viscosa.

Perennial, decumbent or ascending, greener than the rest of the stellate species; stems terete with decurrent ridges, a little pruinose-stellate; leaves small, 2-4 cm. long, ovate, somewhat oblique at the base, entire or repand, the upper often opposite; peduncles 1-3 cm. long, longer than the petioles and in fruit often as long as the leaves; calyx pruinose, a little stellate, on the margins stellate-ciliate; lobes triangular, shorter than the tube; corolla yellow with a dark spot; fruiting calyx subglobose, 10- angled, somewhat sunken at the base. P. fuscomaculata has been regarded as a form of P. viscosa, which it comes nearest, but it differs in the pubescence and in its more branched habit and greener hue. It has somewhat the same relation to P. viscosa as P. Fendleri, or rather the var. cordifolia, has to P. mollis. It is a native of South America and, as far as I know, has been collected but once within the United States, viz., by C. Mohr, no. 27, in 1891, at Mobile, Ala., where it was growing among ballast. Mr. Mohr's specimens resemble perfectly speci- mens distributed by Cosson. These are from France, where the plant is introduced into the botanic gardens. > 83.

Rootstock slender and creeping ; plant often perfectly smooth, except the margins of the calyx-lobes, rarely sparingly stellate when young; leaves very thin and veiny, oblong, spatulate, broadly oblanceolate or in luxuriant specimens (as, for instance, one in J. Donnell Smith's herbarium) broadly oval, entire or wavy, decurrent into a winged petiole ; peduncles 2-3 cm. long, slender, erect, but in fruit reflexed and often 5 cm. long; calyx generally 360 smooth, except the margin, which is stellate;* lobes triangular ; corolla 1 22-2 cm. in diameter, yellow with dark centre; fruiting calyx generally a little shorter than in the next species. Specimens of this have been labelled P. lanceolata or P. viscosa spathulaefolia. The form of the calyx,which is nearly perfectly gla- brous except on the margin, places this nearest to P. angustifolia into which it grades. The leaves often resemble in form those of ?. viscosa maritima, from which they differ in texture and pubescence. The stellate species grade more or less into each other and it is difficult to draw the lines between them, but as far as this is con- cerned, the nearest relationship is with P. angustifolia, and if not regarded as a species it should be placed as a variety of that plant rather than of P. vescosa.

Calyx campanu- = 965 late, Poser in pri depu sharply 5-angular and reticulate, enclosing the t; lobes connivent; corolla flat, rotate, penta- gonal in parame veiny, os or purplish ; anthers opening by a longitudinal slit. Seeds comparatively few, kidney-shaped, some- what flattened, with thick margin, rugose-tuberculate The genus is represented by only one species, which has gener- ally been included in Physalis, but it is so different from all the other species of that genus that it is better regarded as a dis- tinct type. It was regarded as such by Rafinesque, but his de- scription is faulty. As he, however, cites Physalis lobata Torr. as the type of the genus, his generic name must be taken up. Dr. Gray made it a section under the name of Chamae- physalis. Quincula differs from Physalis by the form and color of the corolla, by the different habit and by the seeds. I. Quincula lobata (Torr.)

Common on the high plains, at the base of the Rocky Mountains, extending from Kansas to California and Mexico. Specimens from about 80 localities examined. 4. Leucophysalis. A tall erect viscid and villous annual, with entire leaves, decur- rent on the petiole. Peduncles generally in fascicles of 2-4 from axils of the leaves. Calyx campanulate, 5-lobed, at first a little in- flated, but soon filled with and closely fitted to the berry, thin, neither angled nor ribbed, faintly veiny, open at the mouth, 966 lobes exceeding the fruit. Corolla rotate, white, sometimes tinged with purple and generally ochroleucous or yellow in the center, 3-4 cm. in diameter; limb plicate. Stamens inserted near the base of the corolla; filaments long and slender, anthers oblong, opening by a longitudinal slit. Style and stigma as in Physalıs. Seeds kidney-shaped, flattened, punctate. Only one species, hitherto included in Physalis, but all the characters of the corolla, as well as most of those of the calyx, point towards Chamaesaracha. The fruiting calyx however ex- eeds the fruit, and is, according to Prof. C. F. Wheeler, somewhat inflated at first. It is, however, never angled or ribbed as in Physalıs. 1.

Not Gray. Much branched from a perennial base, at first upright, at length spreading, cinereous-puberulent with short branched somewhat ulate or viscid hairs, generally also viscidly hirsute or villous with long and branched hairs, especially on the calyx; leaves ob- lanceolate to obovate-rhombic, generally acutish and tapering into a short petiole, generally deeply lobed, but varying from sub- entire to pinnatifid; calyx-lobes triangular, generally acutish ; corolla about I cm. in diameter,* white or ochroleucous, some- times violet purplish ; berry from 5-8 cm. in diameter. C. conioides grows on dry clayey soil from southern Kansas to California and Mexico. The most common form is very hirsute, often glandular viscid, but not at all stellate. The leaves are gen- erally spatulate or broadly oblanceolate, and more or less lobed. To this form may be referred the following specimens: Kansas: Gurney, 1891. Oklahoma Territory: M. A. Carleton, no. 211, 1891. Colorado : C. S. Crandall, 1892. Texas: Bigelow, 1851 (Mex. Bound. Surv.); Schott, no. 4-7, 1851 (Mex. Bound. Surv.); 1852; Thurber, no. 185, 1851; G. R. Vasey, 1881; J. Reverchon, no. 67b, 1882; M. E. Jones, no. * Specimens collected by Edw. Palmer (no. 921 and 922, 1880) in Mexico,have flowers 2-214 cm. in diameter. These are more robust and have also larger leaves, more decidedly rhombic in outline and lobed only above the middle, resembling the more entire leaves of Verbena officinalis. It may be distinct,but the material seen is insufficient. Po E M EIU JUS NI 370 3704, 1884; Mary Croft, no. 75, 1885-6; Reverchon (Curtiss, no. 2105). New Mexico: C.

This form agrees very well with the description of Withania sordida Dunal, but a fragment of the type (Berlandier, no. 2076) is in the Torrey Herbarium, and this belongs rather to the less hirsute and more stellate form, which approaches C. Coromofus. This form has also generally narrower and less lobed, sometimes subentire, leaves. It served, if I mistake not, as the types from which the descriptions of Solanum comoides Dunal and S. Lin- secum? Buckley were drawn. It is represented by the following: Texas: C. Wright, no. 531, 1849; J. Reverchon, no. 676, 1891; V. Havard, 1883; Buckley, 1875 (S. Linsecumit).

Calyx campanulate, 5-cleft, with lobes longer than the tube, in fruit enlarged, membranaceous, but not inflated, closely fitting the fruit, neither ribbed nor angled, faintly veined. Corolla tubular with five short lobes, yellowish or purple. Stamens inserted be- low the middle of the tube, included, unequal, with very short an- thers opening by a longitudinal slit. Fruit nearly dry, light 372 colored. Seeds nearly orbicular, very flat, faveolate-reticulate with a thin membranaceous margin Oryctes consists of one species, discovered and described by Dr. Watson. The original collection lacked specimens in good fruit, and his description is a little imperfect. Good fruiting specimens have been collected by Shockley, and these show that the fruiting calyx is enlarged just as much as it is in Chamae- saracha, which the plant also resembles somewhat in habit, and that the seeds are wing-margined.
